The Pulse board is always an indicator of a hit. LoL Bruno Mars is awful but, Hilary Duff is the second coming. Oh and Cassie too. BTW I Love "Sparks" and purchased it on the 1st day of release.
I personally love this song by the Weekend and find "The Hills" and even "Earned It" kind of boring. I guess we all have different tastes.

While everyone's talking about the Michael Jackson influences here, am I the only one who senses some Janet? I get "All For You" and "And On And On" vibes from this one.

That Selena & A$AP song has Janet influences all over it, but this is modeled directly from Thriller's sound as close as you can get and still be contemporary, which is very close anyway.

That Selena & A$AP song has Janet influences all over it See this I don't hear at all. For starters, Janet's hits are loaded with personality. Melodically it's very Michael, but there are other elements that bring Janet to mind too. I just remembered that even Pitchfork linked this to his little sis in their review of "No Sleeep."

Melodically it's very Michael, but there are other elements that bring Janet to mind too. I just remembered that even Pitchfork linked this to his little sis in their review of "No Sleeep." I'm doing this from a phone and I don't want to risk messing up the quote by moving and copying stuff, so I'll address the points like this: 1. I never mentioned anything about Selena's performance, I meant more he actual vibe and setting of the track and what is ideally demanded of it. It has influences from Anytime Anyplace quite clearly throughout, as well as several other slow jams that shes done from the 90s onward. Is it well emulated and delivered by the performer? No, but that doesn't mean the influence isn't there. I don't think she succeeded at all whatsoever, but imo it is obvious that she was trying to channel Janet's style of singing from their records too. 2. It's nowhere just melodically imo. The drum production is done so finely to reminisce that of Wanna Be Starting Something, the synthesizers sound similar to those on that album too, not to mention the background scats. It's pretty much michael's signatures through and through.

Not a bad song and see why it's a hit but it sounds very been there/done it w/ the whole MJ thing. It's simply a catchy/ decent enough song but nothing that special. Def. a good song for the summer but think Cheerleader is gonna most likely be its main competition and prevent this from going to #1. Still dont really care for Cheerleader but actually prefer it to this. I think it's a stronger, more unique track. This has a nice retro beat (though def. overused the last few years) but Bruno def. does MJ/retro songs better than this group lol.

It's going to be neck and neck with Cheerleader in a few weeks for #1 and #2. They are both decent songs, but agreed, Cheerleader is a bit more unique. They'll dominate the top two positions until the end of summer, deservedly so.

They'll dominate the top two positions until the end of summer, deservedly so. Yep, this reeking from a Get Lucky vs Blurred Lines (esque) kind of competition. Two r&b/ retro-ish songs (CFMF more so obviously) but one of them def. 'different'/ more standout (Cheerleader). Looking like (at least based on iTunes) that CFMF is stabilizing at #2 and staying consistently around 25% behind Cheerleader. Both songs are equally red hot and while I think CFMF def has a shot to hit #1 on pop radio, I think it's overall points will make it stall at #2 for several weeks. Again, a BL/ GL probable scenario from 2013. If CFMF first came out in a month or two, I think it would def. have a good shot at #1. I think people are gonna burn out on it though much more quickly than Cheerleader. Again, not that crazy about the song but it's def. a grower and a perfect summer song. I rarely if ever turn if off when it comes on. CFMF I'm already starting to get sick of lol.

I am also getting a little tired of CFMF, but it's better than like 75% of the CHR\POP chart.
I think Cheerleader will get a break with being played quite a bit more on Hot AC and especially AC. Cheerleader is safe enough for a senior citizen to enjoy, and I'm sure even KidzBops will cut a version too.
When it's all said and done, The Weeknd will definitely have more hits, many more hits to OMI's one (and I'm sure some very similar sounding song that peaks next summer at like #39 or something), so I suppose he can let OMI enjoy this summer.
