Final predictions (1/27): Ariana #1, leading by 17pts

if she fails to debut at #1 after nearly discounted versions of the song in its first week, it's going to be so damn embarrassing... the fact that it's still not a secured #1 with all those version is already embarrassing:ahh:

Billboard is probably not accounting for the physicals as it was shipped on Thursday... so that will give her an edge over Jack

Presumably Billboard should know that needs to be accounted for though, right?

Yes, but they wouldn't know exactly how many copies it will be added. I think their estimation is based on airplay/streaming/digital only (until the final tally is complete). Ari's physical will probably be 20-30K (as all formats were sold out in her store)

I hope she pulls through (even if I still don’t like the song), but it’s not looking good. :biblio:

The #1 is definitely not happening, hoping we get 10 weeks in the top 10 at least :duca:

idk what the ratio is between airplay and sales. Jack has a diff of 50M radio audience, but Ari has around 60K sales difference.

Also Ariana is likely to be #1 on streaming as well (the video views will boast her). So I think the #1 will be hers.

I'm not even sure 10 weeks in the Hot 100 is a given. I highly doubt it's going to even spend week 3 in the Top 10.

Physicals? For a single? In 2024? You’re shitting me. Billboard needs to get with the times and remove that **** from its charts

I’m not exactly sure but I think it’s 

60M radio audience = 100 points

1k sales = 1 point 

12.5M paid streams = 100 points

video/free streams is where I’m not sure, I think it’s like 10 points = 3.5M 

 

so Ariana has like 200 points from streaming, 50 from sales, and like 20 from radio 

Jack has around the same streaming (maybe a little less like 175), 8-10 points from sales but like 100 points from radio

That’s a stretch lol, even if it bombs horribly on the 3rd week she’ll have like 35M radio (60 points), 4-5k sales (4-5 points), and 10M paid streams (80 points), so like 145 points, enough to be #7, and this is being extremely negative

How many times must you stream a song to contribute as many points as one “physical” purchase?

A few months ago it was, more or less:

 

1,000 sales = 1 point

125,000 streams = 1 point

 

So by buying a song you add the same points (0,001) as if you stream it 125 times.

 

Now the formula has changed slightly, so I don't know the exact current proportion.

Hi there! In the 3 short months I’ve been on this forum, I can’t help but notice  your never being, unrelenting, almost broken record-like behavior of voicing your for streaming supremacy and for billboard to doing away with sells or radio. 
 

In fact, you have inspired me so much that i have decided to write an E-mail to billboard on your behalf. 
 

let’s sit back and wait for what billboard has to say tomorrow!

Screaming. Oh well, at least we got a fun chart week and some people got their much needed dose of entertainment.
