This week has a video playlist:

20170319_realvideos

This week's highest new entry is by Fastball who had an NM #1 in 1998 and a couple of other hits. Those are not on Spotify, whilst this one is. I hope they won't withdraw this one from Spotify soon.

Gift's video features people dancing and lyrics over that. Still the people dancing does give it some status as a "video". I don't know if they plan to make any other videos for this. Bella & Fillipa's video is from Melodifestivalen and whilst it may be a live performance it sounds exactly like the single so either their recording equipment is very good there (probably is) or it isn't really a live performance. Not that they didn't perform it live but maybe they have cleverly dubbed over the studio recording.

Melina Mommas is one I put in the top 40 this week pretty much to get on the video show as she's so pretty. Rather distorts the chart. Hers was not the 5th best song this week although it was due to enter the chart lower. It made all the various cuts to get to the final list and was in the top 18.

There's an Ivana Raymonda track on my latest playlist with a very "sexy woman" video. It's made it through thus far so I'll see how it does . You can usually tell when a song has got in to the top 40 just to get on the video show as it sneaks in at the bottom end of the chart. (Not that that is an indicator, but if it charts into the top 20 you can assume it's got there on the basis of the song). Not that I should be doing that really as this is supposed to be an audio chart with the video just essential for qualification (but not how high it gets).

The video playlist this week contains only 26 songs. Only one song carries over from the playlist 3 weeks ago. (Strangely enough that is Jana Josephina who was on the last playlist then climbed 2 weeks in a row and held at #11 this week).

No change at #1, and Fastball leap to #2. The video features the singer at a speed-dating event where he is singing the lines to all the women who in turn ignore him and do things like put on make-up, message people on their phone and even walk out. At the end of the video, you see him leave with the woman organising the event after everyone else has left, but it's not certain (to me anyway) if she is escorting him out or leaving with him because she likes him. In any case, after a comment I left on this video, they are going to arrange that their first two albums can be available on Spotify in the UK. I'm not sure if this song will make it to #1, and I don't think it's as good as "The Way" (which did reach NM #1).

Of the new entries - well let's focus on Ivana Raymonda Van Der Veen who has made a lot of videos this year and is very pretty, but until now I haven't really liked the songs. Still I do like this one and am awaiting its appearance on my next video playlist. She's even prettier than Melina Mammas... Or maybe just sexier.

There's a singer called Ellie Rose on my current playlist who looks likely to enter high this week. That's mainly because it's a nice song though.

I even know some songs from your charts (Crucified, Dream On, I Go Where You Go and .... Castle On The Hill).
"I Go Where You Go" is amazing.

Indeed, possibly she will be my new obsession favourite from new singers.

Incidentally there appear to be two singers called Ellie Rose. The one due to enter my chart this coming week has a song called Plastic City and has never been on the X-Factor.
