Early Predictions: Mariah #1, Brenda #2 (close race, only 6 points of difference)

[Green]

 

 

 

 

---------------------

 

I hope she can finally get it, but I'm not too confident.

[fridayteenage]

yeah feels like they always say that

[Ger]

I'm not getting my hopes up, one thing I've learned about this life, Mariah always wins.

I think it might really be happening this week

 

And there shouldnt crazy much variance as Christmas arent going to do much the rest of the week

[alejandreaux]

i just wanna know if SZA will have a chance at hitting #1 when the Christmas songs fall 

[OnlyManInTheWorld]

Is Brenda really happening?

Probably not. Taylor will have a big increase on radio after they drop Christmas music.

[schnetzka]

I said it before and I will say it again, Mariah has already earned the top spot time and time again with this song. It is way past time for Brenda to get her well-earned spot at #1.

[By the Water]

Hopefully she gets it this week so we don't have to hear the same debate every year about how she deserves the #1

[Richmond]

Brenda needs to get it, it's ridiculous.

[My Tears Ricochet]

Meh, that annoying song by the Christmas fad will block it again

of course she’ll have a chance. that’s not even up for debate

[JoshSpears1805]

I hope she gets it

[JoshSpears1805]

I love mariah but she has enough weeks at number 1 this will also break records with longest climb to number 1

[HeavyMetalAura]

I feel like I’ve heard Brenda on the radio so much more than Mariah (I listen to the radio during the Christmas season) so I’m hoping she’ll pull through! 

[naval23]

i'm shook that Brenda's has more streams on Spotify 

 

radio definitely needs to be underweighted on the Hot 100 - it's always been a problem 

[killer_rose]

Honestly let Brenda have it this time so all of you annoying Brenda "stans", obsessed mariah carey haters, can brag about it for a week and then shut up. 

[Blue Monday]

Is Spotify really enough to make up the difference? Feel like Mariah is up ahead on all of the other platforms; Brenda isn't even ahead of Ariana on Apple Music for example

[pride4jc1222]

They really need to move up the Hot 100 reveal date. I think it's stupid that there are early predictions for this week when the reveal for the previous one hasn't happened yet.

[slw84]

In a perfect world, Brenda will get it this week and in future years Mariah will get it for a few weeks and Brenda will get it for the tracking week for xmas.

I think the amount of days for this tracking week will work in her advantage...not sure it's enough for #1 but would support it

Some of them r not Mariah haters they just want Brenda to get a well deserved #1 for a 50-60 year old song

[SleepingTigers]

I just don’t see it sadly. I feel like Brenda lee would have to pass away around Christmas time to get the number 1 at this point. 

[QueenofCopyPaste]

Every time they say "challenging" always ends up true

Ms. Brenda is coming for Mimi's weave
