Hopefully coming for a 10th week at #1 too  

 

Bruno is getting more streams then literally any song on this list. Even double than most.

 

I hate Radio.

The way this forum loves metrics when it benefits their fave and hates the metric when it doesn’t  

 

ALL of your faves have benefitted from radio at some point for chart positions you brag about

9 weeks at #1  What an absolute smash

Not people still listening to EOM. 

100 million on radio, biggest radio smash since BL  i remember reading some forbes article talking about how this wont serve longevity cause even its airplay wasn't as record-breaking as its debut showed. Fast forward three months, i think she's doing just fine.

 

She's recovered a bit in streaming and still has enough of a lead on pop airplay (and overall) to warrant a 10th week at #1 too simply legendary.

Thought Gayle would be around 7.. Also, Stay still #2

The fact that EOM has a shot at surpassing Hello as a #1

 

And people called this a frontloaded underperformance  

 

Tbh I have played it longer than I did hello because it’s less gimmicky.

 

So I understand the appeal for this passive classic.

I literally haven't listened to EOM since the week it came out. Like are the ppl who are still streaming it not tired yet?  also wtf is We Don't Talk About Bruno, I thought it was something about Bruno Mars when I saw an earlier thread title 

Need To Know 

Billboard should drop radio’s percent. Bruno is literally the most popular song and everyone knows it.

So WDTAB wasn't even a threat  

 

Stay needs to die already, it's overstayed its welcome.

 

EOM getting another week atop, if it wasn't for Xmas, it would've had passed Hello already

I mean its looking likely that it gets more weeks at #1, but its also looking very likely that it wont get close to the same certification (if they ever update Hello, but also the current 7x platinum will probably take a few years)

i agree. Hello is still a 8/10 even on a poor day ofc, but EOM has much more replay value due to it being less loud/big. So ppl are right when they say its not as world-dominating as Hello was, but that was the point of the song according to Adele herself in a way. She failed at that clearly, but the attempt was there.

It’s convenient to “hate” a component when your fave isn’t the one benefitting from it. Question - were Swifties hating on radio as much during 1989 and Reputation? 
 

Because there’s no reason why suddenly Radio is a bad thing when it’s always been a major component. 
 

And the transparency of Swifties magically caring about this Disney OST not being #1 because of radio. Doesn’t it get tired at some point?
