REVIEWING THE CHARTS: 02/03/2024 (SZA, Central Cee, Pozer)

Beyoncé may have the #1 for a second week with “TEXAS HOLD ‘EM” but the real winners on this UK Singles Chart are songs benefiting from songs above them plundering, partly thanks to everyone’s favourite arbitrary rule, Accelerated Chart Ratio (ACR). I am never explaining that rule, look it up, but you’d think maybe we’d get a surge of new songs, right? No, it’s a pretty minimal week, and I’m not complaining. Welcome back to REVIEWING THE CHARTS!

Rundown

As always, we start with our notable dropouts, songs exiting the UK Top 75 - which is what I cover - after five weeks in the region or a peak in the top 40, and we have… unless I’m missing something, surprisingly little of note here? We bid farewell to “BACK TO ME” by Hitler, Goebbels and an uncredited Freddie Gibbs, “Ophelia” by The Lumineers, “Toxic” by Songer (thank God), “Sprinter” by Dave and Central Cee and of course, Lewis Capaldi’s “Someone You Loved” but that’ll be back soon enough.

Okay, so as for returns, we just get Ye’s “Runaway” featuring Pusha T back at #48, but our notable gains are where this week gets actually interesting, because we actually have quite a few, particularly in the top 40, thanks to ACR as mentioned but also potentially some TikTok-related industry politics that probably act in parallel with each other, but we start with “Thank You (Not So Bad)” by way too many brain cells at #68, “Soaked” by Shy Smith at #51, “vampire” by Olivia Rodrigo at #44 and “Evergreen” by Richy Mitch & the Coal Miners at #41. Then the top 40, where all Hell breaks loose, though most of these songs are actually pretty good: “Birds in the Sky” by NewEra at #40, “Made for Me” by Muni Long at #37, “Never be Alone” by Becky Hill and Sonny Fodera at #35, “Whatever She Wants” by Bryson Tiller of all people at #31 (and yes, I think I get it now), “On My Love” by Zara Larsson and David Guetta at #28, “Scared to Start” by Michael Marcagi at #22, “Nothing Matters” by The Last Dinner Party at #16, “Lovers in a Past Life” by Calvin Harris and Rag’n’Bone Man at #13, and finally - unfortunately - we have “CARNIVAL” by Adolf Hitler and Ty Dolla $ign featuring Playboi Carti at #9. Yes, it’s Rich the Kid’s first top 10 hit and no, you should not care.

Our top five should sound pretty normal, apart from a new entry into the top 10 at #5 as Djo gets his first with “End of Beginning”. I guess Steve Lacy can be a one-hit wonder twice. Aside from that, well, it’s all pretty expected: “Stick Season” by Noah Kahan at #4, “Beautiful Things” by Benson Boone at #3, “Lose Control” by Teddy Swims at #2 and Bey at #1. I like how this top five is a herd of angsty indie rock-adjacent white dudes led by the queen of the hive.

NEW ARRIVALS

#61 - “Love On” - Selena Gomez

Produced by The Monsters & Strangerz and Isaiah Tejada

Man, one of the few times that a mainstream artist releases a well-received and popular album that I think is absolutely brilliant, if not perfect, and none of it charts in the top 75. I’m not revealing who that is, if you know, you know. No worries, guys, we have Selena Gomez instead! God… to be honest, I like to give Selena the benefit of the doubt more than often, and I actually really like this song for its quirks as I’ll discuss later, but it’s pretty funny that this song starts with the French language only for all of that effortlessly seductive aura to be replaced with “Wait ‘til I get my love on”. What? In fact, this song is incredibly clunky in its sexiness or lack thereof, and if you think it’s to fit an already constructed rhyme or construction… why does it sound this awkward and almost improvised? “Screaming yes in quotations”, “night shift but with all the perks” (or Percs?), “why are we conversating over this steak tartare”? Yes, Julia Michaels, I knew you wrote this song before I checked the credits, you didn’t need to make it too obvious. Now I actually love this song, it’s so artfully stupid in execution: Selena sounds Auto-Tuned to Hell as always but it doesn’t grant her any rhythm with that robotic hook slipping over itself, as if the verses don’t embarrass her enough: Isaiah, listen, why leave her only with the clipping bassline and add all those accentuative vocal effects? It’s almost cruelty. She doesn’t even sound like herself on the strained falsetto pre-chorus, especially not those backing vocals which you could easily convince me are Toro y Moi of all people, and the chorus promising that you should just wait until she has her love on before she loves on you, which is… what? Asexuals could write better songs about intimacy, but in all its goofiness, the song ends up winning me over on pure silliness. The production has a straightforward groove but a lovely disco swell to the strings, detailed vocal layering and those phased synths acting as stabs that make Selena’s rhythmic bruising in the chorus sound almost normal are the icing on top. This is an adorable little failure of a song, I kind of admire it. Push it in the same category as “Feather” by Sabrina Carpenter in being loveable nu-disco messes.

#49 - “Showtime” - Catfish and the Bottlemen

Produced by Dave Sardy and Ryan McCann

It’s been a five-year hiatus, but indie rock band Catfish and the Bottlemen are back to music, though with some departures and line-up changes, and oddly enough, all of that ties into the fittingly titled comeback single, “Showtime”. Yes, this song is about the strains of touring and life on the road as part of a band, but how that’s all ultimately worth it for how gratifying it is to make an impact on listeners and be performing to audiences, as well as being with the band members he loves to record and perform with. I love the breakneck pace of the bass and post-punk rhythm of the verses and pre-choruses with that soaring guitar lick, and I think that the lead singer Mr. McCann (of no relation to that one) has a solid control of his distorted nasal tone until that disappointing chorus comes in which doesn’t feel nearly as ambitious or arena-ready as it wants to be, mostly because McCann is mumbling and it halts the momentum of the entire song. Also, it starts really shoddy lyrically, it’s hard to sound profound when half of your chorus is moaning “fuck that shit, get on this”. It does end up contextualising itself better on repetitions, mostly because of the warm finger-snaps in the bridge that eventually evolve into a heartland rolick that gives the final chorus space to breathe in a muddy mix… then seems to never fully get its power back, replacing it with a gross basic synth that parades around a befuddled Bottlemen, until eventually the song is just a lo-fi piano recording that doesn’t feel like it’s entirely warranted its inclusion, though it wraps up the narrative nicely as he comes back home after touring. I really like the sentiment of this song and parts of what it’s going for but the chorus, which really makes or break an anthemic song like this, just loses me, which is really disappointing as the rest of the song focuses entirely on building up to it. I’m sure it’ll be a killer live, but that’s also with the caveat that when performing live, they can mess with the structure, the lyrics and the performance, as well as most importantly for this one, the mix… so I don’t think this song will ever sound as good on record as it could do at a festival, which considering the song’s content, is kind of beautiful.

#29 - “Kitchen Stove” - Pozer

Produced by Young Madz

It’s pretty weird that this is not the first time in recent memory that I’ve never heard of the lead rapper on a track but have seen a dozen or so credits for his producer. Unlike Rich Amiri, this is far from rage however, it’s a drill track, of course, with Young Madz being a New York producer who’s worked with Fivio Foreign, the 41 collective and sadly, Lil Mabu, as well as having produced a previously charting track from Russ Millions. Pozer, on the other hand, has no other songs, with this being a breakout track on TikTok as well as his debut single… that’s being distributed by Sony. Yeah, slick one there. To fully understand this, we need to look back two years for another fluke viral hit, “snowfall” by Øneheart and reidenshi, a Russian space ambient track with over 500 million streams on Spotify - yes, really. It debuted nearly exactly a year after release and eventually peaked at #57 in 2023 whilst Miley Cyrus’ “Flowers” was #1. Øneheart’s follow-up was another ambient track, “this feeling”, which is not nearly as successful and also not as good, mostly because it lacks as sticky of a lead as “snowfall” and falls more into a vaporwave-esque filter of hopelessness which resonates a bit less. It does sound ripe for sampling though, especially that tiny vocal lead at the tail-end, so I guess it makes sense that for a manufactured viral hit, Madz took a sped-up version of the Russian ambient song and put it over some of the most rote, typical Jersey drill percussion possible. He doesn’t do much chopping, mostly because you don’t need to - like I said, that vocal sample would be perfect under Jersey drill, and Madz had the exact same idea, I suppose. Pozer, despite the name, isn’t exactly a bad rapper, his flow is pretty typical but solid and his second verse goes into more introspective and paranoid territory, pretty befitting of the haunting production… my problem is his delivery and the way he’s mixed: he just sounds too obvious. For production as potentially eerie as this, the production needs to be way more textured and dynamic, and Pozer himself needs to be quieter in the mix - as do the bed squeaks. This feels like a perfect lay-up of an idea that would make both a great song and an easy hit just fumbled in execution. It’s still a functional song for sure, but it doesn’t hit the way it absolutely could have.

#18 - “I Will” - Central Cee

Produced by John Alexis and LIOHN

Cench has another single out as he seems to drip-feed these - if he keeps them all on the record, that debut studio album will be more like a greatest hits compilation. As for this new one… first of all, I need this guy to step away from women: he’s awkward, condescending, and has strange fixations on this girl’s mother, how “young” she makes her feel, as well as just the extents of the capabilities of his penis… as well as a song-long hyperfixation on her shaving her privates. Over an Ed Sheeran-sounding beat? The acoustic guitars don’t mesh with the distant vocal loops, his vocal mix sounds horrifically unprofessional as does his complete lack of melodic understanding or personality when trying to sing on the chorus. You’d think he’d try and pick up the rapping to make up for it but he sounds half-dead. Speaking of Ed Sheeran, even he raps better than this - and yes, that includes about sex and relationships. There’s so little in the beat to distract from Cench’s terrible performance and content, so this is just an embarrassing display of everything that he cannot do properly. The second top comment on Genius, so you know, the fans, is asking what the Hell this is, and I can’t say I disagree with the fans in this case. I know you love Drake, it doesn’t mean you have to be him.

#15 - “Saturn” - SZA

Produced by Carter Lang, Rob Bisel, Solomonophonic and Monsune

SZA’s finally released a highly-anticipated song she performed at the GRAMMYs that may be connected to some form of SOS reissue and… oh, this interpolates one of my absolute favourite albums of all time. The opening track to Canadian composer Mort Garson’s peaceful, dynamic and forward-thinking 1976 electronic album Mother Earth’s Plantasia may not be iconic to everyone, but I still get goosebumps listening to it and that’s even outside of its greater context where this is the opening suite to a themed, arguably conceptual record acting as a love letter to two different pets of the musician: the myriad of plants his wife grew in the home, and his admired Moog synthesizer that he composed the entire album on. Sadly, Garson passed in 2008, before the record could gain its underground cult following amongst music fans, and before its official reissue in 2019 which particularly benefits the opening track, which has since been used in advertisements and now ends up interpolated on SZA’s new single, which released as a surprise to her fans and feels like a pretty spiritual return to some of the sounds explored on CTRL, using the sprinkling nostalgic synths of “Plantasia” as a backing for her lamenting of how dull and monotonous life on Earth can be. It’s actually fascinating to use that sample considering how celebratory I’ve always seen Garson’s album of both the natural world and human  influence or appreciation of it, but definitely not a bad one as Lang, Bisel and co. add their own cascading synths to the dejected drum mix and warm guitars that flow this song swiftly into psychedelic territory, especially on the gorgeously harmonic chorus. My favourite moment may be the pre-chorus though, where SZA’s vocal layering filters into the static of both itself and the incessant hi-hat wearing itself out over time. It’s pure escapism for sure, much like a lot of this week, really, but it’s damn effective escapism, pulling you into this forest that, despite my general issue with fade-outs, makes sense to drift out of existence. The song’s about wanting to live on Saturn, I can just imagine that as the song fades out, we pan away from SZA and the camera focuses on the scarce night sky peppered with stars. If a song ever justifies its cop-out ending, then it’s doing something really right.

Conclusion

Yeah, the girlies really won this episode, didn’t they? SZA takes Best of the Week away easily with “Saturn” but “Love On” by Selena Gomez does take the Honourable Mention. As for the Dishonourable Mention, I think Pozer just frustrates me with “Kitchen Stove” whilst Central Cee handedly has the Worst of the Week because Jesus Christ, “I Will” is almost irredeemable on pretty much all fronts. As for what’s new on the horizon in the coming weeks, I’m unsure, but it will be interesting what new stuff arises as a result of the ACR clearout this week. For now, thank you for reading, and I’ll see you next week!

Tennis Champions Compete at Indian Wells in California

California is home to some of the greatest tennis champions, such as Billie Jean King, Venus Williams, and the Bryan brothers. The sport’s popularity in California has helped launch several professional tournaments throughout the state, including the BNP Paribas Open, also known as Indian Wells.

Aside from the four major tournaments, the California tennis event has become among the best-attended, earning Indian Wells the nickname “the fifth slam.” As such, the tournament’s list of past champions includes all-time great players.

The men’s tournament began in 1974. John Newcombe of Australia, a winner of seven grand slam singles titles, defeated America’s Arthur Ashe in the final. Despite the defeat, American men would enjoy great success at the event. John Connors would win the first of his three titles at the event in 1976 by defeating compatriot Roscoe Tanner. Between 1976 and 1981, Connors, Tanner, and American Brian Gottfried won the event. Tanner became the first champion to defend his title in 1979.

Larry Stefanki became the seventh American champion at Indian Wells in 1985. He was also the first player to win the event under best-of-five sets rules, defeating fellow American David Pate 6-1, 6-4, 3-6, 6-3.

American men struggled at the event during the late 1980s and early 1990s, with titles going to legends of the sport such as Boris Becker and Stefan Edberg. The 1990s, however, brought a spate of new American champions in California. Americans lifted the trophy each year from 1991 through 1997. Michael Chang won three championships, 14-time major winner Pete Sampras won two, and Jim Courier added two more. Andre Agassi reached finals in 1990 and 1995.

Many consider the 2001 final one of the most memorable matches in Indian Wells history. It was the last best-of-five match in tournament history. Sampras led their rivalry at 17 wins to 13 for Agassi headed into the match but had dropped their last two matches. The trend continued in California, with Agassi posting a 7-6(5), 7-5, 6-1 victory. It was Agassi’s third final at the event and his only victory.

American dominance ended at the turn of the century, though multiple American men have reached Indian Wells finals since 2000, including Andy Roddick in 2010. Three of the greatest male players of all time, Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, and Novak Djokovic, defined the tournament. The trio won 13 of 14 events between 2004 and 2017 and accounted for four finalist spots. Federer and Djokovic won the event five times each, a record, and both enjoyed three straight wins.

In 2021, Cam Norrie of Great Britain won the event. It became the first time since 2010 and only the second time since 2000 that a player without a major win lifted the trophy at Indian Wells, a testament to the strength of the field. Multi-major champion Carlos Alcaraz won the event in 2023 and defended his title in 2024, beating Daniil Medvedev on both occasions.

The women’s event began in 1989 and has an equally impressive list of champions, including many American greats. After Manuela Maleeva won the first event, Martina Navratilova earned back-to-back titles at Indian Wells. Early American winners include Mary Joe Fernandez, Lindsay Davenport, and tennis legends such as Steffi Graf and Monica Seles. More recent winners range from Iga Swiatek, champion in 2022 and 2024, and Naomi Osaka.

No female player has won more than two titles at Indian Wells. Navratilova remains the only back-to-back champion in tournament history.

The Beauty Of Gemina - Dark Rain

[theart2rock]

Ein Tag mit The Beauty Of Gemina

Als im Oktober des letzten Jahres Konzerte gerade noch so möglich waren, liessen sich The Beauty Of Gemina für einen Tag von einem Kamerateam des Schweizer TV Senders RSI begleiten. Dabei erzählt der Liechtensteiner Michael Sele, Kopf und Gründer der Indie Rock Band von der Geschichte des letzten Albums “Skeleton Dreams” welches es bis auf Platz 21 der Schweizer Hitparade geschafft hatte. Herausgekommen ist eine rund 40-minütige Dokumentation, welche nun veröffentlicht wurde. Aber nicht nur das Album selbst wird erklärt auch das Leben als Musiker in der aktuellen Situation.

WTNV Quick Rundown - 40 - The Deft Bowman

This episode was co-written with Zack Parsons. This episode also debuts Lauren Sharpe voicing Lauren Mallard and truly sees the pick up of the 'StrexCorp Arc'.

The riddle says he walks on four legs in the morning. He walks on two legs at midday. And at night he slithers from dream to dream, effortlessly, like the air we breathe. And we love him. Welcome to Night Vale.

A submarine has arrived, somehow, in NV. It is from a 'Russian fishing village' called Nulogorsk. Cecil reveals that NV and Nulogorsk were penpals for many years, until Nulogorsk became stuck in 1983 thus preventing NV from discussing the complexities of Michael Jackson's evolving career, so NV ended the exchange. The NV PTA are concerned that the arrival of the submarine may be an attempt to start up arguments about 'how to use a calendar' once more.

The SSP's genderless spokesbeing (who is described as having smoothly beautiful features, a voice which charms animals and milk-glass eyes) tells a story about how the past is the past and now is now to try and dispel these concerns.

When the submarine is investigated they find (shortly after a junior investigator goes in, screams and is prematurely aged by several years) an enormous bald-headed man with floral tattoos missing his left hand. There is a note in Russian which lists a number of items (himself included) but most concerningly the front page of a newspaper written by Leann Hart explaining that Nulogorsk was decimated by nuclear attack in 1983.

Cecil expresses concern, as they continued to talk to 'Nulogorsk' beyond that. He has Intern Zvi pull up that same newspaper headline from archives, which is different completely to the one found on the submarine. He wonders what this all could mean.

The man found on the submarine answers a rotatory phone that was with him, speaking into it in Russian. When the call is traced, it's discovered that Megan Wallaby is on the other end, calling from the recently fixed telephone near the TacoBell. Megan apparently talks about her loneliness to him. The man states in English that he is a gift from Nulogorsk and wishes to be a whole body donor for Megan.

The surgery is a quick and complete success, though with much therapy in her future, the consciousness of Megan is entirely within her new full body. Cecil enthuses that she is beautiful and will finally get to live the life of average little girl that she always wanted to, without being restrained by her 'congenital hand-bodiness'. This suggests, rather nicely, that having a enormous adult-male body is not going to stop Megan being seen as the young girl she actually is/identifies as.

Weather: "Offering" by Black City Lights. blackcitylights.bandcamp.com

There is a jade statue of a Cat Who Hums Almost Inaudibly in the Sheriff's Secret Garden.

The new NVTB's slogan is “We Will Show You Fun In a Handful of Dust,” as the director Madeline LaFleur insists that tourists don't need anything at all to have a good time and should visit NV just because.

Cecil is still receiving texts from Dana. The recent ones tell of her finding a mountain with a lighthouse upon it that has a blinking red light coming from it.

When Cecil tries to reply, his touch screen shows a photograph of his face that begins to slowly rot, the eyes deepening until they are sunken holes, long white hair growing rapidly, insects crawling from his slackened, decayed maw. And then the words "undelivered text" in all caps appear below it.

Lauren Mallard is the 'programme director' of the station under Strex's new management. Cecil describes her with genuine enthusiasm as being the kindest, most gentle manager he's ever had and 'a delight'. Lauren is very complimentary of Cecil and his show, but leaves very suddenly as soon as she's gotten Carlos' name out of Cecil after lamenting about the money they lost due to Carlos breaking the story about the danger behind their oranges.

Stay tuned next for live coverage of college basketball, as two universities select a dozen students to perform unnatural physical tasks on a wooden rectangle inside a cavernous scream-chamber. Good night, Night Vale. Good night.

Proverb: You can't get blood from a turnip. Listen, you need some blood? I can totally get you some blood. Set that turnip down and follow me to the blood. There’s a lot of blood.
