Most recent data for Goddess Swift's song:

#1 sales

#3 on-demand

#4 video

#9 pandora

#11 airplay

WHEW, what kind of consumer-fueled smash?

 

Otoh, queens of radio-fueled T10s since 2013 (couldn't get to a single digit peak in sales or streaming):

Scars to Your Beautiful: #25 streaming, #17 sales

Send My Love: #19 streaming, #10 sales = #8

Here: #11 streaming, #11 sales = #5

Don't #29 streaming, #11 sales = #9

Clarity #21 streaming, #12 sales = #8

Try #43 streaming, #10 sales = #9

Photograph: #24 streaming, #12 sales = #10 for one week

Somebody: #13 streaming, #13 sales = #10

Ain't it Fun #39 streaming, #13 sales = #10 for one week

Love Somebody ? streaming, #11 sales = #10

Sweet Nothing #10 streaming, #12 sales = #10 for one week

Hmm, Scars so far is the first to not have at least one of the consumer components at #13 or higher.

Here is the only one that got higher than #8, snagging T5.

Gaga coming back at #97. I hope the SB gives the song some extra weeks. I'm not really sure if it could get a new peak, but I keep my hopes up. :doc:

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.

With this statement I can argue that radio is a chart by itself. Since the music they keep on playing are the most popular ones that they get from the... you guessed it, Hot 100. It's it's basically a non-stop cycle of songs getting higher positions on Billboard thanks to radio which looks for the highest songs and plays them thus adding even more points to the songs and that's never ending. When new songs arrive then they gotta make space for them so that's the reason some songs keep on decreasing, they choose the ones that are getting down on billboard so it's the same chain over again. Songs by high profile artists are played non-stop at the beginning cuz radio wants "more people" but since their crazy airplay already helped the songs to debut high they will not let them and that's it. That's the reason some songs are getting high airplay even though sales and streaming are low, cuz radio sees they're popular on the charts, but the only reason they are high is because of themselves. This is what we got from our marketing research back in college with some radio stations. So yeah, that's true and here in Tijuana, Mexico they also use the Billboard Hot 100 to know what to play. Radio should weight WAY less if they don't want to drop it then.

I'd love to talk with you about how radio chooses to play songs and why that might be flawed in many ways, but that is irrelevant to this discussion.

 

We are talking about how much influence radio should have on the Hot 100. As I said some pages back, I believe that a metric's influence on the Hot 100 should depend on how many people consume music via that metric. After all, the Hot 100 is a popularity chart meant to measure consumption.

 

So in the end, if we're talking about Hot 100 influence, I couldn't care less about how radio decides what to play. What I do care about is how popular radio is. The popularity of radio has not decreased, so I don't believe that there's a good reason to decrease its Hot 100 influence.

That's right– it really is unfortunate. Don't Let Me Down will suffer the same fate.

Looks like DLMD will be the next victim of the 52/25 rule.

 

edit AP :skull:

 

at the rate CSTF! is going, it'll probably suffer the same fate.

It stays on the Hot 100 in its 53rd week if it's top 25 or if it has more points than in its 52nd week.
