So like the CHR show (for the third straight week), they went to (at least) four Breakout/On The Verge songs.

And also like CHR, they had to place two of the Breakouts in one hour (Hour #2 in both instances) instead of having one Breakout every hour.

And WILL PERFECT JUST F***ING DIE ALREADY?!?!?!?!?

I can’t wait for Perfect to fall off and return 5 weeks later and climb to 30 again.

And they have an extra in the top 3. I HATE THAT

[Deleted]

It’s been like that forever... We hate excessive breakouts and get mad so I’m questioning why you hate it.

[musiciscool]

I love hearing the songs from 10 years ago or so. Brings the nostalgia factor into the show.


And, yes, fall off the chart, and stay off Ed.

[upland1425]

As to this week's extras, Chasing Cars is from 2006, So What is from 2008, and Use Somebody is from 2009 ;)

I just realized "Perfect" have been on the chart 86 weeks, when will your faves?

[ericNY2002]

Perfect will probably fall off next week when "I Don't Care" debuts. Can't have any weeks without an Ed Sheeran song on the charts lol.

[johnnywest]

On the latest Mediabase chart, “Perfect” has 1,409 spins. That puts it somewhere between “Here With Me” (1,616) and “Someone You Love” (1,361).

[eidde]

Perfect still getting so many spins on AC and Hot AC is probably why they are so reluctant to get rid of it, although it is still very annoying to see.
