Inverse Points Hot AC 2016 Year-End Chart

[Hot AC Archiver]

This post is for the chart year, 1st week of December 2015-Last week of November 2016. I use a more complex inverse point system based on a formula American Top 40 once used when calculating their own chart. Of course this is just for fun, and Mediabase will release the official year-end chart based on spins.

Pillowtalk peaked at #12. The only song in this top 40 that peaked lower was "My House", which stopped at #14 but spend 2 more weeks on the chart than Pillowtalk.

Still surprised that Pillowtalk peaked that low. I thought that it would have gone top 5 for sure.
