Good thing with Shallow is it already established 20+ weeks inside top30 It's a weak no.1 if you'll only consider its top10 stay but it'll be a good no.1 after its full run considering 30weeks on the H100 is already on-lock... For Sucker, now that i don't know.. maybe it could pull a Pillowtalk which stayed at top10 for 14weeks?? That'll still be a great run for a no.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brianc33710 Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 Juice World earned 165k units, but only 43k in actual sales. He received 120k from streaming/176.44 M ODS. I guess he only sold 20k in downloads, because he only got credit for 2,000 of his consumption from those. Also, do you think he debuted with a bunch of songs in the Top 50? If so, some of those lower-ranking SRC candidates could have fallen below #50. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianc33710 Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 4 hours ago, GoodGuyGoneGhetto said: The Hot 100 is so INCREDIBLY weak that the current #1 isn't number-one in any major components, and songs of which peaked months ago are climbing back to the pole position. And, each #1 on each of the component charts are weak. We may have more and more Hot 100 longevity record set in the coming weeks and months, maybe even a 17-18 week #1, but obviously none of them are huge songs. Case in point, the longest running #1 on the now defunct Hot Singles Sales Chart, with 25 weeks, happened when the top songs failed to even sell 10k copies, and sometimes not even 1k. Compare that to CITW 97, which "only" spent 14 weeks on top of Hot Singles Sales, but sold around 8 M copies during those weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThirdWardBey Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 If Adele, Taylor, Rihanna, or even Beyoncé released rn they’d easily debut at #1 and stay there for weeks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshmello and Bastille's "Happier" topped the Airplay chart with 99.2M audience impressions in November. But I'm making some more research. And yes, "High Hopes" peaked just a little above 130M and "Girls Like You" a little under 130M. Both had an insane (and historic imo) longevity.

Jacob.23 Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 I think Billie has a chance for multiple top 10’s release week. Who knows, maybe one of the album tracks will be strong enough for #1. She has exploded in popularity lately Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoodGuyGoneGhetto Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 @Ger-55 @brianc33710 The airplay number one song with the lowest listener impressions of the 21st century thus far is Aaliyah's "Try Again" which peaked at 92M AI circa. June 17, 2000. That same week it became the first airplay-only song to top the Hot 100 without a physical/retail release. If this week's Hot 100 is to go by then I believe that, much sooner rather than later, we will see an airplay number one song peak with ~95M listener impressions via. Billboard/BDS and ~120M listener impressions via. Mediabase. We haven't had a song hit over 160M listener impressions via. Billboard/BDS for almost two years now. Ed Sheeran's "Shape Of You" peaking atop airplay with 180M listener impressions via. Billboard/BDS and 250M via. Mediabase seems so distant.

Wow, thanks for all this info, I was actually making some research. I only found "Happier" lower than 100M impressions since 2014. But yeah, Airplay numbers have been very low lately.
