THANK U 4 TAKING ME 2 THE DISCO | MEG MYERS

@pop3blow2 (9) @Phonetics Girl (8) @Music Is Death (6) @berserkboi (5) @Slice of Life (5) @Crisp X (4) @vague (3) @BubblegumBoy (2)

Meg Myers followed up her 2018 album Take Me To The Disco by releasing two EPs called Thank U 4 Taking Me 2 The Disco and I'd Like To Go Home Now (released as separate digital EPs and as a combined physical album called Thank U 4 Taking Me 2 The Disco, I'd Like 2 Go Home Now). We love a storyline.

SIN MIEDO (DEL AMOR Y OTROS DEMONIOS) ∞ | KALI UCHIS

@tea (10) @eccentricsimply (9) @soratami (7) @Oleander (7) @Trouble in Paradise (6) @happiestgirl (5) @Crisp X (2) @Rogue (2) @Robsolete (1)

Not me and my Geri Halliwell Spanish thinking this was called Without Honey (which would be Sin Mielo). The title actually translates to Without Fear (of Love and Other Demons), with an infinity symbol chucked on the end for no apparent reason.

Former PJSC winner Bree Runway returns with an EP that features Missy Elliott, some highly impractical fake nails, and a vibe that Misha B wishes she'd been able to translate into an album years ago.

WHAT THE FUTURE HOLDS | STEPS

@Eric (10) @Robsolete (10) @IDontKnowHer (9) @sfmartin (9) @londonrain (8) @saviodxl (5) @Rogue (3) @OspreyQueen (3)

@Robsolete, have you shredded @2014's stan card yet? Because I think you've been given more than enough reasons to do so now.

(I do enjoy Steps' hustle in creating "Night Out" and "Night In" digital editions of this album to sell on their website that are basically the same album with different bonus tracks that aren't available on streaming. The 2020 version of releasing the same album with different covers.)

SONGS FROM THE KITCHEN DISCO | SOPHIE ELLIS-BEXTOR

@Sprockrooster (10) @Eric (8) @IDontKnowHer (7) @berserkboi (6) @Aester (6) @londonrain (6) @Untouchable Ace (5) @Robsolete (4) @BubblegumBoy (3) @soratami (2) @Music Is Death (2)

Given that Sophie Ellis-Bextor's music is a huge part of why Popjustice exists in the first place, it's kind of disappointing that her greatest-hits album (which derives its name from the "kitchen disco" shows she put on over lockdown) missed the top ten by eight points.

That album cover, though... pick one ugly background and stick to it, sis.

For a greatest-hits album, though, the rollout was exhausting. Remember the interminable wait for a tracklisting and cover and the repeated release date pushbacks? By the time it came out I was just relieved that it was finally out... so I could hear the exact same versions of songs that I already knew and loved, with a smattering of new tracks.

 

His ghost?

 

But I would like @berserkboi to help me with data entry for the next charts (if he has time), so I’ll keep letting it slide.

 

Is this so he learns what it’s like to compile charts based on people submitting wildly differing variations of the same album names?
