Midweek Chart: 14th July 2021

Twice a week, Tad's LGBT Music Chart brings you the Top 50 music videos by LGBT artists from around the world.

Midweek Chart for 14th July, 2021



Chart notes:
   American singer/songwriter Pink (originally from Pennsylvania) hangs onto the #1 spot on the LGBT Midweek Chart with "All I Know So Far". Pink wrote this song after she contracted Covid-19 in April 2020 and thought she might die... she says she wanted to write a song looking back on her life and leave that as her legacy in case she didn't survive. The track is currently at #7 on the MediaBase Hot AC Singles Chart in the U.S.A. It's also reached the Top 10 on the official radio airplay charts in Canada (currently at #5), the United Kingdom (at #3 for the past 2 weeks), and New Zealand (at #6). Over the past three days, the video for "All I Know So Far" has gained an additional 477,738 views on YouTube (which is an increase of 5.53% over the previous chart).

   Six videos move up into the Top 10, including two from Brazilian drag queens (Gloria Groove rises 13 spots to #5 with "Bonekinha (Dolly)", while Pabllo Vittar rebounds 7 places to #10 with her former #1 hit "Ama Sofre Chora"). Meanwhile, a collaboration between two other Brazilian artists (Mateus Carrilho and MC Dricka) also breaks into the Top 10, with "Pancada" up from #12 to #8. Transgender English singer Cavetown climbs 5 notches to #6 with "Ur Gonna Wish U Believed Me". Canadian vocalist Theo Tams rises 8 more spots to #7 with "Jeckyll Hyde Love". And finally, English singer Calum Scott jumps ahead 14 notches with "Biblical" to reach #9.
 
   Thirteen songs fall off the chart to make way for thirteen new songs. The highest debut was "Nothing But the Love" by American musician Stephen Wrabel (who's originally from Texas, but now resides in California), entering the chart at #27. The track is currently in the Top 40 (at #38 this week) on the MediaBase Hot AC Singles Chart, one of the official radio airplay charts in the U.S.A. Wrabel performed the song live at the 2021 Los Angeles Pride Festival last month, telling Bustle magazine that he sees Pride as a chance "to spread awareness, to spread hope, to celebrate. Because I know firsthand what that means to someone." Over the past half-week, the video for "Nothing But the Love" has gained an additional 51,832 YouTube views (which is an increase of 17.95% over the chart prior).
