- Well, Iggy and Rita finally get to climb all the way to #1.
- No "Two For One" with Maroon 5 (a recent subject) debuting in the Top 10 with their latest which necessitated an extra Breakout

I thought that "Black Widow" was going to be screwed out of #1 this week. I'm glad that Iggy and Rita got there. If this follows the Mediabase chart completely, Taylor should be back to #1 next week, then "Bang Bang", then "Habits".

[johnnywest]

That means Iggy's first three singles have all gone to #1. I think Lady Gaga was the last to do that. Adele missed the Top 40 with her first release, "Chasing Pavements."

[Lahey's Lucky Star]

Maroon 5 could have gotten a Two For One, it's just that Taylor's been gaining a sh*t-ton of spins so it had to debut in the AT40 at some point.

No..."Problem" isn't her single per se.

Her first three entries though. Still pretty impressive.

After a cold open to #40, last week, they'e back to the standard opening with the top 3 recap, this week. I guess they'll be alternating between the two.

This week's show is screwed up on iHeart. They're not playing the second segment of hour 3 (17-14) and are, instead, replaying the second segment of hour 2 (27-24) in it's place. At least that was the case with the two broadcasts yesterday evening.

Iggy made it to #1. I almost thought she might draw the short straw and not make it. Next week's #1 is looking to be a crapshoot. Will Taylor reclaim #1? Could "Bang Bang" sneak in a week on top? Will Tove Lo steamroll over the competition? The last one is the least likely option, IMO, but still in the realm of possibility depending on how close things are with the reporting panel differences.

[mkarns]

I don't think the "cold" opening into #40 should ever be used, but if they must do so at times it should be limited to big hits on the way out after a long time on the chart, as at least most listeners will already know the song.

Three almost equally plausible #1's for next week feels somewhat unusual nowadays. I think "Habits" will be on top in two weeks (11/22), and from the Mediabase chart it could conceivably be the next to last AT40 #1 of 2014. Only "Animals" looks to have a good chance to follow it there as of now, though by December something else might end up breaking through.

When introducing "Black Widow," Ryan mentioned that Iggy was the first female rapper to be on three #1 singles.

[richie]

Lots of new music this week. I like it! We actually get a "Break" song
as a Breakout. Bebe actually has 2 weeks on here. Who would have thought
we'd get 2 different Sams singing on AT 40?
Ryan never says "Stay High", just Habits. He did say that Bang Bang is one step
closer to the top, which may be a hint as to next week's #1. I noticed that the
segment lengths are rather uneven.

Yes!! She also became the 1st woman ever to have consecutive #1 hits on the chart back in July: www.facebook.com/americantop40/photos/a.226765834002435.70037.196745970337755/841553069190372/?type=1
