how come I still can't understand a single word Ariana sings even on someone else's song? lol Lol. If I previously didn’t know this song, I wouldn’t have a clue what she was saying.

If I remember correctly, people were already complaining about Mariah's enunciation on the exact line Ari is single when this was first released. It is hilarious she was given that part to sing.

Love the new version of the song! All three women brought their A-game and improved upon the original.

I really like the first verse and think they harmonized really well. I like this more than expected and I think it’s even more fun than the original. The video is joyous.

So does it sample "Mickey"? Mariah looks so perfectly fake once again!

Something's not right in the UK... It's back at #1 with a green update so it was a glitch or something. "AIWFCIY" is #2, so she has the top 2 on UK iTunes.

I think the rules in the UK are going to make that tough unless sales and streaming severely decline for for Ariana.

Considering "Positions" is going on week 7, I assume it's declining. I think "AIWFCIY" will pass it soon enough, the question is more whether something else comes along and blocks it. I assume labels are gunning for that Christmas #1 as usual.

How the hell did Oh Santa not debut on Spotify today? IKR. I think the album being an Apple Music exclusive caused bitterness with Spotify. There’s literally NO playlisting (not even on New Music Friday which literally includes every single release, even indie and international songs every week). This also does not show up on Ariana’s and Jennifer’s pages. Songs, while may not be their own, has historically always shown up on pages for every featured artists. With that being said, I do definitely feel like it’s more of an issue with Spotify themselves.

Not only does Mariah obviously have a deal with Apple Music, but they withheld "OS" until Dec 4 in the U.S. Many playlists were already made/posted because the U.S. turns to a new day later than a lot of the world. "OS" is on the New Holiday Spotify playlist, which I posted.

I read its predicted to re-enter the Hot 100 around #92, which is odd.

I read its predicted to re-enter the Hot 100 around #92, which is odd. I was confused by this also. So they mean the HOT100 for this coming Monday? Or the next one? Also, how can they predict this early when the song came out yesterday? Usually, a new song coming out on a Friday gets its “early” prediction the following Wednesday.

This will be #1 on iTunes for at least 2 days of the chart week, possibly more. It now has over 11.2 million views on YT, so it will get at least 15 million this week (if not 20 million). If half of those views are from the U.S. that would mean 8-10 million streams from YT alone. Its Spotify streams don't look to be too much, but it's doing better on Apple Music. Maybe it can get 15 million streams for the week?
