Billboard Hot 100: 05/14/2016

Ha ha like I said just pointing that out. Obviously 25 was never going to be bigger than 21.

Maybe not in terms of its chart run, but only because Adele being less known when 21 dropped meant people discovering her and the album over time. I truly believe 25 could easily have matched the sales of 21 with a more steady campaign, though. 25 is within 3 million copies now, no? Had her Grammys performance gone a bit better and had "WWWY" been better promoted, 25 could easily have past 9 million by now. Throw in a more normal third single trajectory that was heightened by her tour, along with the 2016 holiday season and a sweep at the 2017 Grammys, and I could easily see 25 having matches the sales of 21. Its chart run wouldn't be as impressive simply because sales were more front-loaded.

Some of that didn't happen, of course, though I could still see it getting to 10 million if "SML" does well and with the tour, holiday season, and Grammys to go. Some things just have to fall her way.

[Rose "Payola" Nylund]

Isn't 25 still selling really well? It still has awards season, the holidays and in theory additional videos and other hype-potential things coming out. It could still come pretty close to 21.

[jenglisbe]

I love that "My Boo" is getting some attention, but why is the dance attached to it called the running man? That is not the running man.

I know we've mentioned Beyonce's near twin debuts in the top 10, but it is unusual to see Prince have two songs move into the top ten in the same week. I'm trying to think of when that may have happened before - Adele after the Grammies?

They mentioned a fact like this in the Periscope yesterday. I'm not 100% sure what it exactly was, but I believe the last time Prince had two songs in the top 10 at the same time was when Purple Rain and When Doves Cry were originally in the top ten at 1984 - both in the same positions as they are now

This needs clarified. Here are the chart positions for Prince's first three singles from Purple Rain for each week in October 1984:

When Doves Cry 63-70-96-off
Let's Go Crazy 1-2-5-8
Purple Rain 28-18-9-4

It was LGC and PR at #8 and #4 for the week ending October 27, 1984.

Strange, I thought I remembered them saying both songs were in those positions, but they must have just meant Purple Rain. Thank you for the clarification :)

Ride had a HUGE week, it climbs 74-66 despite Prince and Beyonce

I imagine it will explode into the top 40 next week or the week after.

And I wouldn't think "Hello" would re-enter even if Billboard allowed it; at the rate it was dropping this might have been its last week on the Hot 100 anyway!

I would say it most probably would not have been it's last week. Last week it also got bogged down 4 spots because of the Prince debuts, so it would have been #32 last week. An then the week before that it was #27. So a 27-32-plus only one more week inside the top 50 doesn't seem likely.


As for Beyonce's positions, at first I was shocked to see so many of them so high and was like "what the f---" because I thought it was only based on sales, but then saw she also had high streaming for all those songs. I guess it must have all been from Tidal because it's not available anywhere else for streaming, no? Have they released her streaming numbers yet?

[forg]

I think Hello would have lasted at least 3-4 more weeks on the chart if there were no Prince and Beyonce domination but well it is what it is.

How come Beyoncé's Sorry is #8 on streaming? Is that from Tidal alone?
