PopTwo 288 Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 https://www.officialcharts.com/charts/singles-chart-update/ It seems to be a common thing this year on the UK charts that once a song has charted for 10 weeks, it has a sudden drop. Ariana is expected to stay at number 1 with Thank U, Next, Ava Max is expected to climb to number 2 with Sweet But Psycho, Halsey is expected to climb to number 3 with Without Me. 6ix9ine is expected to climb to number 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

dit 45,444 Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 It's that new rule they implemented. After like 10 weeks or something your songs get their points slashed by half i believe Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once a track has been on the chart for at least 10 weeks and has declined for three consecutive weeks its streaming to sales ratio will change from 150:1 to 300:1 in an attempt to accelerate its disappearance from the chart http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?s=f9a1e618c2caa79a7a9419ee95e30bd5&showtopic=202072 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

After like 10 weeks or something your songs get their points slashed by half i believe I thought it looked intentional, it happened to Rita Ora last week and happened to Drake with God's Plan because it fell from #1 to #9 after 9 weeks at number 1 Is it likely to happen earlier to Ariana if the sales continue to be as high as they are? Edit: I get why they use the rule too but I don't understand why it's a sudden change rather than gradually lower the ratio so songs don't slide down the charts.

Bel Esprit 669 Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 That rule is dumb. I hate the way modern charts are so heavily manipulated. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it's such a messy rule honestly. I know it's to create more movement on the charts but it is silly imo. In regards to Ari, if her song keeps decreasing even by a little points then at the 10 week mark it will have it's points slashed in half as well I believe.

So the units are probably more likely to increase because of the music video release? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
