Chart notes:
   American singer/songwriter Pink (from Doylestown, Pennsylvania) claims the #1 spot on the LGBT chart at midweek with "Irrelevant", moving up one more place from the weekend's #2 position. The track, a protest anthem whose lyrics advocate fighting for one's rights, has already reached the Top 10 on the official charts of four different countries (Canada, the U.S.A., New Zealand, and Mexico). The clip features footage of protests from the civil rights movement, LGBTQ rights, abortion rights, Black Lives Matter, the #MeToo movement, and calls for an end to gun violence. Over the past three days, the video for "Irrelevant" has gained an additional 124,741 views on YouTube (which is a huge increase of 7.41% since the weekend's chart!).

   Three videos move up into the Top 10 at midweek. Colombian singer Esteman leaps ahead 11 notches to #6 with "Un Día En Paris". Chinese actor/musician Jackson Wang climbs 9 spots to #9 with "Cruel". They're joined in the Top 10 by Mexican musician Raymix, who's moving up 9 more places to #10 with "Nada".

   Twelve songs fall off the chart to make way for twelve new songs. The highest debut at midweek was "Panorama" by American singer/songwriter Hayley Kiyoko, entering the chart at #32. Over the past half-week, the video for "Panorama" has gained an additional 30,459 YouTube views (which is a huge increase of 6.95% over the previous chart period!).
