Also hilarious if the headline, in 2021 mind you, is "Elton John battles Mariah Carey for Hot 100 top spot". Keep getting it, legends. Don't forget Brenda Lee! She isn't battling for #1, though, is she? I think the only place she leads "AIWFCIY" is on Spotify, and she's barely ahead there.

She's only 3 points behind Mariah (236 vs 233) based on some final predictions. We'll see. But how? I just replied in the other thread; they have "RATCT" leading in streams, but why? For the week of their predictions, "AIWFCIY" is ahead on Spotify, Amaazon, YouTube, and Apple. Where are they saying "RATCT" is getting more streams to also be ahead overall in streams? More so we saw last year that even when "AIWFCIY" fell behind "RATCT" on Spotify, it still led in overall streams and was also ahead in overall airplay and was of course #1 every week on the Holiday 100. It's going to take something else for "RATCT" to pass it.

I totally thought yβall were kidding about there being a holiday remix of Butter. Itβs literally the same recording but with added chimes and sleigh bells. Ridiculous π€£

Ridiculous π€£ They did this for Dynamite too last year. Only difference is that Dynamite hadn't gone recurrent yet when its "holiday remix" came out. I'm pretty sure Butter would have to see a truly significant gain in streaming or (much less likely) radio in order to return to the Hot 100 this week.

That actually won't be true for two more weeks...Mariah and Brenda have spent a total of 9 weeks in the top ten together over the last few holiday seasons. Mariah and Elton have spent 10 weeks in the top ten together, during the runs of "Can't Let Go"/ "Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me" in early 1992 and then "Honey"/Candle In The Wind '97" in late 1997. And if Elton's Christmas song or "Cold Heart" are in the top ten with AIWFCIY then he'll still keep ahead by one week! This is the chart trivia I've missed ... Anyway, Elton could score Top 10s in consecutive years if it comes together right: EJ/ES in 2021 and EJ/DL in 2022. Something tells me Madonna is watching these EJ developments and making plans... Cold Heart is projected to drop from #11 to #15 for the week of 12/11. it can bounce back once the Christmas songs recede, but it slipped in Spotify streams this week.

Any chance Easy on Me will stay at #1 for the week of 12/25 and 1/1 or will AIWFCIY be at the summit?

It's kinda funny how people were talking about whether juicebieber or arianakudi could top, and then it's SZA who easily crushed the field on US Spotify with a 500k lead.

Where the heck did the massive gain for Heather come from? That song hasn't charted in over a year.

So Butter is returning to number one this week? No, there is zero chance of that happening. I can guarantee you that either EOM or a Christmas song (AIWFCIY or RATCT) will be #1 on this chart.

^It all boils down to how many the BTS Army mass buy at their music store. At iTunes, it seems to have peaked at #6 earlier today and is already down to #8.

All have #1 songs/albums except SZA. Esp in the wake of Summer hitting the latter, SZA should pull great numbers if she finally drops another album.

Does Billboard have a precedent when it comes to sales pushes like these? I know they allow certain songs that pick up a ton of steam following an artistβs passing (David Bowie, Prince, DMX, etc.), and obviously all the old holiday songs, but they also donβt allow songs that already left the Hot 100 long ago but get streaming boosts from album releases (Bodak Yellow, Holy, Lonely).

If Butter re-entered at #1, would it make Billboard realise how shitty their formula is?

Even if Butter returns to #1, it wonβt erase the fact that itβs been off the chart for over 2 months and that Stay is the biggest song of 2021.

I remember seeing in either The Wall Street journal or Forbes that Billboard's parent company is weighing selling Billboard because of the publication not generating profit, so they are probably trying to pander to stan Twitter now so that they have some type of reliable audience to boost its page viewership

οΌ³ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½π€ο½ο½ Thanks but that isn't really an answer, though? As in, so on what platform/s is "RATCT" making up that ground in paid streams? I assume programmed streams are Pandora or something we don't have data for, but as was said "AIWFCIY" was ahead on the main paid services last week so what are we missing?

Last year, "Dynamite" jumped 24-9 following the "holiday" remix (sales jumped 227% to 40,000). I don't know if fans were able to buy it from their website, though. I also don't see where the group is selling the remix on the website.

^Yes, they are at the "Butter" store. All versions are at 69 cents each.
