Die For You is the only debut this week, Heat Waves or Sweetest Pie is leaving

[Deleted]

^*Die For You. Also, it’s a bit weird seeing All She Wanna Do as an extra

[gemini79]

Thought Sunroof would rebound back to number 1, Heat Waves is spending it's 60th week

turns out to be "Woman" instead

[goodguy]

Ryan correctly says "Super Freaky Girl" samples "Super Freak" by Rick James. He doesn't mention that last week he said James Brown.

He also says "Stayin' Alive" spent 6 weeks at #1. Actually it was 4. We've already discussed on this board how AT40 uses revisionist history, pretending that the show used the Radio & Records chart instead of the Billboard chart in that era.

It’s because there’s an interview segment with John Legend talking about his new album; that song’s also currently on the Hot AC chart

Six weeks is correct, AT40 has established its history as R&R since 1998.

I acknowledged the revisionist history.

And before that Casey's Top 40 did the same for nine years, as did Rick Dees for a long time (though his chart citations were pretty inconsistent). It was somewhat jarring or at least confusing at first in 1989 hearing Casey Kasem cite chart data that conflicted with what he said just a year earlier.

"Heat Waves" meanwhile joins the rare 60 week club; had it never left and reentered then this would be its 80th week on, more than any song ever.

[gemini79]

Just like when Cold Heart was on the chart last year Ryan said that Sacrifice peaked at #24, it did on CT40, but on AT40 it peaked at 19

[SabrinaFan]

When introducing the breakout track "Make You Say," Ryan says Zedd and Maren Morris previously topped the charts with "Stay," when he meant "The Middle." "Stay" was Zedd's song with Alessia Cara, not Maren Morris. I wasn't aware of the other mistakes mentioned in this thread, but given that, it seems like Ryan's been making quite a bit of mistakes lately.
