American Top 40 - November 16, 2019

[Top 40 Tracker]

This week we say goodbye to two songs that were both AT40 debuts for the artists. "Motivation" by Normani, which was her first solo single without a featured artist and Ava Max's breakthrough hit "Sweet But Psycho."

New this week, Saweetie makes her AT40 debut and becomes the latest female rapper to hit the countdown. Some others include Nicki Minaj, Cardi B, Dev, Da Brat, Missy Elliott, Sarai, Salt-N-Pepa, Iggy Azalea, Monie Love, Khia, Lil Kim, Eve and Kelis.

Selena Gomez debuts with "Lose You To Love Me." She has a great track record so far with four #1s: "Good For You," "Same Old Love," "Hands To Myself" and "It Ain’t Me" with Kygo. Will this be her 5th #1? We’ll find out in the weeks to come!

Billie Eilish scores the biggest mover of the week with her latest single "all the good girls go to hell," jumping up 5 spots to #24. This is her third hit on the chart following "bad guy," which made it all the way to #1 back in August.

In the Top 3 this week, Lizzo drops down 1 spot to #3 with "Truth Hurts." While Post Malone moves up 2 spots to #2 with "Circles." And Lewis Capaldi holds at #1 for a third week with "Someone You Loved." How many more weeks will he stay in the top spot? We'll find out in the weeks to come!

DROPPERS
Normani - Motivation (from #14, 9 weeks on, peak #12)

Has anything else fallen off from has high as #14? I'd have to do some digging to confirm, but I believe that's the biggest drop-off of the Seacrest era.

[goodguy]

"Don't Wanna Know" is an extra after #28.

"Sicko Mode" is an extra between #15 and #14.

"Who Do U Love" is an extra after #8.

That leaves Who Do U Love which is most likely inside the 7 and 6 segment.

I'll update my post above when I hear it later today. iHeart's AT40 channel is still running last week's show. If they don't update soon, I'll check when the show airs in China and in Cambodia tonight.

Also, in 2018 Dua Lipa's "IDGAF" and Drake's "In My Feelings" fell right off from #14.

And while it didn't drop off from as high, "Side Effects" by the Chainsmokers and Emily Warren had a rather similar chart run to "Motivation"; both peaked at #12 during now-short stays (only 7 weeks on AT40 for "Side Effects".)

"Sweet But Psycho" exiting the chart leaves "Wow" for the oldest song this week.

[gemini79]

Slow Dance will surely rebound, I wished All Good Things Fall Apart would of done better (that song is done), its a good song. The next 3 breakouts should be Don't Start Now, Hot Girl Bummer and Writing on the Wall

[gemini79]

Also Don't Tell Me by Madonna fell off at #11 in 2001

Looks like it's, now, a four-way tie for biggest drop-off of the Seacrest era.

[Fire]

I'm surprised How Do You Sleep is top 10...

[johnnywest]

If “Lonely” by Lauv hits the Top 40 while Diplo’s “Lonely” is still around, it’ll be the first time since 1998 when Meredith Brooks and the Spice Girls both had “Stop.”

Though qualified by the fact that "Lonely" is not the full title of the Lauv song, but that the full title includes a word Seacrest and other DJ's can't say on-air.

[Arnold]

Why can't they call it "I'm Lonely"? Is he not allowed to say "I'm"?

[Fire]

I think he's just saying "Lonely" for the sake of when it charts he can say that there are two songs on with the same title.

[Arnold]

There shouldn't be two songs with the same title at the same time. It only causes confusion.

According to Wikipedia, the radio version is titled simply "Lonely."

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuck,_I%27m_Lonely

I'm sure that's the name of the radio single that's being sent to stations as well.
