BenG Popster for Sale 41,876 Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 On 4/18/2023 at 5:33 PM, lookwhatyoumademedo said: There's plenty of songs with impressive chart runs (20 weeks+) that were released before the streaming era. Just some of them: "How Do I Live" by LeAnn Rimes - 32 weeks "Smooth" by Santana featuring Rob Thomas - 30 weeks "Party Rock Anthem" by LMFAO featuring Lauren Bennett and GoonRock - 29 weeks "Iris" by Goo Goo Dolls - 28 weeks "You Were Meant for Me"/"Foolish Games" by Jewel - 28 weeks "Truly Madly Deeply" by Savage Garden - 27 weeks "Apologize" by Timbaland featuring OneRepublic - 25 weeks "How to Save a Life" by The Fray - 24 weeks "No One" by Alicia Keys - 24 weeks "I Don't Want to Miss a Thing" by Aerosmith - 22 weeks "The Way You Move" by OutKast featuring Sleepy Brown - 22 weeks "Low" by Flo Rida featuring T-Pain - 22 weeks "I'm Yours" by Jason Mraz - 22 weeks "Yeah!" by Usher featuring Lil Jon and Ludacris - 21 weeks "Fallin'" by Alicia Keys - 21 weeks 1. Not you having to dig up some really old songs to prove that a 19-week run in the top 10 is underwhelming 2. Many of these songs didn't have to compete with streaming-heavy songs Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Sorry" and "Love Yourself" spent way more weeks in the top 10. They also stomped all over "Hello" on the year-end chart. List of songs on Billboard's 2016 Year-End Hot 100 chart[2] No. Title Artist(s) 1 "Love Yourself" Justin Bieber 2 "Sorry" Justin Bieber 3 "One Dance" Drake featuring Wizkid and Kyla 4 "Work" Rihanna featuring Drake 5 "Stressed Out" Twenty One Pilots 6 "Panda" Desiigner 7 "Hello" Adele 8 "Don't Let Me Down" The Chainsmokers featuring Daya 9 "Can't Stop the Feeling!" Justin Timberlake 10 "Closer" The Chainsmokers featuring Halsey Not you using a chart that is based on the very chart which methodology favours streaming to prove your point Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its streams are very underwhelming because it was frontloaded and forgotten. Sorry (11× Platinum) Love Yourself (9x Platinum, early 2022) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
