Absolutely phenomenal week for "The Bones" on Mediabase as Maren Morris gains 4 spots to #6 and gains 834 spins for the week. Look for this song to hit #1 after "10,000 Hours" and I would not be shocked to see this song to block "Kinfolks" by Sam Hunt from a Billboard #1.

In addition to gaining well at radio, "The Bones" gained 10 spots on this week's Hot 100 to clock in at #26!

I'm so happy this is becoming such a big hit fantastic song!
I'd love to see it chart again over on pop just to fully cross over but otherwise I can't complain!

I actually hear this song quite a bit in NY. In fact a week ago I was driving my friend to the movie theater when Even Though I'm Leaving came on. My friend changed it and say, "Ugh. Country is garbage." *Immediately switches to a pop station playing The Bones I didn't tell him. He's a lost cause. LMAO.

Love this, glad to see it doing so well. I hope it can manage top 20 on the Hot 100. I assume this is in a good position to go to #1 on country airplay? Would love this to cross over the Pop again.

The version with Hozier sounds amazing on radio, is this being pushed to pop?

I like the sound of their voices together but I didn’t love the overall collaboration because it sounds like he just recorded his separately and they didn’t even bother to have Maren re-record her part to match his vocal. I think it could’ve been amazing if they had done a take together in the same recording booth.

Anyways, I do love the version with Hozier just because it seems to add that layer of rawness I always wanted in this song. Hozier's voice truly is an instrument on its own and really can push the depths of a song. I'm surprised he isn't asked to collab more often for this fact alone, not to mention the fact his voice is extremely recognizable! Too bad most collabs these days have to be with a rapper to increase the popularity of a song first, worry about how to actually make the song better second.

I enjoy Hozier's voice typically, but I definitely think that the version with him is subpar and the original solo version is the only one I use. Bummed that it doesn't seem like they have any intention still of pushing it properly to CHR despite the efforts to get it to crossover to other charts like HAC. I think it would've at least made it into the top 30 on CHR if they'd given it an adds date and even the slightest push, so it's a missed opportunity that they seem to have passed on doing that.

I honestly think this could have 2 weeks at #1 on Billboard. What was the last solo female single to spend 2 or more weeks at #1? I'm guessing a Carrie Underwood single did.

Carrie Underwood"Blown Away" back in October of 2012. There have been a few solo female #1s that I feel like if the label really wanted a second week at #1 they could have gotten it ("Heartbeat", "Peter Pan").

Unless I somehow skipped over something... the last multi-week solo female #1 on country radio was Carrie Underwood's "Blown Away," for the charting weeks of October 27 + November 3. How grossly embarrassing. Country radio absolutely suuuuuucks.

Up to #22 on the Hot 100 and #3 on Country Airplay. I think when this hits #1 it'll have a good shot at being top 20 on the Hot 100, which is pretty incredible.

Wow, #1 on callout! I love seeing the success of “The Bones”. When was the last time a female artist did that?

Post by Elusive Chanteuse on Jan 31, 2020 11:33:14 GMT -5
YES! Maren deserves this. With the callouts being fantastic (and this song in every other metric doing great as well), I'm hoping Columbia will push for a multi-week #1!

It seems like this can safely sit at #1 for a couple of weeks without actually blocking anybody, but I would love to see Columbia try to block Sam Hunt or even Jimmie Allen and sit this atop the charts for three (four???) straight weeks. Like previously mentioned, considering this being #1 in callout, #2 in streaming, and consistently selling high.... three weeks would not be that absurd.

Look at that audience gap for Maren Morris at MediaBase. She has her work cut out for her:
2 1 JON PARDI Heartache Medication 8738 8148 590 54.037 3 2 MAREN MORRIS The Bones 7766 7336 430 44.193

Like "The Bones" isn't pushing for #1 this week, next week will easily hit #1 and I do think she is gonna get multiple weeks.

Yeah, I see this one sliding right into #1 likely next week and staying there for a couple of weeks, hopefully three!

Country radio,
Please please please let us have Maren Morris break those horrible streak and have a multi week number 1!
Though I think they're have been better female leads, and even better singles from Maren from the last multi week number 1, this is by no means a bad song. It's very good!

The top 10 is super weak right now. Other than this song & homesick I don’t think radio really loves any song in the top 10 (excluding songs that have already peaked).
I don’t think it’s going to happen, but I’d be so here for Maren blocking: Sam’s, Jimmie, Kane & followed by Jake blocking Jason and Luke.

I highly doubt she blocks Sam from #1. With Pardi getting a week at the top on Billboard I’m not sure she’s gonna get a 2 week run like I thought she would. I think it’ll be her, Sam, Kane and then Jake in that order as the next #1’s. Jimmie and Jason I don’t want to see hit the top. I hope Kane blocks Jimmie and Jake blocks Jason. Jake should pass Luke on Billboard this week and hopefully will pass Jason the next week. That song is really moving and it would be funny to have a song called Homesick be #1 with another called Homemade being #1 the next week.

Climbs to #1 on Mediabase today:
3 1 MAREN MORRIS The Bones 8140 7522 618 46.760
I believe it's the first #1 by a female solo artist since her own "GIRL" (technically there was "What Happens in a Small Town" with Lindsay Ell I guess)?

"Southbound" hit #1 on Mediabase in early October I think, but "The Bones" will be the first Billboatd solo female #1 since "Girl", (sad thing is that the only songs with female vocals to hit the Billboard #1 the last year are the three previously mentioned and "What If I Never Get Over You").
