Also, in the recent discussion. It's hard to get to #1 right now because CHR/Pop is in what we call a "doldrum" or a "down period." The music isn't very diverse and isn't very good. It's mostly all mid-tempo singer/rap collabs or autotune messes. When that happens radio sets itself in a slow turnover pattern. Can you (or someone else) give a specific example of a time prior to now where this was the case? I wouldn’t know because I’ve only been following these radio charts since fairly recently. The best, most recent year was probably 2016 or 2017. I was struggling to program weekly - there were too many options to have in power and heavy. There was real variety from rock, pop, adult rock, dance - slow, fast, mid. Right now radio is coding mid-tempo as high because there are no options. Many are coding electro-pop as alternative, like AJR. Although it has been nice to start hearing a few guitars on pop radio again with MGK and All Time Low.

I really like the remix, it should be enough for the song to get to #1 on the Hot 100!

The animation in that video kind of makes Ariana look like she would have went to school with Daria Morgandorfer and been best friends with Daria’s sister Quinn. It’s in the eyes, I dunno. Lol
LOVE the remix though!!!

It’s definitely a decent remix when you compare it to most of the other late-in-the-run remixes, but it’s also completely unnecessary and kind of boring, especially when you compare it to Love Me Harder. Kind of hope it gets a #2 peak just because I’m tired of these lol but the original is such a jam that I won’t be upset with a #1

Ariana is great here as the background vocalist, but fats up as lead singer on the second verse, there is a genius hidden somewhere, but mostly it is two hottest stars added together, does 1+1=2? Not here. I must say that Ariana's releases last almost 2 years are tired and the vocals are thinning out. They surely have milked all the emotions and vocals out of her for money. If she does not rest for couple of years, her career might have already gone to a deep decline.(kind of similar situation with Bieber a few years ago).

Throw it out because it seems to have addled your brain.

I feel like it was just a few years ago- 2013-2015 or so- where the #1 song broke the 300m audience threshold. It makes sense that streaming is hurting it and on top of that the pandemic is making people commute less. I just would have thought there would be a rebound now, but maybe it’s changed habits permanently?

Hmm. That’d be 4 Hot 100 #1’s (1 solo, 2 collabs, 1 feature) in 12 months for Ari right? I believe that’s a record, right?

Did a little research on Wikipedia and ok, maybe she’s probably just tying the Beatles. Hey it’s the Beatles! First for a solo artist though.

Rihanna had 4 Hot 100 #1’s in 2010: - Rude Boy - Love The Way You Lie - What’s My Name - Only Girl (In The World) If we’re talking a 1 year span, one could argue Rihanna has 5: April 24, 2010 - Rude Boy’s final week at #1 April 30, 2011 - S&M’s only week at #1 Add in We Found Love and you can get 4 Hot 100 #1’s between that and What’s My Name one year earlier. Rihanna was a Hot 100 powerhouse at that time. Katy also had 4 Hot 100 #1’s in a 12 month period with either California Gurls - E.T. or Teenage Dream - Last Friday Night.
