luckythisway 2,610 Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Yes but I was using percentages which is what we should be looking at. It doesn't matter if a song sells 400,000 in 1 week when the #1 song is selling 750,000. Exaggerated numbers, but I think you get my point :p true :ohwell: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Americano 31,061 Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 If by BB200 you mean Top Album Sales, then #25-#30. Yay, pretty good 1M WW this coming week or the week after? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevbev 506 Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 is it just me or do the weeks on top of the charts seem more inflated than a couple of years ago? for example: blank space - 7 weeks UF - 6 and counting AATB - 8 weeks Fancy - 7 weeks compared to Poker Face - 1 week Just Dance - 3 weeks last Friday night - 2 weeks roar - 2 weeks Nah, it's been like this for the last few years. It just depends on the song. Remember when "Boom Boom Pow" was number 1 for twelve weeks and then "I Got A Feeling" was number 1 for fourteen weeks back in 2009? lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klou 2,414 Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 The ffs haters are now embracing the masterpiece. If you guys are just up for the bandwagon tho. I'm all for talking about charts, but I still think the song is dreadful I really don't care if it becomes a huge hit as long as she leaves some room for Ellie Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd argue it's been building up to this for the past few years, however. I think this trend is partially due to streaming and exposure via social media, as number 1 songs almost gain a monopoly over the territory, due to these factors. I hope that makes sense lol. I'd love to hear what industry professionals think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klou 2,414 Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 The Hot 100 was dominated by radio back then. That's why songs would last that long until they changed the formula. Digital sales then took over and we saw songs top the charts for a short period of time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

craig 680 Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Bye Madonna, LFL about to leave the top 100. http://kworb.net/pop/ Annie Lennox's song did better post-Grammies. Uptown Funk showing a catchy song + radio is stronger than Grammies promo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
