JBJT2786 Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 My Oh My....i see a stanbase that criticized DSN for being #1 on Pop Radio but is no where to be found on this list compared to their faves song. OT: I'm not surprised by most of these songs ( maybe So Sick but I think that was at its peak which was literally 5 months after the release of the song) but LMAO at Intentions being "#1" despite nearly 20 year songs being on this chart. The Justin payola is just ..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lower Potential score received during the week the song went #1 for the first time, the higher to be ranked (since it has worse callouts). In case of ties for Potential score, I used Net Positive (which tells you an overall reaction of the audience, consists of Postive Reaction minus Negative Reaction). Worse Net Positive total means worse callouts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Closer" kinda changed everything, it got insane callouts which match with its performance being one of the longest running #1 Pop hits in history.
