Alexander Stewart holds tight at #1 with “Temporary” – do I hear a rumour of new music coming soon? In two weeks Sombr and the Fastest Riser (again) by Scott Helman will challenge for the top. Plus after a bit of summer house-cleaning, there are five debuts. I welcome back Natalie Imbruglia to the chart for the first time since 2002 as well as Italian dance producer BeatmartHz who last appeared in 2017. Toronto’s Kinga gets a new concurrent entry, and there are debuts by fellow Canadian Rêve and Italian electronic dance singer Lia Lefay. Enjoy!
I’ll be on vacation till August 30 and owing to lack of time there is no usual commentary/layout.
To listen to the songs either go to the Online version of the chart and click on the song titles, or to its Spotify playlist.
