Chart notes:
   Brazilian drag queen Pabllo Vittar surges ahead five notches this week to take over the #1 spot on the LGBT chart with "Amor de Que". The international superstar recently played her first gig in Australia, performing at the 2020 Sydney Gay & Lesbian Mardi Gras celebration.

   Six songs fell off the chart this week to make way for six new songs. The highest debut of the week was "Boring People" by British singer L. Devine, entering the chart at #45. When she came out publicly as a lesbian in 2018, she remarked that "It's kind of nice now that there can be a lesbian artist who just happens to be a pop star, or a pop star who happens to be queer."

   Chart positions are based on points assigned from (1) the previous week's position, (2) length of time on the chart, (3) views on YouTube from the past seven days, (4) percentage of increase in views from the week prior, (5) my votes, and (6) any votes I've received by Wednesday morning. If you'd like to vote for your favorite songs, please feel free to leave a comment on this blog or send me a private message (see the contact info above).
