2020 Billboard Hot 100 Year-End Predictions (Year 8)

[gikem]

Looks like Happy Anywhere might sneak onto the January-to-December 2020 YE the way it's going. Did not expect it to get as many points as it apparently did this week.

EDIT: My bad, didn’t realize that the song has in fact reached 20 weeks this week and will be gone next week regardless.

Gonna call it right now: the next number one song - and possibly the number one song of the year - will be a tribute to Kobe. Tribute songs tend to do big numbers (Candle in the Wind, I'll Be Missing You, See You Again) and when that someone is as influential as Kobe Bryant, the tribute is going to be huge - I'm predicting debut at number one and spend 12 weeks.

Welp.

Unless you consider "The Box" to be a Kobe tribute....

Given how points weakened over the course of the year, I'm a little surprised that the next 3 were Tap In, Cool Again, and Bang!, all of which peaked late in the tracking year, while songs from earlier that I was sure would be much closer like Tusa and BEST ON EARTH were a bit farther away than expected.

Also, lol @ TROLLZ somehow not even making the Top 250

They used an inverse system of points so this isn't entire accurate b

I know its a complete long shot, but let’s just say a song by The Weeknd will be #1 of YE 2020

Not such a long shot after all :)
