It's absolutely overwhelming considering it's been more than a week since the historic resurgence, and the song is almost 40 years old.

in terms of the chances of #1 which was the discussion

No, she isn't projected to be #1 in the US

 

It's in the UK where she's fighting with Harry for the #1.

I saw a #1 projection in RUTH thread, but it wasn't a regular predictor, so i'm not sure

I think she can go #1 US next week or top 3 at the least. Radio is just starting but she's still dominating digital and streaming. Being #8 this week will encourage more radio play too.

 

US

#1 iTunes, Spotify, Shazam

#2 Apple Music, Deezer

#3 YouTube

In a normal world, this should be enough for #1 but of course radio is hindering its performance.

 BTS's song is a Korean ballad, so it won't have much longevity.

The news about them releasing a new studio album weren't real?

They are releasing an anthology album this friday.

I honestly think RUTH's ceiling is #3 for next week, I keep saying it will end up at #4. It's overperforming for sure. Stability is beyond shocking. I mean, the fact, it got #2 on AM last night for the first time, great lead on iTunes, pulling 500k+ more than AIW on Spotify. Incredible.

Stupid radio is ruining it. Should be number 1

It's really unfair that the most consumed song in both UK and US is being artificially blocked from the #1 spot. Ridiculous chart rules.

I don't know either. Even the album bomb #1s have generally gone to the song getting official radio promotion. Maybe RUTH can get some airplay attention with all its sales & streams this week though. I hope so. It probably can reach #1 Rock & Alternative for 1 wk over Heat Waves at least. ☺️

Tate new peak for she's all i wanna be

I don't think you can really criticize radio in this case. It's a 40 year old song and it's been like 10 days. Did you expect stations to just immediately put it at #1 on their rotations?

It shouldn’t be part of the charts imo

I agree. Like songs at least 20 years old should retire. They can have another retired songs chart for these old tracks.

No. I’m on about radio 

[brianc33710]

Based on its overall Digital Songs Kenny Loggins Danger Zone should be #2 on Rock Digital Songs but its not shown at all there. This is strange as DZ is definitely Rock with plenty of Classic Rock airplay in the US. 

 

EDIT: Gary says Danger Zone is borderline but deemed Pop. I'll defer to him & BB.

Final Predictions:

 

1. As It Was 316

2. First Class 276

3. Running Up That Hill (A Deal With God) 269

4. WAIT FOR U 255

5. About Damn Time 204
