A point doesn't make that person less than the biggest trash on stan Twitter.

The biggest trash on stan Twitter is 1989outcharted because he’s also a racist

Willow's a great song and I love Taylor, but she clearly was desperate for that #1 and it's not a great look....

but the bottom line's the bottom line and she got what she wanted so  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Vogue named Gaga as the #1 Stylish celebrity of 2020. See when you’re a TRICON

Billboard should really change it´s rules.

Willow

sales = 59.000

streams (30M/150) = 200.000

AIWFCIY

sales = 10.000

streams (40,5M/150) = 270.000

 

In the end, "AIWFCIY" sold 21.000 single units more than "Willow" and had more airplay, but isn´t #1.

Free streams are weighted less though

In the Billboard formula yes, but RIAA weightens streams and views as the same.

[Laurastreep]

I wonder when will Spotify see its Dua investment returns?

Levitating #3 on TTH...#38 on the actual chart.

Wrong investment? 

[Laurastreep]

I had the bad luck of hearing Ed Shitrans new song 

[BenG]

I can see Afterglow end up being a decent top 10 hit tbh

But you were literally talking about positions on BBH100  and billboard gives more weight to paid streams which is fair.

What is not fair here, is allowing to release 1000 Remixes of a song and count them all as one 

[Laurastreep]

You can $0.39 your way to a #1 on the local US chart but what about GLOBALLY...?
