"The Man" left the chart (from #33 no less!) but "The Monster" stayed. Completely unexpected.

Wow, I thought Roar had longevity, but Dark Horse is proving to be something else! Even ET or Firework didn't have the longevity Dark Horse is having (Barely out of the top 5 in it's 20th week in the top 10)
I know Dark Horse is lagging behind Happy in year to date digital sales, but in airplay, do you guys think it is leading? It didn't have a quick ascent and descent like Happy, I have a feeling it might be.

Not katy still outside the top 20. Birthday is her equivalent the #29 flop peak of the greats. Cmon katy and label do what is necessary to get this at least at uncle deshawn ali s peak. Lol at me hoping just for that peak. But what is there left to do? :/ Some have said they released that Cash remix to iTunes. Dunno if that's making any difference. She performed on a high profile awards show last weekend. The ONLY thing I can think of is discounting the single for a week or so and/or put out another version w/ another popular singer (basically pull an S&M like Rihanna/Britney did to get that extra push). Just 'something' to make this at least go top 20/15. I don't think song was a momentum killer at all since its the *4th single! 2 out of those 4 have been MEGA smashes. When you have 2 hits that are that big and two songs that peak in or around the top 20 of course many will label it a flop based on the artist and their current popularity. Same thing happened w/ every A list singer in their prime. For someone like Madonna, Mimi or Janet, top 20 would now be considered a bonafide hit lol. B-Day, even if doesn't come close to the top 10 or top 15, it's one of those songs like Unconditionally that wasn't THAT bad that it negatively affected album sales or overall momentum. Even if there's a 5th single that does worse, Katy has many, many lives left. All people will instantly think about w/ Prism were the #1 smashes Roar and DH and consider the whole era a success. Wow, it appears as though you took my sarcasm about birthday being a flop literal. Just like the #29 peak curse if it peaked outside of the top 20 it wouldn't be a flop either. To me, this is an actual good pop song so im just surprised it is slowing down so much. I think all they have left is the cash??? Remix or whatever after that its on to the next song...you make valid points though. Anyways here for #1 hit first single roaring to scare dem lessers out of #1 Underperforming thanksgiving/xmas holiday buzz promo single #1 hit 3rd single dark horse stomping the lessers including two singles of my own Underperforming Mother's Day/Memorial Day holiday buzz promo single #1 hit 5th single (legendary numbers) Underperforming Halloween holiday buzz promo single 'ghost' #1 hit 7th single (walking on your faves/this is how we slay the game...yeah i said it...i not only want tihwd as a single i have the nerve to want it at #1 too. My audacity has no bounds;)) Well isn't this odd ;) |

Thank you... This joke rose to prominence in the early 2010s when the chart methodology kept changing. Its funny humor to call there is singles with full budget videos promo and the if it happens to come out around a holiday and flop...icing on the cake. The holiday buzz promo singles are for album sales only...so they say;) lol |

Some people called "G.U.Y." a buzz single a that crashed horribly, at least "Birthday" was a top 25 single! jk I was expecting "The Man" to be decent hit but it felt down so fast on radio and sales. |

If a song gets sent for adds on pop radio, it's officially a single. People can go back and call it a "buzz" single if they want, but unless time travel becomes a reality, they can't change the fact that it was released.
I think most people who talk about singles getting demoted are just joking anyway.

I want Iggy to have her first #1 song She'll have it for sure next week. Her sales are currently increasing pretty quickly, and with multiple versions combined, she's number one on iTunes again. Also, this is going viral, and as far as I can tell, its views will count towards the Hot 100. |

At least that's the message I just got. Oh, and why is the second version of Fancy storming up iTunes chart? I'm glad it will be #1. |

Hope this can keep going strong like this for a couple more weeks. Should overtake Katy/Pharrell then. Hope they drop faster too. Really want to see Paramore in the top 5!

I thought Paramore had the best performance at the American Idol finale. Never been a fan but love Ain't It Fun.

And it has the "Buy Fancy on iTunes!" link that's not placed there by the person who posts the video. Counting against it, though, is the fact that it's under "Comedy," not "Music." I guess we'll have to see. I think the second version is rising because the TV promo is causing people who don't want "Explicit" music to download it? |

Yeah, at the rate "Ain't It Fun" is gaining on "Dark Horse," it could easily surpass it in the next 7-10 days.
