I'd say as gays we hold each others hand and support this classic by this amazing, talented, beautiful, show stopping, never the same empowered woman of color and help her reach #1.

Americans y'all better come thru :doc: It's the last you can do after you let a one hit wonder destroy her record like that.

Probably Shape Of You.

 

It has sold 41.5M units so far, according to IFPI

Maybe she will, but I hope Adele or Rihanna doesn't block her.

I love Rihanna a lot but if the bitch really releases 3 years later just when Mariah is getting a number 1 i would... 

 

Btw, they say that Mariah got in total 100m us streams last year on xmas week but when it was split because of BB, it got 60m us/40m us streams in the 2 weeks. This week all that 100m us streams will go to the same week, that why everyone expects it to go #1. Can Rihanna do 100m us streams? Thats extremely huge tbh. Or Adele? She would have itunes on her side so she would be much stronger.

I ****ing hope so. Part of me wants them to not push so hard so it's an organic, solo #1, but this is also the last year she can get a #1 this decade (so she'll have #1's in 3 decades), so **** it, bring on the remixes, discounts, and promo Mimi! :duca:

Rihanna pulled 44 million US streams in four days back in 2016 when Work debuted. It's possible that her streaming power has grown a lot more.

But I don't think anyone is blocking Mariah this time, especially around that period.

As long as she gets Ariana or Adele to remix the song she will have no problem.

 

i hope she can get it in 2019/2020 since no new releases occur the first week of January but I’m sure it’ll plummet like the others.

 

remix for the #1

I really hope so, she deserves it, the song deserves it. It would be epic!

If not this year, it'll be next year or 2021. She has the #1 on lock sooner or later, unless Billboard changes the rules in her disfavor.

nah... if it goes #1 in the xmas week, it will still rank top 15 in the first issue of 2020... (and 5 weeks in the top 10 is still respectable for a 49 year old). Her christmas album will most likely go top 5 this year as well. Merry Christmas is going to surpass #1's 16 million traditional sales global total this season (in sps tho, traditional sales will be at around 14 million).

Considering end of the year seems to be packed (Drake, Adele, Rihanna & more)... She could not get it this year, but I'm pretty sure she eventually will later.

1990 - 14 million - Debut album* (#1)

1993 - 26 million - Music Box* (#3)

1994 - 16 million - Merry Christmas (SPS) (#4)

1995 - 20 million - Daydream* (#5)

1997 - 10 million - Butterfly* (#6)

1998 - 16 million - #1's*

 

*traditional sales.
