It's a very high quality song so I can see why

It's a good song but they avoiding rules, it shouldn't be charting.

avoiding the 20/50 and the 52/25 concurrency rules afaik.

20/50 rule: a song would be removed from the chart if it spent at least 20 weeks on the chart and fell below position number 50.

Wildflower should be out of the charts according to this rule, similar for the 52/25 rule, yet, it remains charting.

Actually, my suggestion is for monsters to make TikTok edits of MAYHEM songs using handsome/hot villains from anime shows. I mean, MAYHEM's dark theme is a perfect match for doing thirst edits for hot villains. 

I'm surprised Perfect celebrity hasn't been used as thirst trap TikToks for MPGs and famous men

Imagine a quiet audio of the chorus, then Bam the 'na na na na na perfect celebrity' playing

we just need to get in contact with billie's team, wildflower is still charting 

I really want to know what is the reason behind it. Abracadabra also peaked at #13 and not inside Top 10 and why did it leave the chart after 20 weeks if Wildflower still stays? I've also seen such rare anomalies before with random khia songs. I really want to know.

I think it had a random growth in radio play, so I think billboard were like oh it's rising again so lets keep it in. Dunno why it's still there now though

Yup, this feels extra bad because rules apply to abra but somehow don't apply to other songs. 🤷‍♂️

And this 24 hour update was very similar to the 39 h update, which suggests it's picking up again.

Analysis to Total Chart Points:
 

New figures (Sep 14, 2025)

Candle In The Wind 1997: 21,314,000 (no further growth, song is “closed”)

Blinding Lights: 21,290,000 (same)

Die With A Smile: 19,714,000

Growth of Die With A Smile

Previous total (Sep 7, 2025): 19,541,000
New total (Sep 14, 2025): 19,714,000
→ +173,000 in one week

So the track is still gaining over 150k per week, even after earlier signs of decline.

Gap to close

vs. Blinding Lights:
21,290,000 − 19,714,000 = 1,576,000 points

vs. Candle In The Wind:
21,314,000 − 19,714,000 = 1,600,000 points

Time needed at current pace

At +173k per week:
1,576,000 ÷ 173,000 ≈ 9.1 weeks

Expected crossover: mid-November 2025, when Die With A Smile should surpass both Blinding Lights and Candle In The Wind to become #1 all-time.

👉 Conclusion: Despite slight downward trends, the weekly increase is still strong (+173k).
If this pace continues, Die With A Smile will likely reach #1 on the all-time chart by mid-November 2025.


Conclusion: DWAS will become the highest charting song of all time (if nothing weird happens before that time)

shouldn't blinding lights atleast gets 8-10k+ units a week? it still getting an average of 1.6m daily streams just on spotify

PS. If Bruno releases his lead single for BM4 this October (rumour has it) DWAS hopefully gets a boost

Why has Spotify gotten so lazy lately?
