I wonder what would be the song played on AT40 rewind this Halloween weekend.

[johnnywest]

One year they played “The Monster” as a Halloween extra but hopefully it will be something new this time.

[Fire]

hopefully they'll play disturbia, that's got some mad halloween vibes

[MitchWolf: Super Chart Genius]

I didn't get any extras so it will Lil late of me posting in the morning

[momzquotes]

MitchWolf: Super Chart Genius that was okay.

Anyways, if any of you listened to HI FM today, and got a couple of missing breakouts and extras, let me know: comment, reply, etc...

[MitchWolf: Super Chart Genius]

So many holes to fill when i listen the show for the second time.... Verges is missing completely, i think 2-3 more extras need to play

[momzquotes]

And how about the missing optional extras, then?

If he doesn't have them earlier, I will relay them to MitchWolf when the show plays on stations in China, Cambodia and Sri Lanka tonight.

[gemini79]

Looks like Mood will be the next #1 song

[Cerebro]

"Circles" spends a 4th week at #40. How long will it keep clinging to the chart?

And, we say goodbye to "Cardigan". Again. In what can only be described as a, truly, bizarre chart run:
30-20-18-20-19-36-off-off-22-21

[Fire]

wolves and don't start now are my favorite of these extras

[momzquotes]

I thought MitchWolf: Super Chart Genius would give me extras.

Best bets of both exiting next week along with Breaking Me and Over Now ... "Circles" is 14 weeks too far to challenge Taio Cruz for AT40 longevity... so any week now it will exit... Falling should exit regardless as well next week

[gemini79]

Circles just might hit the 60 week mark, last song to did that was Party Rock Anthem by LMFAO

[warriorsdyn98]

2 songs left from the first countdown of 2020
1 song left that debuted last decade 2019

What an impressive feat through the month of October

[warriorsdyn98]

157 straight weeks of a Post Malone appearance and a lead or featured artist on the American Top 40 countdown since October 28, 2017. Incredible run and it had a very good chance to continue had Post Malone put out new music this past summer since there was plenty of time with the pandemic cancelling tours. Can we squeeze out one more week at #40? ‘Girls Like You’ by Maroon 5 featuring Cardi B had 5 straight week at #40 before bowing out of the American Top 40 Countdown

Only way you can keep him relevant is to play the "Tap In" remix with him in it.... otherwise once "Circles" leaves, the run is over

[momzquotes]

I think next week we have a new # 1 on AT40.
