Thinkin' Bout Me should be done as it's at #21 this week (and Fast Car is more likely than not out as well). Snooze and Last Night could survive, depends on how well Future's doing in the 21-25 tier. Slimed In seems to be the only other Future song in that range that I'd bet would be there, and the rest of the top 25 should consist of Never Lose Me and Saturn. So my bet is on both of them surviving for now. They're probably a coin flip to survive Bey and are done after Taylor. If anyone has the actual data on the top 25 that'd be great.

What was the biggest year any individual artist had this century so far?

Is Taylor Swift in the same position in her career that Beyoncé was after the release of her self-titled album? It feels like after Midnights she has moved from from being a pop superstar and is now a living legend.

If its only separated by 14 points then maybe it has a chance to get back to #1 down the line.

Is it possible he’ll break the 10-week record held by Foreigner and Missy Elliott?

Famed Trump supporters, Zach Bryan and Kacey Musgraves.

Does IRE have a chance at repeating at #1 next week?

Is there a chance Doja leapfrogs Luke for the #2 at the last minute?

Is it possible this passes Fast Car for the #2 this week?

If it remains stable does it have a chance at staying #1 for Week 2?

Holy…at those Zach/Kacey numbers. With that song’s stability I wouldn’t rule out getting multiple weeks atop the Hot 100, especially if radio latches on. Even if country snubs it I could see Pop/HAC/AC eating this song up. As It Was, Anti-Hero and Flowers’s airplay was basically all those three formats and they were radio monsters. (And please remember not to leave Zach Bryan’s name out of the thread title when you update it. It’s very much his song as much as it is Kacey’s.)

If she only gets PDR numbers then I don’t think it’ll be enough for #1. Luke’s best hope is that Zach & Kacey are out of the running after this week, Doja’s new song siphons enough support from PTTR to keep it below, and Nicki’s new song doesn’t do much better than Princess Diana did. Also applies for Taylor but she’ll need an actual push to get it past Luke.

Do you think it's possible it becomes a hit on CHR or Hot AC, even if not on country?

We don't have any Apple Music data so we don't really have an idea of how it's holding up in terms of how many times it's been listened to, rather than just its position. Do you think the song might have more opportunities at #1 if radio latches on, or is this its only chance?

Spotify streams have been going down every day, and the gap between IRE and PTTR is down to a little over 100k, compared to 600k on its first day.

But this could be Fast Car's last chance at #1.

I want Fast Car to get it this week. This may be its last chance given how rapidly Doja is rising. Though I’m not sure Zach & Kacey will have another chance at #1 either after this week.

What about Fast Car?

Uhh, why isn’t Zach’s name mentioned in the title.

He should have no trouble beating Fast Car, Last Night, and Cruel Summer. Beating out week 3 of Rich Men, though, is another thing entirely.

Why isn’t Rich Men falling like Small Town did?

I want Luke to get it. Taylor will have more opportunities for #1 in the next coming weeks but this might be Luke’s last chance.

How can it overcome a 20,000 sales gap?

Do you think Billboard may consider a change to the Hot 100 formula this week?

He’ll be needing far more streams than he got this week in order to go #1 on the Hot 100.
