Chart notes:
There's a new #1 on the LGBT chart at midweek, as Italian pop/rock quartet Måneskin moves up one more place from the weekend's #2 position with "The Loneliest". According to the song's Wikipedia page, it has appeared on the official charts of 26 different countries and has reached #1 in two of them (Italy and Belgium). Over the past three days, the video for "The Loneliest" has gained an additional 2,362,873 views on YouTube (which is a huge increase of 5.68% since the weekend's chart!).
Three videos move up into the Top 10 at midweek, including a return from a former #1 hit: British vocalist Sam Smith (originally from Hertfordshire, England) and transgender German singer Kim Petras are rebounding back up 3 places to #8 with "Unholy". British singer Girli (from London, England) climbs 5 notches to #7 with "I Really F**ked It Up". They're joined in the Top 10 by American singer/songwriter Cassidy King (from Chardon, Ohio), who's leaping ahead 10 spots to #10 with "Matcha Tea".
Sixteen songs fall off the chart to make way for sixteen new songs. The highest debut at midweek was "Oy Na Hori" by Ukrainian musician Artem Pivovarov, entering the chart at #30.
