Fun #1 again this week. Probably a few more weeks as well. 2012 song of the year, possibly?

Did they remove Kelly's second version of "Stronger" from the chart? I don't see it anymore.

^I'm not sure what's going on with that--none of the tracks from the standard edition from her album are appearing on iTunes. It seems to be a glitch.

I predicted it in another thread, but I'm going to post it here to. "We Are Young" will be the #1 song of 2012.

I keep trying to listen to We Are Young, but that song just doesn't do anything for me. But, it's cool to have some alternative artists at the top of the charts.

For Billboard Hot 100 year-end, We Found Love is still the frontrunner to top the chart but if We Are Young will have amazing longevity it has a chance.

We Found Love has a big lead now, but is starting to fall a lot. Airplay is about to drop to #5, and its sales are very low. I believe it is in the 30s or 40s in iTunes. Was only #10 on the Hot 100 this past week, and I wouldn't be surprised to see it drop out of the top 10 (finally), this week.

I have a feeling that Somebody I Used to Know could make a challenge for the #1 song of 2012 as well.

Madonna and GGW already down to #202 on the iTunes chart.
Why is this song dropping like a stone?

Why wouldn't it? It has absolutely nothing pushing it right now and it is a fairly generic little dance track.

The WMYB single was moving up in the iTunes top 10 and they removed it! WTF? There are still 2 other charting album versions of it on the chart but they are charting much lower.
Who is making these decisions to remove certain singles from the iTunes chart?

Granted discussion here generally revolves around a select group of "it" singles and artists at the moment ( ;) )..........but someone's got to say it:
Rascal Flatts "Changed" is storming impressively out of the gate upon its digital release yesterday. It's at #20 presently: well-outpeaking the album's official lead single "Banjo" at any given point in its digital run to date.
Come to think of it, is it just me, or does it seem like country singles in general are faring better in the current chart climate compared to average? Granted Carrie Underwood's latest showing is a no-brainer, but then you also have Lee Brice (a relative newcomer) at #30, "Springsteen" at #31, "Over You" at #33, (newcomer) Kip Moore at #34, and Jason Aldean's latest "Fly Over States" rapidly ascending the chart to #44.
They appear to be drawing a larger share of the Top 100 compared to usual.
Namaste, lisping HIBISCUS

^ You're absolutely right; seeing that many non-event country singles in the top 50 is a relatively new occurrence

Have country fans been slower to download music rather than purchase it? As their fans become more comfortable doing so, maybe we'll see more songs on the iTunes list?

Have country fans been slower to download music rather than purchase it? As their fans become more comfortable doing so, maybe we'll see more songs on the iTunes list? Country listeners (overall) are more inclined to purchase physical albums rather than digital singles. I think it has as much to do with 1) the older listening demographic curve as 2) the country genre traditionally being rooted in a songwriter/storytelling tradition, which albums function as tapestries in their own right more than pop albums. At any rate, the Country listening demographic is trending more youthful, so that translates to arguably stronger inroads with the digital market. However, I will say I think the Billboard Hot 100 being updated to detect streaming, at least for now, will prove a disadvantage to the Country genre. When you leaf through, say, numerous YouTube videos of country singles...........you usually don't even see the respective single cross the three million hit mark to date. There are exceptions, of course, but it seems country music fans are not as inclined to go out of their way to sit in front of their computers and pull up YouTube (or Spotify) when they have the radio dial and physical album.

Is Def Jam not releasing the "Birthday Cake" remix on iTunes? I read that it was very against the collaboration- or is that just a rumor?

I know it's Riri, but would it sell like her others without the pop airplay? I don't think it would see "S&M"-Rih-mix-like sales. Plus, why would the label be so against an iTunes release if it sent the remix to radio- or did Riri herself send it to radio?

Ouch!
John Mayer's latest release ("Shadow Days") has taken a nasty collapse these past 36 hours alone.
It is at #93 and at this rate we shouldn't expect to see it in the Top 100 by tomorrow morning.
His ongoing throat surgery complications resulting in the cancellation of his touring plans indefinitely certainly don't bode well for "Born And Raised" either. I really feel for him at this time, in spite of many still harboring a grudge with him over his recent controversial comments in the press.

Woo 'International love' is back at the top 20 on itunes and his album up to #63 on itunes USA and without discount :o :o :'( what amazing longevity for a fourth single.18. International Love now! I guess its success on itunes represents that people still loves it.

Doesn't seem like "Fashion Star" caused some songs to move? Didn't see any post about it. They have been playing good songs, good amount of air time. Just now watching the first episode. Episode 2 airs tomorrow night.

12. Eyes Open - Taylor Swift
Her other song off the Hunger Games Soundtrack. I'm guessing this will be #1 in 3 hours?

Katy's getting knocked out of the top 10? Very surprising given this is a new single... Then again the video comes out soon so it will be back shortly.

Taylor is #8 now. Praying for a Hot 100 #1.
