The number 1 single will be As It Was

the Number 1 Album will be Midnights

the Number 1 Artist will be Taylor Swift.

 

These are my predictions.

Hmm with only a few months? Surely 30 or Harry’s House or Un Verano Sin Ti will take it

The have two charts for albums now. So I think Midnights will def take the pure sales list.

30 was already #1 in the 2021 chart

 

Midnights will be #1 for 2022

Hopefully Taylor takes the album and the artist chart. AIW has the song one on lock.

It will take the SPS chart too for sure

 

Harry will be #2

 

Not sure about Bad Bunny because most of his points are from streams and IFPI gives more weight to pure sales. That's why he never has made the IFPI top 10 artists.

Luminate's Top Global Songs Of 2022 based on audio streaming:

 

1 Harry Styles "As It Was" 2.312 billion

2 Glass Animals "Heat Waves" 1.871 billion

3 The Kid LAROI & Justin Bieber "Stay" 1.520 billion

4 Bad Bunny & Chencho Corleone "Me Porto Bonito" 1.476 billion

5 Bad Bunny "Titi Me Pregunto" 1.360 billion

6 Imagine Dragons X JID "Enemy" 1.341 billion

7 Elton John & Dua Lipa "Cold Heart" 1.337 billion

8 The Weeknd "Save Your Tears" 1.282 billion

9 Gayle "abcdefu" 1.245 billion

10 Ed Sheeran "Shivers" 1.232 billion

 

Expect some difference in positions with video streaming & downloads incorporated. Although they also said that Coldplay's "Hymn For The Weekend" was the most streamed song of the year globally overall :rip: (with audio & user generated content video streams included).

 

As mentioned above, Midnights will be #1 on the overall album chart as it did more than 6 million album equivalents in 2022 according to Universal: https://www.musicweek.com/labels/read/taylor-swift-achieves-more-than-6-million-global-units-for-midnights-and-37-billion-total-streams-in-2022/087168

 

Taylor will be #1 on the artists chart as she did 22.4M album equivalent units overall & 36.6 billion streams in 2022 according to Universal (and I doubt BTS or Bad Bunny will be above her in that regard).

I swear if "Save Your Tears" still makes the top 10 after topping last year's list :jonny5:

Justice for "Dawn FM", though.

It had ~4.5M global shipments in 2022, which is about as much as '30' had in 2021 and that was #1.

 

Also depending on how their label report the streams, a lot of BTS' catalog streams could count for it too.

On Spotify for example it's constantly charting in the top 10 on their albums chart, despite being a compilation album.

If 30 was the number 1 of 2021, Midnights will definitely be the number 1 of 2022.  Didn’t it sell about 3m units in its first week worldwide?

Expect to see a good amount of K-Pop acts in the overall top 20 artists list due to strong album sales:

 

BTS may be taking a break but it’s still HYBE’s sales leader in album-loving Korea. Four HYBE artists were in the top 10 of Korea’s year-end album tally: BTS was No. 1 with 5.75 million units, Seventeen was No. 3 with 5.56 million units, Tomorrow X Together was No. 5 with 2.78 million units and ENHYPEN was No. 8 with 2.64 million units. Le Sserafim was the No. 15 artist with 1.29 million units.

Yes, according to Korea's 2022 year-end Circle Chart, 4 different K-Pop acts had album shipments of over 4M, and this number doesn't include additional sales from Japan and the US etc.

I expect 3-4 of the acts in the top 10 to be K-pop acts, because of how much pure sales seem to weigh on IFPI's chart.

oh well :noparty: 

 

When Bad Bunny charts lower than all those random k-pop acts just because his pure sales are almost 0  :dies:

Chinese figures are added so I think Taylor will be #1. Unless BTS' pure sales units outweigh Taylor's overall consumption.

BTS is also massive in China iirc, so this can also be in favor of them.
