FUN FACT: Normani is the first member from Fifth Harmony to make it on the countdown! She had a very brief appearance On Deck

last year with "Waves", but finally appeared on the main chart and even came close to the top 10. This is something you'll likely never

see from everyone else except maybe Lauren.
FORECAST: AOTW will be an easy win for Taylor and she'll inevitably dominate Most Played Songs, but can she beat the Most Played

Artist record that Broods broke earlier this year with 251 plays? As for the #1 spot, it should be another close battle as everyone in

the top 5 still has a strong shot.

 

DESTINATION: TIMELINE - August 23rd #1s:

2014 - Taylor Swift "Shake It Off"
2015 - Hailee Steinfeld "Love Myself"
2016 - OneRepublic "Kids"
2017 - Kesha "Praying" [x5]
2018 - Broods "Peach"

 

 

RETIRED SONG #88:

NINA NESBITT "LOVE LETTER"

 

FALL-OFFS: 22. Miley Cyrus- Mother's Daughter [10wks] [#12] 21. Billie Eilish- bad guy [20wks] [#02] RETIRED! 19. Halsey- Nightmare [11wks] [#08] 16. Aly & AJ- Church [20wks] [#01 (x9)] RETIRED!

POSSIBLE FUTURE DEBUTS + RETURNS: 5 Seconds of Summer "Teeth" [80%] Jonas Brothers "Only Human" [45%] Poppy "Concrete" [25%] WALK THE MOON ft. BRÅVES "Lose You Again" [65%] + Taylor's next single (Cruel Summer? Lover? The Man?)

Same  Wish it was coming sooner but luckily I've had plenty of other releases to lessen my impatience

And now it fell pretty hard  Whoops

Excuse me?  It's so good and deserved to smash way harder than Without Me.

The side charts are always very random  I focus a lot on recently released albums/songs but I also love to go back and listen to things I haven't heard in a while. The Black Parade is definitely their best work  A true masterpiece.

Well get on that  Even though it took a bit to grow on me so I don't know how you'll feel about it.

 

It's been one of my favorites from his album since my first play, but he's coming at a bad time when the top 10 (and especially 7) is ultra competitive.

He really was, but now he got pushed down a bit  I wouldn't say his chances at #1 are over though.

Yep, they left with a massive record that could potentially never get beaten  It was just temporary

Yeah she deserved at least one week there, I don't remember which song blocked ha. At least she'll do great on my Best of 2019 list.

Yeah I started to get over the song  But at least it has had way more success than New, Safe & Insomnia combined

 

Now you know how I feel with your countdown

The Hype debuts 

[TheWayWeWere]

Religion rising again her new album is FLAWLESS  I was afraid about it after first 2 singles, but she did great job  

both Tove singles falling  

Mother's Daughter out of top 25  Slide Away better smash  

[Mr. Loco]

Shake it off #1 a few years ago  It is my most played lastfm song ever

 

LOL at Normani being the first 5H girl to debut... surprising Camila has never made it 

 

How do you sleep already falling without touching #1  You need to calm down still strong tho 

[T.O.A.D.S.]

I hope Never Really Over manages to hang on for a few more weeks

MIKA released new music?!

 

Tove's new songs are cute but not as cute as her two most recent albums

[Diet Pepsi]

Motivation debuting it would be #1 right now if I bothered to update my chart

Mothers Daughter off  where is Slide Away

In My Bed is an eargasam 

[potent]

Silhouettes coming for #1, I didn't expect that

Motivation is a good effort, I like how she's actually putting effort into her product unlike other pop girls, I'm not sure if I like it enough to debut though.

 

 

[Green]

Good debuts of Motivation and The Hype.

Tove Lo x2 still in the top 10 

[Pinkoverblue]

10/25

 

Great debut from Normani. Sam Smith already losing his race at #1

 

Halsey and Miley dropping out though...

[Kevin2803]

Motivation debuting  but missing the top 10

Sabrina Carpenter- In My Bed (-2) [6wks] [#04] 07. Taylor Swift- You Need to Calm... (+1) [11wks] [#01 (x1)] 06. Sam Smith- How Do You Sleep? (-1) [6wks] [#02]   05. Shura- religion (-1) [11wks] [#01 (x2)] 04. MUNA- Number One Fan (-3) [6wks] [#01 (x2)] 03. Red Hearse- Half Love (=) [6wks] [#03] 02. Taylor Swift- Lover (Debut) [1wk] [#02] 01. Friendly Fires- Silhouettes (+1) [3wks] [#01 (x1)]

On Deck: 30. Halsey- Nightmare (-1) <11w/08> 29. Daya- Left Me Yet (-6) <9w/09> 28. Gryffin & Carly- OMG (-5) <3w/14> 27. Katy P- Never Really Over (-6) <12w/04> 26. Jonas Bros- Only Human (=) <2w/15>   Most Played Songs: 10. Red Hearse- Red Hearse [13] 09. Friendly Fires- Silhouettes [14] 08. Taylor Swift- The Archer [15] 07. Taylor Swift- The Man [16] 06. Taylor Swift- I Think He Knows [18] 05. Taylor Swift- Paper Rings [21] 04. Taylor Swift- Cruel Summer [22] 03. Taylor Swift- Daylight [23] 02. Taylor Swift- Soon You'll Get... [25] 01. Taylor Swift- Cornelia Street [34]   Most Played Artists: 05. Lady Gaga [32] 04. Shura [45] 03. Red Hearse [54] 02. Friendly Fires [70] 01. Taylor Swift [341] <51.9% of this week's plays>   Album of the Week: Taylor Swift 'Lover'

 

[[ RECORD BROKEN - Biggest Most Played Artist: Taylor Swift (341; Wk 281) ]]
[[ RECORD EXTENDED - Most M.P.Artist #1s: Taylor Swift (24) ]]
[[ RECORD EXTENDED - Most M.P.Songs #1s: Taylor Swift (18) ]]
[[ RECORD EXTENDED - Most Records Broken: Taylor Swift (13) ]] 

 

  

 

FUN FACT 1: Taylor didn't just break the Most Played Artist record (previously held by Broods), she DEMOLISHED it. All she had

to do was pass 251 scrobbles, but she flew beyond 300 with ease. Taylor did have quite an advantage though, as 'Lover' is

18 tracks long and there were 6 other albums to revisit. The daily playcounts were pretty consistent as well: 61-61-53-55-40-45-40.
FUN FACT 2: "Lover" would've been #1 last week if Republic Records made it the 3rd single a few days earlier, which would've

extended her #1 Debuts record to 8. This time around, Friendly Fires burned her chances and it wasn't even a close battle.

(This wouldn't have happened if they picked other single frontrunners like CS and TM. I personally think Lover should've been saved for Winter.)

 

Most Played Songs (Continued):
13. Shura- BKLYNLDN [10]
12. Friendly Fires- Offline [11]
11. Taylor Swift- ...Ready for It? [12]

 

DESTINATION: TIMELINE - August 30th #1s:

2013 - Lady Gaga "Applause" <1st ever #1!>
2014 - Taylor Swift "Shake It Off" [x2]
2015 - Nick Jonas "Levels"
2016 - Britney Spears "Make Me..."
2017 - Aly & AJ "Take Me"
2018 - Broods "Peach" [x2]

 

 

FALL-OFFS: 25. Foals- Black Bull [3wks] [#24] 24. Daya- Left Me Yet [9wks] [#09] 23. Gryffin & Carly Rae Jepsen- OMG [3wks] [#14] 21. Katy Perry- Never Really Over [12wks] [#04] 17. Nina Nesbitt- Love Letter [20wks] [#03] RETIRED!

POSSIBLE FUTURE DEBUTS + RETURNS: John Newman & Nina Nesbitt "Without You" [50%] Jonas Brothers "Only Human" [45%] Lizzo "Good As Hell" [60%] + maybe more?

What do you mean you were AFRAID after the first 2 singles?  religion is her best song overall. Actually my top 3 from the album are the first 3 she released  And I heard BKLYNLDN + the stage after forevher dropped. I just wish the 1-2-3 punch of ballads was stronger.

It happened again, but harder this time  At least the album isn't too far away, but can they survive until then?

Likely won't even show up on here, honestly

It was #1 on my Best of 2014 list  I do have some regrets about that though  It's definitely a fun bop

Well I don't like Camila's voice at all and she's one of my least favorite people in music right now sooo

Yeah, the competition got too strong  But he should stay in the top 10 for at least another month.

Well, she was gonna survive at least 1 more week but then she was shoved off  At least NRO did better than the entire Witness era combined so that's one thing!

Yep  Ice Cream came out 3.5 months ago, Tiny Love was just released, and the album drops in October.

 

Both singles weren't as instant for me, but they grew into great bops & I know Sunshine Kitty is gonna be amazing.

They keep outdoing my own expectations. I thought they'd debut at #10-15 but they started at #7, now they're blocking my favorite artist of all time during her album release week. I'm really addicted to their album, I already purchased a signed copy

It's definitely leagues better than her ex-groupmates, that's for sure
