Chart notes:
It's rare that a video spends two non-consecutive weeks at #1 on Tad's LGBT Music Chart, but Australian musician Hollie Col accomplishes that feat this weekend with "Two Step Plan". The song reached #1 on this chart three weeks ago, and now it has returned to the top spot by moving up 2 places from the midweek's #3 position. Over the past four days, the video for "Two Step Plan" has gained an additional 129,053 views on YouTube (which is a massive increase of 13.08% since the midweek's chart!).
Three videos move up into the Top Ten this weekend. Venezuelan/Spanish singer La Cruz and Puerto Rican rapper Villano Antillano climb 7 notches to #8 with "Privado". American rapper/singer Lil Peep (from Long Beach, New York) rises 3 spots to #9 with "Latitude". They're joined in the Top Ten by Ukrainian musicians Artem Pivovarov and Max Barskih, who are leaping ahead 11 places to #10 with "Tak Nikhto Ne Kokhav".
Seven songs fall off the chart to make way for seven new songs. The weekend chart features 7 debuts by LGBTQ artists from the U.S.A. and Italy:
- Billie Eilish (from California, USA)
- Osvaldo Supino (from Italy)
- Zolita (from New York, USA)
- Lauren Sanderson (from Indiana, USA)
- Katie Gavin (from Illinois, USA)
- Baby Alpaca (from Colorado, USA)
- Giuseppe (from New York, USA)
