Same formula used by Billboard for their all-time rankings.

 

Power Index - ratio used to measure the strength of #2s based on average points a #2 accumulated. (example: if average #2 has 100K, and a song obtained 113K points then the index for the song would be 1.13)

Iconic song  

Surprised Thinking Out Loud is not Top 20/10. That felt SO massive and is prob a future classic. It got real unlucky peaking at the same time as ****ing Uptown Funk lol
