Imanbekators rise up for breaking me another chad Lithuanian bass song. We must make it a big hit in the us

Maybe we should get that Rasster-XXXTentacion hybrid song on the Hot 100 first
At one point that was definitely in the running for my song of the summer...

He had his 15 mins then he went to prison. He somehow made another 15 mins by snitching, getting out and making disposable trash that if in my opinion, i would prefer his ‘before jail’ music anyday but that’s not saying much, but now it’s finally gonna be over

Wait until he starts making adult contemporary music, he’ll never leave the radio chart.

If we're talking about European bass remixes of rap songs, why didn't this get big instead of Roses?

[Deleted]

just a reminder, people call "lithuanian bass" slap house now. it's not universally known as that yet but it will be once people turn inclusive of other countries for once

That would technically be his third since Saweetie's "Tap In" remix may likely credit DaBaby/Harlow/Post. But yeah, second if based on lead artist.

Put this on the 'General Discussion' board and got nothing, so trying my luck here:

Random question: when Sam Smith's "Lay Me Down" cracked the top 10 in early 2015, does anyone who followed the charts back then remember if that had anything to do with the John Legend version he released for UK's Comic Relief? As the song (billed solely to Smith) made top 10 in the US around the same time the new version hit #1 in the UK.

"Sam Smith blasts 58-8 on the Hot 100 with "Lay Me Down." The ballad claims top Digital and Streaming Gainer honors as it soars onto Digital Songs at No. 3 with a 472 percent increase to 157,000 downloads sold, thanks in large part to John Legend's inclusion on a newly-released remix. The track also re-enters Streaming Songs at No. 9 (6.2 million, up 157 percent), while approaching Radio Songs with 19 million in audience (up 5 percent).

Smith and Legend teamed up on the song, and in a new video for it, in support of Red Nose Day, a biennial event in which British residents and celebrities wear clown noses to raise funds and awareness for those in need in the UK and throughout the world."

Yes. There was lots of controversy. Another bad remix handling by Billboard.

It surged top 10 after the John Legend remix, however John wasn't credited. I'm pretty sure that ended up just being the more popular version in general even in America too.

Yet Beyonce got a credit Perfect, and Nicki got one for Say So which were one-week events.

Beyoncé was credited for 4 weeks not 1 and John didn’t get credit because that version wasn’t more popular than the original...

The John Legend version reached #2 on iTunes that week, while the original failed to go top 40. 

The John Legend version would also outsell the original for over a month after. It was also outstreaming the original on Spotify for months.

Billboard's reasoning for not crediting John Legend was to not particularly jump to credit one-week effect remixes, which the opposite of what John Legend's remix was, and additionally that ended up being what happened with Say So/Perfect which got them both credits.

Do you have a reference for this?

Solo version of "Lay Me Down" peaked at No. 20 on US Spotify while the remix peaked at No. 27 (taken from Kworb). In the long run it appears that the remix got 19M and solo version got 16M streams, though, so you're not entirely wrong there. I also don't recall the remix getting much airplay but that's anecdotal. So I am doubtful they arbitrarily decided not to credit John Legend even though his remix brought in majority of the song's chart points.

The remix and solo version were combined on Spotify at one point, that's how the solo version "peaked higher". The remix was #2 on iTunes during March 12th, yet Kworb does not even have it listed as charting on US Spotify until the week of April 30th. From then on, the remix is charting higher every week. The original also coincidentally fell from #30 to #130 that week.

The remix was always more popular on Spotify ever since it was released, even when the two were combined, hence the remix still being higher months after release.

And I don't think Billboard ever verbatim said it, but as I said -- the remix of Lay Me Down was more popular the week it peaked. The only reason for not crediting it was they expected it to be a fluke. In the past they credited S&M Remix, Till the World Ends Remix, and they ended up being one-week flukes so they tried to steer away from crediting artists for hits that ultimately they really had no hand in overall.

Are you sure about this? Because there were 2 different solo versions of the song on Spotify to begin with (the album version + the re-recorded single version). It wouldn't surprise me if they withheld the remix from Spotify for the first two weeks just to boost the iTunes and physical sales for charity, for example. I am pretty sure that's what they did in the UK anyway but I don't have any reference for this in the US.

huh. I also checked radio and the song was #24 on CHR that week, it seems. that's not a ton of airplay, but it's a lot of chart points for the solo version. I'm still not sure about Spotify/streaming in general though. the solo version has more than 10 times the YouTube streams, for instance.

The remix was always available on Spotify from the time it dropped. There is undeniable evidence... like the tweet where they said this themself. For it to not be charting for its first two months indicates it was combined with the original. This isn't unprecedented either, Bad Guy (Bieber Remix) was also combined originally, then later it was separated. As for more proof though, the remix was listed on the April 30th chart as 're-entry', even though Lay Me Down was charting the day prior because that's when it was finally separated. 
docs.google.com/document/d/1G4VGln3jRbppaCN9yT5zf-Z46BiFW-MDfI6YDTDlXdg/

I'm not sure how you think the remix was more popular on Spotify in May/June, but it possibly wouldn't have been in March when it was brand new and also selling nearly 5x more.

The song was top 10 with relatively little airplay. The sales (main reason it was top 10) were overwhelmingly for the remix, the streams also notably increased due to the remix. 

Also as far as even YouTube goes, the remix was also outstreaming on YouTube the week it peaked.

Yeah I can see that. They tweeted it out so there's no denying that.

The rest of your point about Spotify, while I believe has some truth, is not fully confirmed. I'm just going to say that I do not see a reason why Billboard would single out John Legend for no reason if the remix actually brought in more than half of the song's chart points, when they have been giving credit to the appropriate remix artists for years & continued to do so.

This also happened with Drake's Lemon remix. 

- The remix sold the most that week.
- The remix had the most streams on Spotify (confirmable), Apple Music (confirmable), and possibly YouTube that week.

It had majority sales and streams.

But it didn't get credited. The only reason that can be reasonably chalked up is Lemon's 50 million radio audience (via Mediabase) for the original. 

However, again, Beyonce's Perfect Remix was credited months earlier despite the original having 142 million radio audience at that point, which would more than offset the 47k sales lead the remix got in points over the original, and any minimal streaming lead. 

It's not singling out when Billboard has been inconsistent with remix crediting various times.

^. I really want a big named celebrity to bring out all the times billboard has been playing with the rules and take them out tbh. We need a new chart system to take over

I’m still wondering why Drake isn’t credited for sicko mode. That’s insane.

Yeah I can see that. They tweeted it out so there's no denying that.

The rest of your point about Spotify, while I believe has some truth, is not fully confirmed. I'm just going to say that I do not see a reason why Billboard would single out John Legend for no reason if the remix actually brought in more than half of the song's chart points, when they have been giving credit to the appropriate remix artists for years & continued to do so.

This also happened with Drake's Lemon remix. 

- The remix sold the most that week.
- The remix had the most streams on Spotify (confirmable), Apple Music (confirmable), and possibly YouTube that week.

It had majority sales and streams.

But it didn't get credited. The only reason that can be reasonably chalked up is Lemon's 50 million radio audience (via Mediabase) for the original. 

However, again, Beyonce's Perfect Remix was credited months earlier despite the original having 142 million radio audience at that point, which would more than offset the 47k sales lead the remix got in points over the original, and any minimal streaming lead. 

It's not singling out when Billboard has been inconsistent with remix crediting various times. 

It had nothing to Do with inconsistency but rather less overall sales from the remix compared to the original. Post a billboard article or some reputable reference supporting your claim. If you are unable to do so, stop spewing inaccurate information.

Because Travis didn't credit him, nothing to do with Billboard lol.

Spotify US: 

the original isn't even top 200 when the song peaked on The Hot 100.

Bonus: The original peaked with 2,450,165 weekly streams in US (week 2017-11-09 - first week of the original), the Drake Remix peaked with 4,183,386 weekly streams in the US  (week 2018-04-05)

kworb's Billboard Radio Songs Estimates 2020/09/08

44(+6) Surf Mesa - ily (i love you baby) [feat. Emilee] 34.21(+1.79)

why do i feel that this would become a sleeper hit that will hit the top 40 in like november and get caught between years? the rise of this song on radio was unexpected for me imo. i thought that this song would be done by august
