It's also the most streamed song in the USA this week. Based on 2023 Luminate data, Digital Sales represented 1.3% of the songs market. So to have 21.3% (percentage of the total of consumption points, aka excluding radio) is kinda exposing how out of touch with the GP and the real world this is 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoM is in the Top 3 of all metrics this week (it’s still strong everywhere, not just radio), and has a more legitimate claim to #1 than the week CS ‘beat out’ LoM. LoM losing out on both races is proof that the Hot 100 formula needs some tweaking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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!
