LGBTQ Music Chart – Week 36 – 2026
Your weekly dose of queer brilliance is here — louder, prouder and more electrifying than ever. This week’s chart is a community-curated celebration of LGBTQ artistry from around the world: a sonic rainbow of empowerment, love and fierce creativity that ranges from tender ballads to full-throttle pop anthems. The Top 50 Countdown is live and it’s the soundtrack your weekend needs.
Number One this week
Melanie Wehbe — «Alive»
Melanie Wehbe dominates this week’s charts with «Alive», the official Stockholm Pride anthem! The pop star’s soaring track celebrates courage, community and living life to the fullest, perfectly capturing the festival’s LGBTQ+ spirit. With writing credits since age 14, Melanie has used music to explore her identity from debut EP «Bloom» to today’s empowering «Alive». Stockholm Pride handpicks an official song annually to spotlight artists embodying its values, making this milestone deeply personal for the chart-topper. As she takes the stage, «Alive» marks a powerful moment in Melanie’s story, proving why she’s this week’s number one pick!
This Week’s Highlight
Jnthn — «HBP»
This week’s featured artist wears their heart (and pulse) on their sleeve and we love it. With its irresistible hook and unapologetic honesty, this track turns late-night overthinking into pure pop gold. It’s the kind of song that finds you at 2 AM, feels like it was written about your life, and refuses to leave your head.
This Newcomer of the week
Bazz & Bearly Disco — «Mademoiselle»
Bazz & Bearly Disco are this week’s Newcomers of the Week with their brand-new single «Mademoiselle». UK singer-songwriter Bazz teams up with London producer Bearly Disco for «Mademoiselle», a deeply personal pop anthem about growing up gay in the 90s. This autobiographical dance-pop banger captures the rollercoaster of teenage confusion, self-doubt, and that life-changing moment when the right person finally walks in. Raw, real, and ridiculously relatable, the track has landed straight on the «Outed on Friday!» playlist. Stream «Mademoiselle» now on Spotify, Apple Music, and all major streaming platforms!
Song of the Week
Tomek Zdyb — «Don’t Look ‘Em In The Eyes»
Tomek Zdyb takes this week’s Song of the Week spotlight with his powerful new single «Don’t Look ‘Em In The Eyes», a Medusa-inspired electropop track laced with flashes of rap that blends personal storytelling with mythology. The song reimagines the legendary Gorgon as a modern metaphor for beauty, fear, and the power we hand to those who hurt us, drawn from a real-life moment when Zdyb received an unexpected apology from a former bully he once found attractive. With its genre-blurring sound and raw emotional core, «Don’t Look ‘Em In The Eyes» cements Tomek Zdyb as one of pop music’s most compelling emerging artists, delivering a striking exploration of pain, desire, and the demons we forgive when they’re beautiful.
