Closer debuted at #27 for this week's upcoming chart. Heathens will probably debut either next week, or be a breakout or Subway Fresh Buzz Song.

oops i didnt notice the chart is up. Thanks!

I wonder how much longer Cheap Thrills will last at #1 and if it will block Ride from #1 or not. I'd say Cheap Thrills is gonna stay at #1 until Closer takes it (or Cold Water) with 7 or 8 total weeks at #1, the most in a while.

Should be a minimum of 6 weeks for Cheap Thrills then Ride for at least a week until Cold Water takes over.

If "Ride" gets to #1 on the Mediabase chart, then it should make it to #1 on AT40. I'm hoping for it to do so. Time will tell.

yup it should happen. iHeartRadio Countdown give #1 to Ride this week.

Ryan mentioned that "Lights" was #1 exactly 4 years ago.

Awesome to see "The Sound" as a breakout, I thought it sounded great on my playlist but it sounds 10x better on the radio!

[Ice Cream 15 (Broccoli 2018)]

Heathens should debut the same week Ride reaches number 1, which would be cool. Don't Mind drops 15 which I believe ties Perfect by One Direction for the largest drop in 2016. I still don't think it will be Don't Mind's last week on AT40.
7 songs in the top 12 stayed put. The rest was on the move (with the exception being the debuts). 3 double-digit movers. When was the last time there have been 2 songs dropping at least 10 in the same week?
