to say that this hasn't blown up like many other followup singles is silly; the only two new artists from this summer that saw immediate followup were iggy and sam smith And, people may forget this, but Black Widow slowed down quite a bit in the top 20 too. At one point, I was seriously confused that radio was going to flop it since it seemed like a sure shot to me. It definitely didn't roar to #1 with all Taylor Swift/Katy Perry updates.

^Let's not forget that I'm Not The Only one hasn't stormed up the chart either, it's moved up gradually.
Lorde's Team also took a while to peak.

First: didn't you say you believed "Style" was going to be bigger than "Blank Space"? If that's the case, your expectations for "Title" must be out of this world. Second: how in the world is "Blank Space" and "Style" THAT similar? I think the two tracks are pretty distinct from eachother. They both have that one note structure, similar to Katy's California Gurls and Teenage Dream. Much more similar in structure and sound than AATB/LAM and Title. And yes my expectations for it are high, as I feel it is on another level than anything else out there right now. "Blank Space" and "Style" sound nothing alike. Stop. Sorry to everyone for going off topic, but I just had to address this.

She was a superstar on Dancing with the Stars. Most confident performance of hers I've seen yet. She was a total pop star.
All About That Base: #8 Lips are Movin: #10, soon to be #9

Definitely one of her better television gigs, and she absolutely is improving. She did have some issues with breath control - and she needed to skip some lyrics here or there - but this was undeniably effective as a TV showcase.
I still think she needs to think "bigger" with the performances (especially if she wants her tour to be exciting). She doesn't really play to the crowd at all - a lot of it actually comes off like she's dancing alone in front of her mirror. Essentially, I wouldn't imagine her performing any differently if she were filming a clsoed studio performance for Perez Hilton or Yahoo! or something.
Case-in-point: There was no conviction in "I wanna hear y'all sing it with me." That's the kind of thing she should be projecting the crowd - to suggest that she's actually engaging with them (and not just singing the lyrics on the page). She should then do the whole "clap along" thing with the audience (not just her fellow dancers).

I think she's just so new to the dancing and choreography aspect of it all so it'll take time but she keeps improving

She is just too cute. I loved her performance on DWTS. Can't wait for her album in January!

HOT DIGITAL SONGS Trainor's "Lips Are Movin," the follow-up to "All About That Bass," also hits the top 10 for the first time: 19-10 (69,000; up 34 percent).
Top 10 digital songs!
Not this week, but hopefully this can reach the top 10 on the Hot 100.

Up to #19 on Hot 100
Trainor, meanwhile, claims the Hot 100's top Streaming Gainer trophy for follow-up "Lips Are Movin," which vaults 38-19. The track blasts onto Streaming Songs at No. 18 with 5.3 million (up 118 percent) after its video premiered Nov. 19. The clip's arrival also helps generate sales: on Digital Songs, "Lips" becomes Trainor's second top 10, roaring 19-10 (69,000, up 34 percent).

Its iTunes position is great which bodes well for this hitting the Top 10. I can't wait for Title! Music on CHR lately sucks ass and only a few songs are good.

I still like AATB, but this song is really catchy and I see this becoming at least a top 3 for her!!!

I complain about Sam Smith's updates but Meghan's are even worse. Both songs are selling a lot with great callout scores (in Meghans case is the song with the second highest potential behind Blank Space) and the follow ups to big hits so i don't understand why they are not skyrocketing to the top of the chart. Of course if we take Don't as reference, sooner or later both should explode

I still think it's doing just fine. People at Pulse have the worst habit ever of taking a slow day and screaming doom. Many songs had bad updates today. It's also stuck at a weird spot in the chart where stations need to begin putting in in higher rotation, drastically, in order to progress. It's happening more gradually, that's all.

It's not doom, i still think it's going to be at least top 5, but it's true that due sales, being a follow up to a monstruous hit and having callout scores it should be doing way better. Anyway right now the chart is full of songs that should be doing better (I'm not the only one, Centuries, Take me to church even Riptide should be doing way better)
