Choosing TX is expected to be #1 in Sales & Streaming again next week. Should this happen, CT would increase to 15 weeks on Sales & 18 weeks on Streaming. Maybe it can climb back to #5 in airplay again.

She was with the Black Eyed Peas. So BB records the 26 wks as BEP, not Fergie.

As someone said a few weeks ago, what ATRL likes & the real world likes very rarely correlate. I really like the Choosing TX & especially Ella as an artist. But Active Rock & Country are my favorite music formats.

Choosing TX is #1 Streaming 17th wk & #1 Sales 14th wk. But Ella's been stuck at #6 on Radio Songs forever despite slow though steady gains. Yes, I know CT has already reached #4 there. But I'd like for CT to at least return to #5 on airplay while it's still #1 on the other 2.

That's plenty for #2 right now.

I haven't seen the article yet though. This is from TOTC.

Well going into what could be #1 wk 18, Choosing TX currently ranks #1 on Amazon, Spotify, Apple Music & ITunes. I remember reading she & Koe Wetzel were teaming up for another collab, since he gave Ella her 1st hit. But I didn't realize that was today. So she'll have 2 collabs on this coming Country Airplay Chart.

Will BB even count these 11th hr varients?

The biggest city stations are the last to add crossover Country hits, if they ever do. Last Night fit in better at the format, so eventually all stations [begrudgingly] added it. Still stations dropped it like a rock the moment it's consumption faltered. Fast Car was an 80s remake. I Had Some Help featured Post Malone, ABS Tipsy sampled a rap song (& was simply too big all around to ignore). So Z100 is just being an assh○le at this point for refusing to play it.

Now the 2 Petal versions still on ITunes are at #6 & #169. So 1 ver disappeared & 1 really dropped (-133). It's still #4 on AM though. That hasn't changed from earlier.

I'm surprised their Africa cover wasn't certified at least Gold.

Be Her's been on BBs AC chart for a while now. CT isn't slowing down & BH long since finished its Country Airplay Chart run. I agree BH is more Pop friendly than CT. I would prefer they come back to BH after ICLYA though. Both songs deserve a mainstream radio release push.

It's T10 in Norway 🇳🇴 & T15 in Sweden 🇸🇪 so I assume it's popularity is spilling over. CT has reached the T100 on AM & ITunes there before so airplay may respond to that too. EDIT In the Netherlands 🇳🇱 CT is currently #7 ITunes, #92 Spotify & #43 AM. So she's definitely rising there.

I'm pulling for I Can't Love You Anymore. ICLYA just needs mainstream radio to kick in. That song sounds far more at home there than Choosing TX. OK CT is about to pass Stateside with bigger spin gains than nearby songs. Maybe it'll finally reach T10 at BB CHR.

Cher reached #2 at 52 at CHR & overall Radio in 99 with Believe & spent 5 #1 wks on Dance Club Songs. The last 15 years the chart existed only 1 song spent more than 2 wks there was Madonna's Hung Up in late 2005 had 4 wks & 11 Top 10 wks. @LUSHx Boston is outconsuming it's airplay so radio is going to add it.
