Very glad this is taking off!

Seriously one of his best songs in years. Wanna say his most solid R&B effort since "Confessions" era.

[freezinggame]

Hello everyone, I've been reading the Hot 100 threads for years and finally got an account. Great to see people who are as passionate about the charts as me.

Great that RHI's taking off. I like it so much better than SFTTR.

[Deleted]

Welcome

[HolidayGuy]

Underwood's track now bolded. :)

And, a second welcome to freezinggame.

[lefler]

How is Lana doing?

Carrie: greatest gainer! :)

[josh]

I can't believe Chris Brown was the greatest gainer before Carrie got bolded

Yess. Christopher and Katy.

[chartfreak]

I have a question...so will the sales of Birthday Cake, the 1:20 version, count towards the Hot 100 points for the remix of Birthday Cake? I'm assuming they are treated as separate songs?

[HolidayGuy]

^Do the remix and 1:20 version have the same melody? If so, they are combined for purposes of the Hot 100.

From Billboard:
www.billboard.com/news/ask-billboard-are-chart-rule-changes-needed-1005695952.story#/news/ask-billboard-are-chart-rule-changes-needed-1005695952.story
"Billboard will treat re-recorded songs that bear no resemblance to the original recording as a separate and distinctive song for the purposes of chart tracking. The guidelines are lyric and melody: if neither element is similar to the original recording, the two versions will not be merged."

jIt's the exact same song just with another verse tacked on.

[HolidayGuy]

Makes sense- especially as the sales no doubt contributed to its entry on the 3/10 Hot 100.

[chartfreak]

But isn't it a Duet now with Chris Brown? Interesting that such a short version of the song would be combined with the airplay, when the airplay version is nearly 2 minutes longer, no?

She don't need no permission.

[freezinggame]

What are the chances that Kelly will hit #1 in airplay?

[ListenToItTwice]

Probably fairly high, as SFTTR is going to be falling faster once RHI really takes off.

...again, and this time, with over 2 million.

[forg]

With We Are Young's airplay rising, could it have a shot at #1? I'm afraid it will be another Pumped Up Kicks scenario wherein it will be stuck at #3 for eternity

I wonder how long can Rolling in the Deep stay on the chart, it's still hovering the top 20 of iTunes

It will be close this week, but I think it will fall to Kelly. Next week will be even closer, and unless Kelly's sales rebound a bit, I think the edge will fall to Fun.

[bigb0882]

I think Kelly may squeeze it out this week unless WAY sold a really big amount, as in over 300,000. Next week I think WAY should get the edge since Kelly has been very slowly declining but she does have The Voice promo this week and it could potentially spark a little more interest in her even though she is not using the spot to promote her single. We shall see.

I agree. This week is definitely going to Kelly again because of her enormous airplay lead, but next week Kelly should begin to slow her airplay gains while fun. will continue to skyrocket in airplay and as long as sales stay relatively similar to what they are now, fun. will most likely take it next week.

I saw kworb's estimate had fun. at just over 300k, so I think WAY might sneak in there for #1. It'll probably stay there at #1 for minimum 4 weeks since sales are massive and airplay is still gaining.

I guess I just don't get what's so special about WAY. It's pulling Rolling in the Deep-like sales, but nowhere near the epic-ness of Adele. It's not even as good as "Pumped Up Kicks". Meh...I'm hoping Kelly gets 1 more week!
