Chart is up now.

[richie]

The top 4 has really old songs! Super jackpot at number 16.

[Top 40 Tracker]

[YodaWars1000]

Another super disappointing week. Hopefully Electricity and Lost In Japan will have the greatest rises.

What the fuck is doing No Brainer at #7 ??

AT40 is of course behind the contemperaneous Mediabase chart. That said, with No Brainer having dropped to #23 on MB as of today I suspect it may be taking a pretty hard fall on the countdown soon.

We saw this with In My Feelings, which seemed to linger in AT40's top 10 for longer than MB would seem to justify--and then last week fell right off the countdown from #14 even while today it's still in Mediabase's top 40 (around #30-31).

I'm putting it at #14 on next week's chart.

That seems like too many extras in the first hour. It's probably because of the breakout in there.

Is I Love It one of the shortest songs ever to be played? The radio edit is only like 1:45

Ryan says this song runs 1:53 and would be the shortest song of the year if it charts before the end of the year.

That's a lot of extras, period. 14 total, this week, counting all the Breakouts and Optionals. One quarter of the show's content. Too much, if you ask me.

Sorry Bazzi, "Mine" no longer has that distinction. Well, at least this ain't following "Mine" to #1. (It falls out of the Mediabase top 40 today, and having only peaked at #36 there it might never actually make the countdown chart.)

I wonder if Premiere could help tightly programmed stations save time by making a special three hour edition, which at this point could probably be done by cutting out extras and just going #40-#1 without much trimming of the countdown songs, similar to the early/mid 70s Casey shows before songs started getting longer enough to make a fourth hour desirable. Even the first few years of four hour AT40s often felt padded, though 14 extras (which means at least 10 for all stations, even if they completely ignore the optionals) might be the most for any AT40 ever.

1. I've always pointed out on this board that I hate when AT40 does four Breakout/On The Verge songs because there is not always the guarantee their chosen Breakouts will actually debut (Regardless if "I Love It" does debut, it also better not hang around too long like the infamous "SoulMate" did earlier this year).

2. There's already a three-hour version of AT40. It's called the iHeart Radio channel. Take out all the commercials and op extras and there you go.

Body or Consequences should of been a breakout instead of I Love It

[Top 40 Tracker]

Don't forget Hi FM's 3 hour version too.

[Deleted]

They should find other and better ways to burn time than 4 breakouts and most of which barely will last. I like the breakouts just not this much

[Deleted]

Also, (sorry for double posting) I wish there was a way where top 40 tracker could play the actual songs on his prediction chart I’m sure a long night of editing would work but that wouldn’t be fun. I’ve also watched your videos for a long time then I found this forum page so I signed up. Also I like how you post your vids here every week

On the Hot AC show, Girls Like You achieved for 12 consecutive weeks at #1 this week, and becomes the second longest running #1 song of the decade.

It’s rediculous how inconsistant this chart is. I get it that it is two weeks behind and Ariana will be number one in two weeks but DJ Khaled going up a point?? Where is Drake at number 31 or so with In My felings? Instead of Falling off at 14? Extras are rediculous at 14.

[Devil Marlena Nylund]

It’s interesting they can even fit that many extras in but I guess that’s what happens when the average length of a pop song has dropped dramatically over the last couple years. It seems like more and more pop singles clock in at under 3 minutes. Though considering how many people listen to a song halfway through before skipping it, it only makes sense. I’d say they’re going for a more is more approach. If they don’t fill the time with extras, what’s the alternative other than dropping the show to 3 hours. Somehow I feel like that’s not exactly an option.
