American Top 40 - June 22, 2019

[Top 40 Tracker]

There is an odd chart move as High Hopes rebounds 7 notches higher. The 5 debuts this week is the most this year so far. Sucker extends its run at #1 for seven weeks, also, the longest run this year.

Ryan goes on vacation for the next two weeks. MAX will be your guest host next week and Andy Grammer will be your guest host for the first show in July.

Mabel - Don't Call Me Up (from #20, 11 weeks on)
The Chainsmokers featuring 5 Seconds Of Summer - Who Do You Love (from #18, 15 weeks on)



It's a busy week on AT40, both for songs that have fallen off the chart and new debuts, there are five of each.

The only solo artist track we say goodbye to this week is "Don't Call Me Up" by Mabel, the collabs include Lauv and Troye Sivan's "i'm so tired...," The Chainsmokers and 5 Seconds of Summer's "Who Do You Love," Marshmello and Chvrches' "Here With Me" and BTS' "Boy With Luv" featuring Halsey.

New to the chart this week is Lizzo with her second AT40 hit with "Truth Hurts," which was actually released back back in September of 2017.

Katy Perry returns with her 26th AT40 hit "Never Really Over." Her last completely solo hit was "Rise" back in 2016, which peaked at #25.

DJ Khaled cracks the chart with the latest offering off his Father of Asahd album "Just Us" featuring SZA.
MAX debuts with "Love Me Less" featuring Quinn XCII. He is best known for “Lights Down Low” featuring Gnash, which peaked at #7 last year, and spent 47 weeks on the chart.

And the highest debut of the week goes to Ed Sheeran, coming in at #23 with "Cross Me" featuring Chance the Rapper and PnB Rock.

In the Top 3 this week, Sam Smith and Normani drops down another spot to #3, while Post Malone inches closer to the top, up two spots from last week landing at #2 with "Wow," the track has been climbing the chart since February.

And the Jonas Brothers are spending a 7th non-consecutive week at #1 with "Sucker," making it the longest run at the top for a group since Maroon 5 topped the chart with "One More Night" for 7 weeks in 2012. How much longer will "Sucker" stay at #1? We'll find out in the weeks to come!




My prediction for next week:

[johnnywest]

Wow, when’s the last time we saw 5 debuts? 2017?

Top 40 Tracker’s got me on the edge of my seat. Good lord.

K so Chl and LML are OTV, CM, NRO & TH are all correct? Don’t tell me Medicine debuted! BO YNTCD?

Edit Unless LML debuted and Medi is still OTV with Chl, BO could be CYM, seeing the three debuts I got right are obvious. (Then I get one wrong :kii: The other debut is mind-boggling.

Edit Again What time do you plan to put the chart up every Friday?


Edit x3 It’s also very hard not to got to your channel. So looking at current MB positions SD and JU are two that I see as well. And even Para, so perhaps one of those is the last BO, CYM and FUA also have hope, as for droppers, IST..., BWL, You, SM are just some guesses, can’t wait to see!

Why is the prediction exactly the same? SD with the BO and WDYL already falls out jeez.

[MitchWolf - ChartStan]

Biggest Rise: Nightmare (+8...24-16)
Largest Fall: BUWYGIB (-4...6-10)

[Leo ✔]

why the fuck High Noise is back on top 20!?

[Deleted]

YB better fall out next week, it’s not deserving of 52 at all.

[gemini79]

This chart is rediculous, this is Ryan and his staff chart, I believe they do whatever, old songs staying on over a year, old songs moving up 7 places that should of fell off weeks ago. I wish it will be like it was when Casey was the host, the good ole days

[johnnywest]

According to the latest Mediabase chart with recurrents, "Love Lies" and "Youngblood" are still in the Top 40:

pulsemusic.proboards.com/thread/130769/mediabase-chr-pop-top-recurrents?page=15

Songs are staying on for over a year because radio stations are still playing the same songs that came out a year ago. That's the "fault" of the radio stations, not whoever does the charts.

Unfortunately that is true. AT40 should be following the Mediabase chart that removes the recurrents.  Recurrents should not be considered as current music.  AT40 has the choice of which chart to follow.  If radio stations want to play oldies they should not be considered for AT40.  Some radio stations are playing songs from 20 and 30 years ago.  Should they be considered?  If not, why not.  Anyway, AT40 is choosing to play oldies that are not on the top 40 too.  Some of them are as old as year 2011.  Why aren't all the extras current music.  There is plenty of new music they could be playing.  They don't have to resort to oldies to fill the time.

Just wanted to point out also that "High Hopes" is #23 with recurrents.

[Arnold]

In the 1950's, 1960's, 1970's, 1980's, and 1990's radio stations made the distinction between current music and oldies. They submitted their current playlists to Billboard and other chart makers. And that was what was used to make the charts. When Mediabase took over, and surveyed what the stations were playing directly, that's when the oldies got mixed in. So Mediabase decided to have a recurrent rule. AT40 used to honor that recurrent rule, or at least they had a recurrent rule of their own. In the past 2 years or so they have been gradually dropping their recurrent rule, allowing older and older songs to linger on the chart. They still seem to have some recurrent rule left, otherwise "New Rules" (no pun intended) would still be on AT40 today.

[Deleted]

Then why haven’t LL or YB fallen off with this rule.

[Arnold]

Jun 21, 2019 17:53:52 GMT -5 @tweety said:

Because their recurrent rule is almost gone now. Maybe it's completely gone, but they don't want to re-enter any song that has already dropped off (like "New Rules"). But the way things are going, there will be more extremely old songs in the countdown than there is now.  

[Top 40 Tracker]

I will add chart commentary to the post from AT40 every Monday when possible. I posted it below the chart. I hope you enjoy it.

[Devil Marlena Nylund]

Unfortunately, radio is at a point right now where they can't afford to play too many songs that a majority of audiences aren't familiar with. It isn't the 80s and 90s anymore and if AT40 went with the (far superior) recurrent rule chart, there'd be too many songs in a row that just aren't that popular. They'd have to amp up the number of Extras in between them just to keep it familiar. People would tune out. It sucks but that's likely the way it's going to be.
