it's not that close yet. It would be a waste

[B-Luke]

They should weigh down radio already, cause collapsing on radio = collapsing on the H100 is just  give others a chance

But Last Night is also predicted to be #1 on Streaming Songs for an 18th week     and it has been #1 on Streaming Songs for 17 weeks

ToTC/lip has the points lower: 

Cruel Summer could pass Fast Car before FC even passes Last Night. CS looks like it will have the Truth Hurts run.

Thankfully Meltdown intervened (if only for a week; lest radio let none else but Morgan have the upper hand on the main chart again ) ugh I just need LN to step down

Meltdown free falling   

 

That way both Snooze and Flowers will be top 10 

[cityfolk]

never thought i'd be into a Luke Combs song, nevertheless rooting for it to go #1 to stop MAGAn, but here I am streaming 

[pride4jc1222]

Just think, if not for the buying spree of Seven and TTiaST, Last Night would have already passed One Sweet Day and Despacito, and would be setting sight at an 18th week at #1 on the Hot 100.

[Mr. Duff]

Anti-Hero is outlasting Kill Bill  

[umich]

So if Cruel Summer makes it to #1, that would be her 7th consecutive album* since Red to do so (while tying Mariah and Rihanna):

 

Taylor

Red

Isn't Luke Combs MAGA too?

If Fast Car goes #1 it would be the first solo written song by a female (Tracy Chapman) since Alicia Keys (Fallin') in 2001  to reach #1 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Is that because the producers got credited? Not even a Taylor song that she write and produced by herself went number 1?

Billboard’s charts are Saturday dated.

How can i seem pressed just by stating that Cruel Summer won't go #1? LOL 

Just want to say I want Fast Car to get a week at #1. However did you notice Cruel Summer is ahead on iTunes, Spotify, Apple Music, and getting bigger updates on radio still despite peaking on pop radio? All it would take CS is a video on YouTube to take the crown

Yes, but he said to stop "MAGAn", not "MAGuke".
