Last year, when the tracking week began on Christmas Eve, All I Want for Christmas is You was #1. With this year's equivalent tracking week beginning on Christmas Eve's...Eve, I don't see how it wouldn't easily be #1 again.

The 23rd is just Festivus.

The Hot 100 is due for another English/Spanish or all-Spanish song at #1. Bad Bunny, Karol G, Natti Natasha or Becky G please.

Moscow Mule or Titi Me Pregunto should have gone number-one during Un Verano Sin Ti album bomb week tbh.

They fucked up by promoting Moscow as the first single tbh. Titi would have done even better as the lead.

I wonder if either or both of them can pass 100 million audience. AC will be switching back to usual playlisting soon and I can see them both getting a big boost from that - particularly Taylor.

kill bill will be #2-#4 this week lol. But, next week is a solid week for it’s chances at #1 if she can maintain the streaming lead since it has like no radio. Although, end of year playlists could also increase points for unholy/anti-hero too…

I think Taylor could perhaps gain 3 million AI at AC radio. 10.2 million seems unlikely.

ALL CHRISTMAS SONGS GAINED AT LEAST 75K+ IN STREAMS

What do you guys think the chances of Brenda being #1 this week are?

Hard to see it, honestly. Mariah leads on all other platforms and Spotify makes up only about 1/4 to 1/3 of their overall streams. Mariah leads by a ton on YouTube, for instance, has consistently been several spots higher on Apple Music (where she’s been No. 1) and leads Brenda on Amazon.

I wonder if either or both of them can pass 100 million audience. AC will be switching back to usual playlisting soon and I can see them both getting a big boost from that - particularly Taylor.

I think Taylor could perhaps gain 3 million AI at AC radio. Twelve million seems unlikely.

1 1 BACKSTREET BOYS Last Christmas 797 725 72 5.003

6 5 TAYLOR SWIFT Anti-Hero 318 334 -16 2.11

The chart is misleading though. A lot of Christmas songs won't be appearing on it that are getting 10+ million audience from the format as they're gold/recurrent. This was the chart for Jan 7th last year:

1 ADELE Easy On Me 2854 1803 1051 15.909
2 DUA LIPA Levitating 2564 1627 937 12.732
3 THE WEEKND Save Your Tears 2362 1454 908 11.826
4 ED SHEERAN Bad Habits 2281 1473 808 10.883
5 THE WEEKND Blinding Lights 1794 1112 682 8.61
6 ELTON JOHN & DUA LIPA Cold Heart 1686 1051 635 7.94

So we can expect a few songs to be doing 10 million+ come the new year.

[hijakint]

[kcdawg13]

Die For You is still looking like it'll get a Top 10 peak following Christmas, however it seems Cuff It may be too late. I'm hoping it can at least one week in the Top 10.

As for newer hits, it seems like Escapism is gearing up to be a pretty big hit going into next year. While Ditto by NewJeans seems to have some hype behind it, Creepin' is gaining on radio and still has good streaming while Kill Bill is also still killing it on streaming (it just needs radio).

Yup, it's important to realize the top songs on AC right now (on the current chart, anyway) are getting played a fraction of the amount that the top currents on AC were getting played in October. And once the 26th comes (reflected in the 27th's chart), those October numbers are going to be flooding back in.

And we're officially done with Christmas songs domination starting today!!

Definitely interested to see how the shorter week affects songs for this chart week though, or if it has minimal to no impact.

I reckon this might be the best week for Christmas songs because the Christmas day streaming figures will probably be terrifyingly big and might total a few "normal" days from previous weeks.

[Darkest Hour]

5,771,662 streams for RATCT on US Spotify yesterday.

Kill Bill still had 1,592,926 streams.

There exists a possibility where RATCT goes to #1 this week.

Isn't Mariah still ahead on every other streaming platform? Wouldn't that more than make up the Spotify difference?

I'll believe when I see it, we've heard this story so many times. 

It's the first time I heard it from a chart predictor.

Last year it did get super close to Mariah (like 6 points behind which in a normal week would be considered a chart battle that could potentially go either way) one week but that seemed to fly under the radar, I didn't see much discussion about it.

"RATCT" was predicted to be a threat for #1 earlier this season:

That was the week Swift late released the group of remixes to beat those two songs out and get "A-H" that sixth week at #1.

Last year it did get super close to Mariah (like 6 points behind which in a normal week would be considered a chart battle that could potentially go either way) one week but that seemed to fly under the radar, I didn't see much discussion about it.

And yeah, "RATCT" actually tied "AIWFCIY" in pure streams the chart week prior to Christmas last year (1/1/22), so it has been close a few times.
