Yay for Fun. Some Nights is also #38.
Also glad that none of the Glee covers for this competition episode are doing that well, since it exploited and butchered a serious issue to give Magical Redemption to the show's villains. The last competition episode had We Are Young at #1.

There will be a new competition next week as Carrie Underwood's new single (GOOD GIRL) will be available.

Slaydele will have 4 songs in the top 10 by tomorrow! :o[/quote]
25. Rumour Has It - ADELE
Time for the fourth single to start its rise.[/quote]
My only concern with Rumour not quite reaching its full potential, is that it's already sold so well. And with 21's sales so high, sales of future singles will likely be lower and lower. Personally, I think we're seeing a little bit of that with Fire right now, despite its success.

I do agree that RHI probably won't fare as well on the charts as the first three singles, but SFTTR had sold about a million before it really took off at radio and it had no problem hitting number 1 on the Hot 100 for two weeks and it is still selling strongly. I think if anything RHI's high sales thus far have shown that people will buy it even with a minimum of exposure, so just imagine once it starts getting some airplay. Plus, many people who might not like Adele's ballads (and thus wouldn't have bought her album but perhaps would've bought RITD which is still selling loads despite her album selling over 7m, which nixes your theory about high album sales hurting single sales) might really enjoy RHI and decide to buy only it. But like I said, I do expect overall lower sales for RHI than the rest of the singles, partly because of album sales, but also partly because it just doesn't have smash written all over to the same degree as the first three singles. I think it still has a decent shot at hitting number 1, though, especially with a televised performance. If someone else singing the song can get it as high as number 25 on the Itunes chart, imagine how high it could get if Adele herself sings it on national television.

We Are Young is shaping up to be a "Pumped Up Kicks / Gives You Hell / Hey There Delilah" type of hit. I hope radio follows soon Anyway, new B.o.B song at #4 and Somebody that I Used to Know at #9 The Wanted is #6 while One Direction is now down to #26

I think Rumour could still hit number one. I'm sure there is still a large group of people who will shy away from buying the entire album. I was almost one of them. (Still ended up getting it in its first week of release, though.) And while Rolling is still selling very well, my main point was that FUTURE singles may not sell as well. That could be contributed to many factors, but each single from 21 is already selling less that the previous one, unlike, say, the singles from Teenage Dream which performed (for the most part) very similarly in terms of big sales. That album, however, failed to produce the big sales 21 has. But, like what has been said many times, you can't underestimate Adele.

I dunno, I think Rumour Has It could perform just as well as Set Fire to the Rain.
If it does hit #1, I really hope they go for a fifth single after all.

BTW, has anyone ever done the math on some of these big artists eras combining album + track sales to a total of "track equivalent albums" (where the sale of a song is weighted as 1/10th the sale of an album). I wonder how various "eras" from Katy, Adele, Gaga, Rihanna, etc. would stack up in that regard.

It might still be, but unfortunately there's a good chance its sales will level off and start dropping long before it gets sufficient enough airplay to threaten to take the top spot. Radio seems more and more irrelevant to me these days.

Does anyone know what led to The Wanted's sudden jump into the top 5? They were down around #20 just a couple of days ago, and while their airplay has been steadily gaining it hasn't picked up such a large amount that it would lead to a sudden leap in sales. Very happy that Gotye finally got into the top ten! He was there before, but only briefly.

How interesting that RiRi's 1:18 solo version of Birthday Cake continues its surprising climb to 61 ever since the CB collabs were leaked.

One Whitney Houston track remains in the iTunes top 100- "I Will Always Love You" at No. 15.

Whitney Houston's second album is off iTunes. It was added right after the passing and now it's gone. Odd.

What's the deal with this? I can understand in 2000 when the GH album came out, and they wanted people to have some reason to go back and buy her earlier CDs to keep her catalog viable, but to remove it from iTunes is a headscratcher.

It's still available (actually it always was) on Amazon/mp3.

lmao Talk That Talk is not Top 100 yet? It was up in the mid 60s until Whitney's death, the Grammys, and Glee. It was pushed out with all of the hectic couple of weeks. Just letting everyone know: 56 Florence + The Machine - Shake It Out 0.1562 I didn't know it being used on How I Met Your Mother would make it jump so quickly! :o It wasn't even top 100 before the episode aired! 10+ million people watched it (live and tons more on DVR, online, etc), so of course it would see a boost!
