But yes, this has run its course. Taylor needs to move on and release Debut TV. Part of the reason why the music landscape is so dry is because she's only released once since TTPD 2.5 years ago.

It's definitely Drake. Hotline Bling and One Dance definitely tip the scale in his favor. One Dance is sixth most streamed song all-time on Spotify.

Make that 4 weeks at #1 for Be By You on Billboard Country airplay: https://s3.amazonaws.com/bulletins.billboard.com/country/country_update_2026_0911.pdf Boston should take over at #1 next week. Looks like drop dead is going to beat it there.

I just found this article (from The Guardian last month) that focused on RMI, and why despite it being the longest running #1 of all-time, some people have never heard it: https://www.theguardian.com/music/2026/aug/05/demise-monoculture-why-have-so-many-never-heard-uk-record-breaking-no-1-single-sam-fender-olivia-dean

It was either Love At First Sight or Come Into My World

If I remember correctly, Mariah also released and was #2. I guess one of these had to have blocked Mariah.

No recurrents on Pop, boring week with no meaningful movement.

lol at Natalie Imbruglia and Dexys Midnight Runners beating out Ellie. I had no idea Dexys Midnight Runners was still active. I mean, I haven't heard anything from them outside of Come On Eileen.

It's everywhere. This is the first song in a really long time that's hard to escape. In my trip to Ohio last month, I heard the song play in two of my Uber rides (with one of the drivers singing it loud and proud). This past weekend, in Boston, I heard the song play in a Home Depot. Oh, and in my trip to Vermont in early March (that was a half year ago), I read a story about how CT made history by being #1 on the Hot 100. This was long before I first heard this song. So, it was already #1 before it became big. I've never seen anything like that before.

Surprised Taylor didn't make the Top 3 at Lincoln Financial Field. I would have thought she would have topped that list with the Eras Tour.

KMM nearing 2.5 billion and is currently the most daily streamed song of 2021.

Yeah, 2003-04 was definitely the R&B period here in the US. Alicia Keys and Usher definitely defined that period. Throw in a little dancehall, with Kevin Lyttle. Hip hop was more popular in 2005-08.
