Au$tin- yes, just meant the franchise in general. That program title, by the way-it's something, eh? It's especially stupid because the second season will not revolve around a musical production of High School Musical. They're doing Beauty and the Beast.

This just makes me curious to know how singles from Disney acts would’ve faired in this streaming era. I can’t imagine that Hannah Montana, HSM, and Camp Rock wouldn’t have scored a #1 in a streaming environment.

I can’t imagine that Hannah Montana, HSM, and Camp Rock wouldn’t have scored a #1 in a streaming environment. Poor ol' Hilary Duff had neither streaming nor iTunes. By the time iTunes was a big deal audiences had moved on, and now she's stuck without a top 20 single. If you look at her album sales it's pretty clear she was a big deal for a while, but the Hot 100 peaks don't suggest the same.

Per Kworb: iTunes (#1 x 13 countries) Spotify (#1 x 25 countries + 1 for Worldwide chart) YouTube (#1 x 6 countries) Apple Music (#1 x 46 countries) How is this song #1 on Apple Music in 46 countries? because, in 46 different countries, it's getting the most streams on apple music

well what i think he's getting at is when you think of Apple Music and what dominates, "Disney" is not the first thing that comes to mind, lol.

I honestly think this is a special case. The other Disney stars would not have faired *this* well in this streaming climate.
It's totally plausible and likely a new type of sound will become the new dominant streaming genre.

There are songs that hit organically and connect with people. Whether you, the listener, care for it or not. Word of mouth is incredibly powerful these days, especially during a pandemic while folks are stuck at home and likely scrolling their phones on various apps looking for new music in a way that we haven't seen before.
To that extent, we have to remember the fanbase she has is SUPER young and using streaming in a way the super-late Gen Z (and most Millennials) aren't. A lead debut single by an artist that has barely released widespread music and has existed primarily in the Nickelodeon/Disney universe? I'm not sensing foul play here. It just makes sense.
The lyrics don't personally connect to me. As a mid 30's gay, how could I possibly relate? However, melodically and vocally she's hitting all the right marks in my book for Top 40/Pop in 2021.
We'll see what else she has to offer this year, but I think this is a solid start!

Can't nobody make it make sense to me that Pop Smoke is not a pop act. EDIT: omg I just read that the guy has passed and his songs got into the Hot 100 posthumously, now I feel bad for not even knowing who he was. RIP Pop Smoke.

This just makes me curious to know how singles from Disney acts would’ve faired in this streaming era. I can’t imagine that Hannah Montana, HSM, and Camp Rock wouldn’t have scored a #1 in a streaming environment. Looking at some of their Spotify stats, it's clear Miley would have had insane numbers as well throughout her early career. While her debut era is lacking with "See You Again" not even at 50 million yet, "7 Things" is over 70 million, "Can't Be Tamed" is near there, "The Climb" has over a whopping 300 million, and "Party in the U.S.A." takes the goddamn cake as it nears 700 million streams! "When I Look at You" also went viral on TikTok last year and is sitting with a bit under 250 million. Hilary Duff has a decent showing with "Come Clean" at 35 million and "So Yesterday" at 30 million. For songs from 2003/2004 that weren't massive hits, those are pretty good numbers! "All About You," which was released in 2014 so I would consider to be a part of the streaming era, is just a hair over "Come Clean" while "Sparks," also a streaming era release, is nearing 60 million, so even into the mid-2010s her fanbase was still decently strong for streaming, further proving the hypothesis that her Metamorphosis era singles would have streamed very, very well. Aly & AJ is a bit hard to look at. "Potential Breakup Song" is at 70 million, but it went minorly viral on TikTok last year. IIRC, it was nearing 50 million beforehand, though, so it's numbers are still pretty damn good for a 2007 song that barely scratched the top 50 here on pop. "Rush" is at 7 million. "Like Whoa" surprisingly doubles that, though, despite being the lessor hit between the two. I think their second era would have done surprisingly well in the streaming era. Demi Lovato has some decent numbers for her first two albums. "La La Land" is at 40 million, "Here We Go Again" at 25 million, as examples. Her third album has some exceptional numbers, though, where "Skyscraper" is at 165 million and "Give Your Heart a Break" at 155 million. They do have the advantage of being released right at the start of the streaming era, though. Selena Gomez's "Naturally" surprisingly has almost 70 million streams, which is even more wild considering it's always been compared to Miley's "See You Again," which was easily the bigger hit of the two, but sitting with almost half of "Naturally"'s numbers. This shows to me Selena would have been a streaming monster out of the gate too. (Which really isn't much of a surprise given her massive social media following these days and her strong streaming presence still.) Vanessa Hudgens' "Say OK" is at 30 million, which is way more than I'd expect. Her peer, Ashley Tisdale, also has 20 million for "It's Alright, It's OK." I'd suspect both of them would have had minor success in streaming given those numbers. On the flip side, you have Raven-Symoné with abysmal numbers. Her highest streaming single is "Some Call It Magic" at 2 million. All of her other singles are below 1 million. Lindsay Lohan's numbers are surprisingly low too. "Rumors" is her highest at 11 million, "Ultimate" at 10 million, and the rest below 4 million. Keke Palmer's numbers are... tragic. "Bottoms Up" is nearing 5 million, but everything else is well below 1 million. Miranda Cosgrove's numbers are middling. "Kissin U" is near 20 million, but that's about all she has to her name. Emily Osment's numbers are higher than I'd expect, but still nothing great. "Let's Be Friends" is the highest at 7 million. Looking at some of the music strictly related to the shows/films themselves, the iCarly theme has almost as many streams as "Kissin U," which is kinda hilarious. "Breaking Free" from High School Musical is at a whopping 115 million! That definitely would have been huge on streaming at the time. "This Is Me" from Camp Rock is close to that with just over 100 million. The Hannah Montana series also shows pretty strong streaming support with 75 million for "He Could Be the One," 55 million for "I'll Always Remember You," and "Ordinary Girl," "The Best of Both Worlds," and "Nobody's Perfect" all over 40 million. No doubt in my mind that those three things would have had at least been bringing in top ten hits. ("Breaking Free" actually was a top five thanks to digital sales, but streaming likely would have kept it there longer than one week.) I think the biggest takeaway from looking at this is just how massive Miley/Hannah was in her prime. Like, had Spotify been what it is now in 2009, "Party in the U.S.A." would likely be one of the most streamed songs of all time on the platform. Selena Gomez also would have had strong numbers out of the gate too. And Disney would have seen a decent amount of hits from High School Musical ("Breaking Free" even a #1 hit?!), Camp Rock, and perhaps even some minor hits from The Cheetah Girls, Lemonade Mouth, Wizards of Waverly Place, etc. It also makes me wonder how "Haters" or "Dignity" by Hilary Duff would have fared in today's climate considering this is being boosted by some Sabrina Carpenter drama apparently and both of those Duff tracks have been rumored to be about Lindsay Lohan. Then the whole Miley/Demi/Selena/Jonas Brothers saga would have been crazy to see unfold.

Then the whole Miley/Demi/Selena/Jonas Brothers saga would have been crazy to see unfold. It's hard to say because most of those songs are dated. The original audience of those series has grown up now so they're not that interested in listening to preteen Disney music other than the occasional nostalgia stream. And today's preteens would probably rather listen to something more current. Since preteens are probably the most impressionable demographic, especially back then when their online worlds were smaller, those factors matter. So in an alternate world when most preteens and teens had family accounts on streaming services in the mid to late 00s, and were not constrained by not having have much money to buy songs on iTunes, or by not having their own device to listen to music on, I think those songs would've been really big. Generally still not #1 record breaking smashes but I think there would've been a lot more top 10s. And yeah, Party in the USA would probably have 2bn+ Spotify streams. Its daily streams rival Halo and Hips Don't Lie for the title of most streamed 00s female song.

This song is not for me... I don't get the popularity around it??? Parts of it sounds like Julia Michaels?? I'm happy someones coming in to shake up the charts and I'm also happy I don't really have to hear this because I hardly listen to the radio anymore... She is probably very talented but this type of song has never been my thing.

Wouldn’t it have done that yesterday? Not saying it's not doing amazing numbers (it is). But these chart accounts on Twitter announce a new "record" every day. Tomorrow it will be the first song with a title in all lowercase from a Disney star to get more than a million streams for 6 days or something.
