The theme is zombie apocalypse, not something that the song immediately suggests, but okay. And yes, that video was filmed during the pandemic &#8211; though the adherence to social distancing isn&#8217;t exactly 100% rigorous. Note that it&#8217;s now been on the charts for 10 weeks, so it&#8217;ll be eligible to get downweighted next week, if it&#8217;s far enough past its peak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It&#8217;s a little way down to the first new entry. <strong>&#8220;Breaking Me&#8221; by Topic featuring A7S <\/strong>climbs 4-3. <strong>&#8220;Savage Love (Laxed &#8211; Siren Beat)&#8221; by Jawsh 685 and Jason Derulo<\/strong> (the title is for legal reasons, we covered that last week) climbs 22-4, and is taking off in a big way. Derulo hasn&#8217;t had a top ten hit since 2017. <strong>&#8220;Watermelon Sugar&#8221; by Harry Styles<\/strong> climbs 11-7 to become his fourth top 10 single. <strong>&#8220;Don&#8217;t Need Love&#8221; by 220 Kid &amp; Gracey<\/strong> edges 10-9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>13. GRM Daily, M Huncho &amp; Dutchavelli &#8211; &#8220;Burning&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"400\" height=\"225\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/r7jibbi1uL4\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of those credits that makes you wonder how on earth that happened. GRM Daily isn&#8217;t an artist, it&#8217;s an online platform for grime artists. Even the video on their channel actually lists the artists as &#8220;M Huncho x Dutchavelli&#8221;. But the official artist credit puts GRM Daily&#8217;s name first. They&#8217;ve released records in this form before, but it&#8217;s the first one to make the singles top 40. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">M Huncho has had some minor hits over the last couple of years, none of them getting above 30. Dutchavelli was on Tion Wayne&#8217;s &#8220;I Dunno&#8221;, a top 10 hit which falls to 11 this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>&#8220;Party Girl&#8221; by Staysolidrocky <\/strong>climbs 17-16, and <strong>&#8220;Kings &amp; Queens&#8221; by Ava Max<\/strong>, which came out in March and entered the top 40 in early May, climbs 26-21. <strong>&#8220;ILY (I Love You Baby)&#8221; by Surf Mesa featuring Emilee<\/strong> climbs 27-22, and <strong>&#8220;Go Crazy&#8221; by Chris Brown &amp; Young Thug<\/strong> is up 30-33. <strong>&#8220;Be Kind&#8221; by Marshmello &amp; Halsey<\/strong>, which has also been hanging around since mid May, finally makes it to number 33. And finally&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>34. HOSH &amp; 1979 featuring Jalja &#8211; &#8220;Midnight (The Hanging Tree)&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"400\" height=\"225\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/kUDPr5xPYhM\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This has been out since April, mostly hovering in the 50s, but in a quiet week it finally gets into the chart. It&#8217;s an unremarkable dance cover of &#8220;The Hanging Tree&#8221; by James Newton Howard &amp; Jennifer Lawrence, from the soundtrack of <em>The Hunger Games<\/em>, which reached number 14 in 2014. HOSH is a German producer who&#8217;s been around since 2006 and finally gets his first hit. 1979 is an Italian producer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the album chart&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>1. Bob Dylan &#8211; &#8220;Rough and Rowdy Ways&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"400\" height=\"225\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/aIF0gkqvaQ0\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dylan is now 79, and this album sets a new record for the oldest artist to reach number one with a new album. (The &#8220;with a new album&#8221; bit is to screen out career retrospectives of old material by artists who are still alive; if you count those, the record belongs to Vera Lynn, who had a compilation reach number 1 when she was 92 &#8211; which, by coincidence, re-enters at 19 this week.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is Dylan&#8217;s 40th top ten album, but only his ninth number 1. The other eight are &#8220;The Free Wheelin&#8217; Bob Dylan&#8221; (1964), &#8220;Bringing it All Back Home&#8221; (1965), &#8220;John Wesley Harding&#8221; (1968), &#8220;Nashville Skyline&#8221; (1969), &#8220;Self Portrait&#8221; (1970), &#8220;New Morning&#8221; (also 1970), &#8220;Together Through LIfe&#8221; (2009) and &#8220;Shadows in the Night&#8221; (2015). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>2. Neil Young &#8211; &#8220;Homegrown&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"400\" height=\"225\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ogUdAHSU2y4\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Well, that&#8217;s, er, a video. It&#8217;s not the version on the album, obviously, which is a previously unreleased recording from 1974-5. Number 2 is very high for a Neil Young album, but he did have a number 1 with &#8220;Harvest&#8221; way back in 1972.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>6. Phoebe Bridgers &#8211; &#8220;Punisher&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"400\" height=\"225\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Tw0zYd0eIlk\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is rather good. Bridgers has been around for a while &#8211; this is her second album, and she&#8217;s also a member of Boygenius and of Better Oblivion Community Center (a collaboration with Conor Oberst) &#8211; but it&#8217;s her first chart appearance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>16. Lamb of God &#8211; &#8220;Lamb of God&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"400\" height=\"225\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/hBj0-dIU8HI\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From our good friends at Nuclear Blast Records, so you know what to expect. It&#8217;s their eighth album (there are also two more released under the name &#8220;Burn the Priest&#8221;), and their chart peak was back in 2015 when the previous album, &#8220;Sturm und Drang&#8221;, reached number 7 before dropping out of the top 40 the following week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>37. NSG &#8211; &#8220;Roots&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And finally for this week, a mixtape by rappers NSG, which includes both of their top 20 hits from, er, over a year ago.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I know I should be selling the post in the opening, but honestly, this is another of those weeks where very, very little is happening. 1 DaBaby featuring Roddy Ricch &#8211; &#8220;Rockstar&#8221; This is spending its sixth week at number one, but it&#8217;s only just got a video.
