Right now that MR is raising on the radio it's #6 on iTunes (and will be #4 in a few hours). Her only problem is her horrible streaming numbers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also it won't be #4 cos Zedd's new song is coming. You're damn right about the horrible streaming though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're damn right about the horrible streaming though The thing is that the #1 spot that it hit (twice I think) was never a stable thing,it only happened because of big performances and lasted for a few days (carpool,superbowl). Now it's stable in a higher spot than it's EVER been before,especially without getting any promo. Obviously the discount is helping with that but I wouldn't blame it on that.There are many songs that have been discounted and still flopped.. Yeah I just saw that Zedd's song is selling almost the same as MR but MR gets many positive updates too so I am not sure if Zedd will pass her. Yeah the streaming is just sad Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's probably this high now because of all that previous exposure plus new found radio audience. So if this is where it's sustained now it would've been good to have those performance boosts to be at #1 longer and thus secure a better peak - I think that's what @Sexxx is saying. And he's right, although MR is now doing better than we probably could've hoped for realistically. I wouldn't blame it on the discount entirely, people obviously like the song - we can see that from the reaction whenever it is performed. It's legitimately a hit record and it only needed to be forced on people with so many promo slots because radio wouldn't play it, but I guess they finally woke up. But at this point I still think we'd see a significant drop if the discount was removed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. The chart goes back 7 days thats why most lead singles get a big drop on the 8th day.

Wed get a high peak But this is also why basing the success off of how high a song peaks on charts can be misleading The peak Rank is based on combined success of radio, sales and streaming in a single week relative to other singles It does not tell you the total success of a single. I tell ppl this over and Over Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
