Those numbers don't even make sense, how could Heartless be below Blinding Lights 

Even if “Heartless” is above, one thing is clear: “Blinding Lights” is doing exceptionally well for not being the main single. “Heartless” is barely beating it and It has a music video and airplay to aid it. I hope his team doesn’t sleep on Blinding Lights and send it to radio soon.

"Blinding Lights" hasn't been sent to radio at all? Interesting.

They will probably as soon as heartless hits its highest peak with promotion

#3? O M F G

[Fears in the Fire]

So does this guarantee Mariah at least two weeks at #1? And can she get to the top as soon as next week (12/21)?

[kingvavis]

Imagine if AIWFC hits #1 this week somehow

[Enigma.]

Mimi and Brenda Lee top 2 on the first chart of 2020. I can live with that. Queens!

[thegreatdivine]

Welp. Guess that's it for Heartless hitting #1. It got a heavy push in this tracking week and it seems like it'll soon start to stall in performance while Blinding Lights slowly picks up. Still, two new top 10 hits to start out a new album era isn't bad at all.

Radio is tanking, streams tanked, and a bunch of songs debuted/jumped above it

Makes sense i guess. Its funny, everyone thought Truth Hurts would have alot of longevity and Senorita would freetall, but its kind of been the opposite of that

[Deleted]

yeah everyone’s over truth hurts lol

[lazer]

Is it normal for the Hot 100 to be this weak at the end of the year?

[gabe]

Juice Wrld just died, RIP. Maybe some of his songs will see boosts and re-enter

[nak]

IM SHIVERING Mariah already at #3 crying and shaking right now

I'm not a huge fan of either song, but I'm more over Senorita than Truth Hurts.

No, it varies.

If you think the tragedy here would be him going number 1, you need serious psychiatric help.

Besides the obvious.  I think that JuiceWRLD's music ranged between insufferable and laughably bad, but his death was definitely untimely and tragic.  I expected him to have many more years to refine his lyricism and grow up a bit emotionally at least.  Alas, that is not the case.
