#1 Nicole Norton / "You Never Fail”
Happy New Year & Congratulations to Nicole Norton/”You Never Fail” for claiming the first #1 song for 2025 on God’s Music Today! A powerful song, beautifully delivered by Nicole Norton, “You Never Fail” also swept the “Top Takes” this cycle: “Top Total Votes”, “Top International Votes”, “Top Domestic Votes, USA” & “Top Commented” – According to the many comments, Nicole shined on this song vocally & folks were also all about the strong encouraging message. Nina Bessinger of Kissimmee FL USA wrote: “Nicole Norton hit a home run with this song, absolutely love it!” – Rick Malone of Manchester, England said: “encouraging message & exceptional vocals” – Sandra Polanchek of Greenfield WI USA shared: “what a powerful song, and very well done” – Jordan McAllister of Lakewood, CO USA added: thanks for playing this song, it really touched me – love your station” – GMT: Thanks Jordan, this song moved us as well. We appreciate you listening, voting & commenting! – Anna Pelletier of Montreal Canada commented: “this song is why I listen to Christian music, so uplifting to my heart” – GMT: “You Never Fail” is Nicole Norton’s second #1 song on God’s Music Today! The last time she was at # 1 on our Top 40 was back on August 1st of 2024 with her hit “Don’t You Dare Give Up” where the song held 2 Weeks @ #1 & spent 20 weeks on our Top 40. We see indications that “You Never Fail” could surpass expectations. Looking forward to what Nicole has planned for 2025, in the meantime, Nicole has kicked the New Year off with a big bang!

God's Music Today! TOP 40 CHART
God's Music Today! TOP 40 CHART
NOTE: We here at "God's Music Today!" don't really like Charts. We believe that each song is important in that "if it touches one soul, it's the best song ever!". Every musical creation that has been created to uplift, praise and promote the name of the Lord Jesus Christ is a winner to us. With that said, we rank our current list by the "most requested songs" compiled through emails & texts from all over the world. So it's important when reviewing the Artists & Songs listed, that you consider all different cultures, the different styles of preferred music, and most importantly the message it brings - No, it's not technical, simply, it is what our listeners like.
What Happened To That Song??? - It’s a question that we’ve been getting lately. Simply, the Chart positions are all listener controlled - with that said, the most common reason for a song to fall down or off the chart is that the Artist has multiple releases, and they end up competing with their own songs. Listeners find it difficult deciding which one is their favorite(s) - Listeners can vote for multiple songs by the same artist, but rarely do. We too hate seeing a great song drop or disappear simply because of multiple choices by the same Artist released too closely together - We hope this answers the question.
Mark 16:15 - He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation".
