ImsoLOUD Posted September 2, 2022 Posted September 2, 2022 Whether it happens or not, Kate Bush is having a (renaissance) year. Cloudbusting and Wuthering Heights also deserve more recognition. And I argue they are even better than RUTH.
Bloodflowers. Posted September 2, 2022 Posted September 2, 2022 This legend, I can't It would be amazing if it does go #1
mrmayman Posted September 2, 2022 Posted September 2, 2022 Let me go purchase the CD and a copy on iTunes.

It's an objective fact ! Maybe her team didn't think of pushing the song for awards season. Who knows ? Maybe it wasn't eligible. ? Idk if an old song having a resurgence can compete with current songs. I'm not sure how active her team is or honestly if she even has one. She disappeared from public life many years ago and has occasionally come out for a performance and has been giving some interviews around RUTH, but that's it. The jokes about her being held up in a castle or something in the forest aren't that far-fetched. I think the label has been the one giving it a push, but it sounds like Kate herself is content with it having its moment at all.
Bacardo Royale Posted September 2, 2022 Posted September 2, 2022 Does mariah have the record for longest amount of time before a song hit # 1?

But yeah it kinda occured to me too that she might not even have a team in the way we're used to it for our pop girls. I'm really not familiar with her so I don't know every detail of her career haha. Like you said, she may be content with her song's resurgence even without some accolades to come with it If she manages to snatch the #1, she might break a lot of records which would extend her recent exposure to younger audiences. I wonder if she's going to take advantage of that momentum before the year end ?
Mikeymoonshine Posted September 2, 2022 Posted September 2, 2022 Yeah Kate has always been considered a "recluse" because she's managed to more or less stay out of the press and only occasionally gives interviews when she's promoting something coming up (plus ofc when the show made RUTH smash). She lives in one of those houses on a cliff edge by the sea that's in danger of falling into the sea now apparently. She was actually one of the earliest pop girls but basically decided she didn't want that kind of career. RUTH deserves number one but even if it never gets it I am glad she got this recognition even if it's mostly just centred around one song.
Raptus Posted September 2, 2022 Posted September 2, 2022 She has made like 4 mln dollars in the last 3 months, you think she gives a f*** about some Billboard list in USA?
naval23 Posted September 2, 2022 Posted September 2, 2022 The fact it peaked at #3 and will likely spend 20+ weeks in the top 10 alone is insane Radio was too late to catch up - it still ended up being a top 5 airplay hit but if only it alligned with its sales/streams domination
besaid Posted September 2, 2022 Posted September 2, 2022 Radio is weighed way too heavily on this chart. The fact BMS is already flying off the chart yet this actual hit was blocked by it because of radio deals and radios weird selection of what they play and won't play...Not to mention the incessant playing of the Harry song still eating up a spot in the top 3 for months.
AMIT Posted September 2, 2022 Posted September 2, 2022 WHAT? Y'ALL NEED TO BUY IT ON ITUNES PLEASE!! THIS LEGEND DESERVES
pride4jc1222 Posted September 2, 2022 Posted September 2, 2022 It looks like Harry also released an instrumental of Late Night Talking, to coincide with the physical single being shipped out: https://pulsemusic.proboards.com/thread/214044/billboard-hot-100-09-2022?page=1&scrollTo=8256361 This is starting to get a bit out of hand. Billboard needs to crack down further on this, and possibly think about removing sales from the Hot 100. I can't even imagine how much more insufferable Harry's fanbase will be if they get the 1-2 on the 9/17 chart.

Wait Harry actually has a chance to be #1 with Late Night Talking like he did with Watermelon Sugar? His fanbase will go hard with the sales. LNT's streams are kinda low right now so it could be late though.

Frfr. She was already living good, but these new checks are hitting different, especially since all she had to do was authorize the use of her classic from the comfort of her own home. Love that for her.

killer_rose Posted September 3, 2022 Posted September 3, 2022 Of course radio decided to drop it this week ?. Come on Warner, release the ST remix versions for extra streams.

Yes why not get your coins and your accolades. They're not mutually exclusive. Get it Kate. Show these young hussies how to serve LONGEVITY queen

Y’all stay with your foot on that man’s neck 24/7, 365 and I believe it has a karmic effect. Stop hating so hard, maybe he’ll flop. Until then… Suffer. Edited September 3, 2022 by JCsNumba1Fan
