GoodGuyGoneGhetto Posted April 23, 2022 Posted April 23, 2022 Absolutely f*cking ridiculous. The fact that, aside from Dua Lipa, the only other female songs from the 2010’s to make the top 40 of the list are “We Found Love” and “Rolling In The Deep”. If we scan back to just the 2000’s, then it’s “We Belong Together”. Streaming has most definitely skewed the charts since the majority that seem to be entering the top 20 are from post-2017 when streaming truly soared.

People want to deflect from that and make it about stan wars

More Than A Melody Posted April 23, 2022 Posted April 23, 2022 Congrats to The Kid LAROI on his huge, tik tok driven hit

Blinding Lights - Nov 2019 Uptown Funk - Nov 2014 Party Rock Anthem - Jan 2011 Shape Of You - Jan 2017 And Stay and Levitating are from the last 2 years just like Blinding Lights? Streaming has made it easier, whether you like it or no.

TrieLz Posted April 24, 2022 Posted April 24, 2022 And I remember many Livies on Atrl say GOOD 4 U is the bigger song than STAY, not even close the fact that STAY is bigger than Despacito: 16 weeks #1 hit

Green Posted April 27, 2022 Author Posted April 27, 2022 This week Stay passed Shape Of You, Macarena, I Gotta Feeling and Party Rock Anthem. It jumps from #11 to #7
spree Posted April 27, 2022 Posted April 27, 2022 it'll eventually be #3 it looks like. Anything higher than that will depend on it falling out of the Top 25 on BB, but #3 looks to be on lock.
naval23 Posted April 27, 2022 Posted April 27, 2022 They need to re-vamp their formula It was harder spending 20 weeks in the top 5 in 2000s then 30 weeks in the top 5 in 2020s
Ms. Togekiss Posted April 27, 2022 Posted April 27, 2022 Closer and Shape of You felt WAY bigger, not to mention the ones from the early 2010s like Rolling in the Deep and Party Rock Anthem and even I Gotta Feeling. They all felt way bigger than all of the newer hits like Stay and Levitating. Blinding Lights was the only one that felt ubiquitous

People want to deflect from that and make it about stan wars because the fave of those who quoted you only does well on streaming hence why and the other user is straight up delusional so i dont live in the us so i cant speak for the people there but theres no way this is bigger than shape of you, party rock anthem etc etc...
Superbitch Posted April 27, 2022 Posted April 27, 2022 This is ******* ridiculous lmao. It’s been massive but
Temporal Posted April 27, 2022 Posted April 27, 2022 On 4/23/2022 at 2:03 PM, wehavetostan said: Billboard needs to recalibrate the points for songs from 2017 to now because it's so silly. If they continue with the point system they have own, half of the top 10 will be songs released within the past 5 years. Stay is not one of the biggest songs of all time yet, and we shouldn’t have to pretend like it is Bloop
shelven Posted April 27, 2022 Posted April 27, 2022 I can’t believe people are looking at a list that’s supposed to represent 60+ years of hits but has 3 songs in the Top 15 that are less than 3 years old, and all they can do in response is accuse the people who are pointing out its absurdity of being pressed stans This forum has really fried the brains of a lot of people
1989 Posted April 28, 2022 Posted April 28, 2022 Stay just doesn’t feel like the smash its numbers reflect, honestly. Take Blinding Lights for instance, it feels like the biggest pop song in ages. Stay just doesn’t feel like it’s in the same league.
spree Posted April 28, 2022 Posted April 28, 2022 Stay feels big, it's just that people are pressed that it's a Bieber song and that it ended up being bigger than Good 4 U.

Once a song stops charting on H100 it will not gain points any further. So it does not really matter if it's from 1980s or 2020s or whatever decade it is.
