Beyond Radio is the place where music discovery and music nostalgia collide. It is your one-stop source for playlists, music charts, remembrances and recommendations. Our Podcast and music therapy playlists combine elements of nostalgia and discovery, while my blog entries reflect on our musical past through the lens of my personal charts from decades past. I weave a story that includes the connection between artists, chart facts and personal anecdotes that hopefully conjure a connection to the soundtrack of your own life. The current charts and playlists are updated monthly or bi-monthly (bi-weekly for the BR250) and are curated based on a passionate audience that produce their own personal charts weekly.
In the song’s 2nd week, the Shawn Mendes song “If I Can’t Have You” jumps 5-1 on the strength of 25 adds. It secured 6 top 5 entries including 2 #1’s. This pushed “Me!” down to #2 in it’s 3rd week, now on 75 charts.
Kylie Minogue stays in the top 5 for a 2nd week, moving up 1 to #3 with “New York City”. It’s my favorite song by her since “Right Here Right Now” (with Giorgio Moroder) hit #1 on my chart in 2015. Before that she reached #3 on my chart in 2011 with “Aphrodite” and #1 in 2000 with her deut with Robbie Williams “Kids”.
Rita Ora continues her busy year and places at #4 with her collaboration with Kygo “Carry On”, up from #24 last week.
The next 3 songs are all brand new this week as well as collaborations, lead by Logic and Eminem with “Homicide”. Next up Ed Sheeran and Justin Bieber debut “I Don’t Care” at #6. Should have a big week next week. #7 belongs to the 3rd Madonna single in the last month “Crave”, assisted by Swae Lee. All 3 are still in the top 15, with “I Rise” rising to #10 and “Medllin” dropping to #15.
You can listen to the top 40 plus this week on Spotify.
