1 “Never Flo Lose Milli Me”

FLO MILLI’S “NEVER LOSE ME” vaults 7-1 on the TikTok Billboard Top 50 chart dated Jan. 20. The 2023 song has been involved in a variety of trends on TikTok, such as one in which creators display medals and trophies made to seem correlated to tongue-in-cheek accolades (e.g., having the worst ex) that they describe with captions. Recently, the trends have also included a bevy of uploads highlighting the song’s “never had a bitch like me” lyric.

“Never Lose Me” takes the lead from Lesley Gore’s “Misty,” the jazz standard penned by Erroll Garner in 1954 and recorded by Gore for her 1963 debut album, I’ll Cry If I Want To. “Misty” dips to No. 2 after a week at the top, and continues to appear in a trend on TikTok in which a user is first shown without a feature (glasses or a hairstyle, for example) and then again with it — though the creator generally uploads a photo of a friend or family member with that feature instead.

Meanwhile, Sophie Ellis-Bextor’s “Murder on the Dancefloor” leaps 10-3 on the chart. Its virality continues to stem from Saltburn, the film it’s featured in, although usage of the track on TikTok expands beyond content specific to the movie.

The chart’s top debut, He Is We’s 2010 song “I Wouldn’t Mind,” launches at No. 8 and is one of TikTok’s latest examples of revitalizing a catalog song. A sped-up version, officially released to streaming services on Jan. 11, has boosted the track’s revival, with nearly all uploads centering on its “merrily we fall out of line” lyric.
