Twostepcub's music chart for February 22, 2025...


Saturday's here, and it's time to run down my top "hit" tunes from the previous week. Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars are still at #1 for a twentieth week, while Gracie Abrams (pictured above) leaps into the top ten. Songs from SZA, Kendrick Lamar (with SZA), and Sub Focus make some of the biggest jumps (moves of 10+ places highlighted in red), while former big hits from Charli XCX, OneRepublic, Papa Roach, Jack White, Dan + Shay, Pop Evil, and Nathaniel Rateliff and the Night Sweats drop off the chart. And under the list everything is Spotify playlisted for 5 1/2 hours of the biggest in pop, rock, R&B, country, and dance music. We're basically spiralling at this point...
