Administrator Toups Posted November 8, 2022 Administrator Share Posted November 8, 2022 Looks like Disney's "payola" effort to get Lift Me Up to #1 didn't work. LMU got 48.1 million in radio audience, compared to Anti-Hero getting 37.6 million radio airplay audience impressions (up 17%). Usually on radio, songs build up week to week. Also, I wonder if Disney influenced Billboard to start using the new tracking method (that now gives more points to radio) on Monday October 31 (in the middle of the tracking week too!), because the new method was suppose to start in December. Anti-Hero becomes Taylor's first multi-week #1 since Look What You Made Me Do in 2017. Very surprised Midnight Rain did that well in the second week. It doesn't have the "at the beginning of the album" boost, and it didn't get any promotion, and it's not a top favourite among fans, from what I've seen. LOL But it's doing well on streaming. Weird. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members kalbir Posted November 9, 2022 Members Share Posted November 9, 2022 I think Rihanna will get her 15th #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 soon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted November 14, 2022 Members Share Posted November 14, 2022 Taylor stays at No. 1 but Drake album-bombed the Top 10 with eight entries (seven of them with 21 Savage). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted November 14, 2022 Administrator Share Posted November 14, 2022 Drake thought he was going to get another #1 but Taylor decided to block him by releasing 6 remixes. LOL Pure speculation on my part, based on what I know of Taylor, I bet she was a bit pissed off at her record label and Drake for dropping his album so soon after hers. He was suppose to released one week after hers but they delayed to two weeks. I think it was a mistake by Republic Records to release albums from their top 2 artists so close to each other. This is like Disney releasing an Avengers movie and then two weeks later releasing an X-Men movie. From Chart Data: - "Anti-Hero" rises to #1 on the Digital Song Sales chart for the first time with over 327K sold (up 1,793%), the biggest US pure sales week for any track in the 2020s decade. - "Anti-Hero" earns the biggest US pure sales week for any song since her own "Look What You Made Me Do", over 5 years ago. - "Anti-Hero" earns the biggest US sales week for any song this year, with over 550K units sold in its third week. It's the only song to sell over 500,000 in a single week this year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Faulkner Posted December 5, 2022 Members Share Posted December 5, 2022 Mariah is knocking on Taylor’s door. For once, I’d like to see Brenda Lee leapfrog Mariah to No. 1 with “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree.” 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Faulkner Posted December 20, 2022 Members Share Posted December 20, 2022 SZA managed to penetrate the Top 5 with “Kill Bill” during the Christmas song onslaught (with another song in the top 10). Probably would have had her first No. 1 if she’d released it any other time of year: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Faulkner Posted January 9, 2023 Members Share Posted January 9, 2023 The Christmas songs are gone, and Taylor’s back at No. 1 with “Anti-hero,” which at seven weeks ties “Blank Space” as her longest-running Hot 100 chart topper. And, look, Beyoncé’s “Cuff It” has jumped into the top 10: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
