charts discussion Radio callouts: Beautiful Things #1, Taste debuts nicely

[Ger]

HTE freefalling...

 

EOM's callouts are excellent, but I'm surprised they weren't even higher considering Adele always scores HUGE on callouts. I feel Pop radio is going to drop it fast.

 

STAY being #1 after 11 weeks atop on Pop radio is insane.  

[Jaffery]

Stay will probably stay on the hot 100 for a year and a half

I don’t get how HTE is the favorite song but tanking

Seems like a polarizing song.

 

Half of the people who say they have a positive reaction, also say in particular they LOVE it. That's very rare, commonly you can have a good positive reaction, but not too many of them actually saying they like it A LOT, and it has a significant percent of people disliking it (1st Favoritism vs 5th Most Negative).

Stay is like crack, a perfectly written perfect pop song. The short length works in its favour too, it doesn't overstay its welcome and leaves you wanting more.

Something happened to the site, it isn't even showing previous dates. I hope it's not the end of national callouts being available.

Stay 

[Ger]

Welp, it seems that "traitor" wasn't going to last much anyways, what a shame how GP kinda abandoned her with her best song. Having the most negative reaction, seriously America? 

 

"STAY" is just insane, I- Truly insane how it's almost #1 on callouts despite almost 4 weeks of being the most overplayed song on Pop radio, like.... I switch station when I hear the intro. Although I must admit sometimes I found myself still enjoying it on repeat.  Don't remember the last time a song kept such an excellent score for MONTHS. Quite interesting, how it has the most positive reaction by far, and the Heaviest Burnout at the same time.

 

"Heat Waves" is skyrocketing to the top at this point, massive callouts and great metrics. So cool to see these 2nd/3rd wind songs having a second chance on radio. They seem to have improved in that aspect, I hope.

 

Ugh, at this point NTK is going to get blocked, probably peaking Top 3 but there is a very strong Top 4 right now and HW coming hard. 

 

Not that surprised why radio has been quite slow. The new "hits" are just not clicking. I kinda knew CH was going to test very poorly on Pop radio, but it fits pretty well for HAC, where it's doing awesome.

 

Don't think EOM is going to have that much longevity. 1. It's a ballad and they're probably dropping it fast in January. 2. It hasn't tested so strongly compared to the current top songs.

 

That's what WIYH deserves, song is awful and generic af. Can't wait for it to freefall. I seriously don't understand why Pop radio gives too much platform for these kind of songs when you just know they don't fit well, they're filler but even GP dislikes them.

 

TWIW steadily growing... but IB has truly been a huge surprise.

 

Don't think "Shivers" is going to improve too much, I actually think #5 right now is quite high, but Ed is on fire so yeah... On the other hand, BH is having an impressive sucess, song truly exceeded what everyone thought at the beginning. It has managed to serve longevity.

 

YR almost outlasting NTK, GP truly loves that song, surprisingly.

[Cheers]

STAY & Ghost  King of Pop makes quality!

[OnlyManInTheWorld]

"Easy on Me" doing better than I expected

 

"Stay" - this is just too much. People are obsessed with this song.

 

"Heat Waves" - I still don't remember anything about this song.

"Stay" is just insane at this point. 15 weeks at number one for net positive.

This is a moody and angry song. The GP needs grey skies and bare trees to get into it.
