You can see some of the past Grammy bumps there too -- Cee-Lo & Dre (and did Justin Bieber perform live then?), and then Justin and the Dixie Chicks.

I remember thinking Justin Timberlake really lucked out with the timing of the Grammys and his performance -- I highly doubt that would've been a #1 otherwise.

I think Bieber's bump was due to his album being released that week.

BEYONCE - Love On Top: 39.577 (+ 1.956)


YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!

[HolidayGuy]

Codex- the airplay always comes down for acts who passed. Remember that the first couple of days following Whitney's passing was heavy play, and that's no longer included in the tally.

Glad to see "Love on Top" making nice gains.

Would be nice that the song that I actually wanted as a single in the fall end up being the biggest hit. Not sure if it can go top 15, though.

Simply incredible. With all other digital track sales combined (from 21's non-singles and her first album), she probably sold over 800,000 digital songs on top of the over 800,000 albums she sold this past week. Does anyone know what the total sales are for the three singles thus far, especially RITD? I would imagine that song will hit 7 million fairly soon.

Now that we know SFTTR sold 254,000, Katy's POM would need about 375,000 downloads to be number 1. Looks very likely!

Random, but since I have too much spare time, I'm going to test the accuracy of this site by recording the supposed sales numbers at 12 am EST every night for the rest of this week and add it up after Sunday night and then compare it to what BillBoard says on Wednesday. I'll post the results, too.

I (and some others) already did some tests on that site early last year. It definitely isn't to be relied on.

On Hot 100? It won't. Not without a phenomenal sales peak.

It's No. 65 this week.

[HolidayGuy]

Comfortable No. 1 for "Part of Me."

IWALY looks like it will be No. 3 or 4?

[badrobot]

so it looks like the top 3 will be:

1 Katy
2 Adele (SFTTR)
3 Whitney

I don't know what Whitney's airplay ended up being but it would have to be pretty substantial (about 30-35m+) to be ahead of Whitney.

[HolidayGuy]

With yesterday's update, IWALY was down to 10.6m, so, yeah, SFTTR would have a comfortable lead ahead of it.

"Stronger" would need some 280K to rank higher than IWALY, but based on the sales trends last week, I don't think it will be that high.

[Adonis the DemiGod!]

IWALY will be #2 this week it appears.

[badrobot]

So, with the limited info we have:

Katy 411 + 38 = 449
Adele (SFTTR) 254 + 155 = 409
Whitney 367 + 11 = 378
Adele (RITD) 271 + 30? = 301?
Adele (SLY) 183 + 55 = 238

[HolidayGuy]

Your math is off there, Euliss. IWALY looks to clock in at No. 3.

1. Michael Jackson — "You Are Not Alone" (September 2, 1995)

20. Lady Gaga — "Born This Way" (February 26, 2011)

I'm still not sure if I'm Your Angel is counted or not.

[Deleted]

It's not.

[HolidayGuy]

ry4n, don't even address that "I'm Your Angel" debacle.

It's nice list to see, but it was only possible, really, for 1995-on singles to accomplish it (thanks to the rule change in mid-1995).

Sidenote: Some of the recent entries- including "Part of Me"- did appear on Bubbling Under prior to debuting on the Hot 100.

[Deleted]

I'm Your Angel was ruled as a song that climbed to #1, not one that debuted at number one

[Caviar]

I'm curious to know what happened in 1995 that started the #1 debuts. ???

Sony just started to withhold releasing the commercial singles for a few weeks until the airplay got high enough. I think back then on Billboard Hot 100, you had to have a 'commercial' single to chart.

[Deleted]

Before 1995, songs were allowed to chart in the week before they became available at retail. So many songs debuted in the lower regions off airplay, then jumped into the top 5 the following week.

The rule change in 1995 made it so that songs couldn't chart until their first week of availability, which allowed many Top 10 debuts.

[HolidayGuy]

Well, most tracks in the pre- BDS/SoundScan era didn't jump to the top five in their second week. But the rules were the same- if a track was hitting retail in the week that corresponded with the Billboard chart date, it could debut on that chart's Hot 100 if it had the points. So, sometimes, sales points didn't kick in until a track's third week on the Hot 100.

The rule change required tracks to have a full week of sales to debut. Although in some cases, a track would have street-date violations causing a debut on one sales chart or another, which caused it to debut early on the Hot 100. Billboard later specified that a track could debut early only if it had street-date violations that resulted in a debut on the 75-position singles sales chart.

[damku13]

Over on the Digital Songs chart, Katy Perry's "Part of Me" makes its expected No. 1 debut, selling 411,000 downloads in its first week. It's the biggest sales week for a song since one year ago (chart dated March 5, 2011), when Lady Gaga's "Born This Way" was No. 1 with 509,000 in its first full week of release, and Cee Lo Green's "F**k You (Forget You)" was No. 2 with 412,000.

Aside from Perry, there are two more debuts in the top 10 this week. Nicki Minaj's "Starships" sails in at No. 7 with 204,000, while Chris Brown's "Turn Up the Music" motors in at No. 9 with 180,000.

For Brown, "Turn" marks his best debut sales week for a song, and his overall best sales week since "Kiss Kiss" sold 277,000 over Christmas week of 2007.

Whitney Houston's "I Will Always Love You" climbs 3-2 (367,000; up 89%) while Adele's "Rolling in the Deep" ascends 10-3 (271,000; up 115%). Adele has two more songs in the top 10: "Set Fire to the Rain" holds at No. 4 (254,000; up 36%) while "Someone Like You" moves 9-8 (183,000; up 44%).

Kelly Clarkson's "Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You)" slips 2-5 (252,000; down 3%) and fun.'s "We Are Young" (featuring Janelle Monae) comes off its Chevy Super Bowl-ad high, falling 1-6 (244,000; down 17%). LMFAO's "Sexy and I Know It" is also moving down this week, moving 5-10 (136,000; down 20%).

Digital track sales this past week totaled 32.28 million downloads, up 12% compared to last week (28.93 million) and up 11% stacked next to the comparable week of 2011 (28.97 million). Year to date track sales are at 202.78 million, up 7% compared to the same total at this point last year (188.69 million).

[gracelessheart]

The more I learn the rules of the Hot 100 chart (both past and present) the less seriously I begin to take it.

[popstop]

I think it's safe to say Adele will have three songs in the top 10 this week.
