Billboard Hot 100: 04/23/2016

[Dylan :)]

I like seeing predictions for top 10, even top 20. But I don't see the point in predicting a song will be at #47 or #84

It's interesting that people are so passionately predicting positions in these threads nowadays. I've been following the Hot 100 since 1994 and honestly couldn't care less which song is #5, 6 or 7 each week because it's all about the big picture. It doesn't really make a song a smaller hit if peaks at #7 instead of #6.

I know, right? It puzzles me when someone says "I don't want this song to peak at #9 because it clearly deserves to peak at #6."

That 1976 list is forgettable, outside of Queen.

[matteeeb]

Any chance "Sound Of Your Heart" debuts this week?

[Ravi]

Wow! Panda is really coming for that #1.... next week it should be #3

1. 7 Years- 110-95-18 = 36.7k
2. Work - 50-100-24 = 35.5k
3. Panda- 75-30-27 = 33.8k
4. NO - 110-85-12 = 30.7K

And the week after that, it will be in close fight for #1

1/2 7 Years - 100-100-18 = 36.1k
1/2 Panda - 80-35-28 = 35.7k

I have to ask -- why?!?!

I guess every time around this year there's a left field hip hop hit -- last year it was Trap Queen and now its Panda.

Yup....

[Zach]

It'd be a pretty refreshing change to have Panda at #1.

[MTSChart21]

I still don't get what exactly about this song is so trendy? Is it from the "panda panda panda" part? Is it from the guy in the back yelling and making gun sounds? Is it because of the catchiness? I don't get it

[85la]

So after only 9 years on here (though ironically I'm still a "new" member!) I'm finally posting my first top 10 prediction!!

(Warning: it is only based on general impressions and not a detailed points analysis, so forgive if some seem way out of place)

1. Work
2. 7 Years
3. No
4. My House
5. Pillowtalk
6. Me, Myself & I
7. Love Yourself
8. ITAPII
9. Stressed Out
10.Work From Home

I'm pretty sure is the beat and the fact that the guy sounds like Future. Also, being a Vine meme helps a lot, too.

So make your own prediction. The thing with predictions is that nobody is right when the prediction is made because it's a guess on something that hasn't happened yet. Your guess is as good as anyone else's and it's rude to tell people they're wrong when you could just as easily make your own prediction and let time dictate who's right or wrong.

All the bantering aside, let me reiterate I admitted I didn't put much thought into the prediction cuz I was too lazy to calculate the points (part of the reason I never did one before!), so it's not a very serious prediction. Geesh, didn't mean to cause any drama!...

Though in all fairness, I realize I probably should have put Panda in the top 10.

[Deleted]

so I just heard Panda in full and I really should not like it but I actually do...damn! I feel like MTSChart21 won't be too happy about that lol
I still hope it won't be #1 though if Trap Queen couldn't make it...
I might get sick of Panda soon enough though

If Panda hits the Top 3 or even #1, it would be the weirdest thing to ever happen to the Billboard Hot 100 since "Take Me to Church" peaked at #2.

It's pretty good. Just not nearly as good as Trap Queen. I still would like to see Panda hit #1, it would be quite different to actually have a song like that at #1.

I'm just wondering. Why do you post random songs? Like was there something going on that week that made them stand out above the rest of the Hot 100 songs? Just wondering, like I said.
