Exactly my point. In Sales and Streaming you can guess who actually bother to search for a song, or click on them, or play a streaming list and don't skip songs. In Airplay you don't even know if someone was actually listening, what if everyone in the world was actually turning off their radio everytime Dark Horse was playing? Yet radio said millions were listening? Radio is NOT a factor to track the hottest songs out there. If they decide to play Million Reasons non-stop they will do it and increase its chart position when actually nobody checks for it.

That's an insane hypothetical. You have to realize that most people like most songs being played on pop radio. You can look at the callout reports and realize that. The industry isn't very transparent, but I'm sure that they are very confident in the research that they perform and that they can estimate with accuracy how many people are listening at any given time. 

 

The bottom line is that 90% of the population listens to radio at least once a week, and Nielsen found that it is the most popular method of discovering new music. Removing it from the formula because audience numbers aren't EXACTLY correct would make the Hot 100 so much less accurate. Dozens of millions of people consume music through radio and to discount all of that consumption is absurd.

Except for Country radio, but we've already talked about that lol.

Is it doing well on Pandora? I haven't checked that chart today, but that could also be working in M5's favor.

32 Weeks -- How Do I Live

31 Weeks -- Uptown Funk

30 Weeks -- Smooth

29 Weeks -- Party Rock Anthem

28 Weeks -- You Were Meant For Me/Foolish Games (double sided physical single)

26 Weeks -- Truly, Madly, Deeply & Closer

 

I think Closer gets 29 weeks. I think after the Grammys are behind us, Paris will pick off Closer's momentum and finally take the role of the duo's leading song.

Agreed. Look at the Maroon 5 and Alessia or whoever songs - where would they be without radio right now? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe this band/artist and many like them only have chart success due to airplay, as they have relatively/very low sales/streaming, indicating people have no desire to listen to by free-will/buy either song.

Where do you think water under the bridge will peak when it's all said and done :dancehall:

I'm not entirely sure if #26 wont be it's peak tbh.

Maybe top 20 if radio pushes it a bit more. Top 10 seems super unlikely.
