American Top 40 - December 7, 2019

[Top 40 Tracker]

This week we say goodbye to "Old Town Road" by Lil Nas X. The track spent 31 weeks on the chart, peaking at #4 back in June.

New this week, the only debut is "Highest In The Room" by Travis Scott. This is his fifth AT40 hit. His first was “Antidote” in 2016, and in the years since, he’s collaborated with others on "Know No Better," "Woke Up" and "Sicko Mode."

The biggest mover of the week goes to Blackbear with "Hot Girl Bummer," which jumped up 8 spots to #28. He first hit the countdown in 2017 with "Do Re Mi," peaking at #31. How far will his second hit climb? We’ll find out in the weeks to come!

In the Top 3 this week, Lewis Capaldi falls 1 spot to #3 with "Someone You Loved." While Post Malone drops from the top spot to #2 with "Circles," which means there is a brand new song on top...Up 2 spots from last week, Lizzo is 100% that #1 AT40 artist with "Good As Hell."

She is also performing at this year's iHeartRadio Jingle Ball in New York City, alongside a star-studded lineup. Fans will be able to watch the show on December 13th via an exclusive livestream on The CW app and CWTV.com. The CW Network will also broadcast the event as a nationwide special on Thursday, December 19th at 8pm ET. Fans will also be able to listen to December 13th's festivities across the country on 100 iHeartRadio CHR stations.

Question is, Is AT40 Current hit chart until December 14, 2019 to give way to the Top 40 of 2019 and the Top 40s of the decade?

BTW... looks like something's missing.

[Deleted]

It looks to me like Highest In the Room will be the only debut, with Old Town Road being the only dropout.

Lonely and Take what you Want my also debut

They are both listed as OTV, so that’s impossible.

I keep an ear out on iHeartrRadio app for the last segment as well

The computer iHeart version of AT40 is still doing last week's show. Anybody know why they haven't switched to this week's show yet? This is unusual for it to still be in the old show so late.

New show has started.

[Arnold]

"No Promises" was played between #14 and the break.

[Top 40 Tracker]

Chart is finalized and show has been posted.

[Fire]

I love how the Lonely's are played back to back on the chart lmfao

[richie]

^The show didn't want either one to get lonely.

[richie]

19 extras (including the optionals). I think that's a record high!

A record high I don't like.  I think it's time they shorten the show to 3 hours.

[Fire]

Guys, what is SO BAD ABOUT EXTRAS. It's nice nostalgia to listen to. The only time oldies are bad is if it's still on the countdown (that is it's still on past 52 weeks). Hearing almost the EXACT same set of songs every week is so boring, we need some extras.

Good luck ever getting an answer to that question

There is an extra in basically every segment. Way too many.

Agree with you 100%!

Oh my goodness. Roxanne is on the Breakout Spot!

But... There's a remix on these songs:

1. Good For You - features A$AP Rocky
2. Good As Hell - features Ariana Grande

Why there's only solo parts without featured artist?

[Fire]

^Because AT40 doesn't play the remixes unless it's something like "Beautiful", which was sent to the radio already to begin with.
