Well, it's time for another predictions of
BILLBOARD YEAR-END HOT 100 SINGLES OF 2021
Scenario 2
(November 21, 2020 - November 20, 2021)
So, this time it'll be a 53-week chart. I guess this one is actually plausible.
As usual, my lovely yet terrible point system.

There you go, folks.
Some differences between the 52-week preds and the 53-week one:
- Shivers and A-O-K made it instead of Put Your Records On and AIWFCIY. (Which is a good thing in the former, but a bad thing in the latter.)
- I Was On a Boat That Day made the 50-point barrier. (Yet another country song about having fun. Yay...)
- Easy On Me now got 42.5 (still not made the barrier, but it will next week.)
Well, see ya next week for this year's final prediction!
