Knox from the chart single "Not the 1975" will be guest hosting AT40 next weekend

[gemini44]

My Love Mine All Mine finally made BO statues

[gemini44]

Beautiful Things is Benson Boone's biggest hit

[Az Paynter]

So we're back to songs hitting breakout status when they're on the way out lol. There's a possibility Mitski will be out of the top 40 and off the chart this Sunday, so if she's gonna be hanging around as an OTV for a couple weeks after this...

Little bit surprised to see Smith as a breakout before Atarashii Gakko! since 'Hello' got the jump on 'Run' and is currently ahead. Guess that won't be for much longer once those AT40 spins come in for 'Run'. I'm guessing that will be her second AT40 entry soon.

Why is Need A Favor still here

[pop]

I’m a mess by AJR had a 9 week run not 8. It debuted on the first countdown of 2024 and this is week number 10 we are in.

[warriorsdyn98]

Thanks to dropping 6 notches in 2 weeks after dropping slowly through the first half of the 20’s positions, ‘Calm Down’ by Rema featuring Selena Gomez’s changes of tying or breaking ‘Dynamite’ by Taio Cruz is severely in jeapordy even though overall spins have not dropped significantly and in reality in the 15 to 20 position range realistically right now on the mediabase chart. Last two weeks have ruined chances of American Top 40 history

Calm Down by Rema featuring Selena Gomez officially becomes the 2nd longest run on the chart with 68 weeks passing the previous #2 position @ 67 weeks which was ‘Party Rock Anthem’ by LMFAO 13 years ago

[chickythelittlechicken]

maybe if it goes: 32-34-36-37-38-40-40

it could break it?

If anybody thought the first segment was interesting last week, the 10th segment this week did a similar thing. After song #9, a breakout and an extra, and then commercial. And song #8 began the 11th segment, obviously something that is so rare. And if that not enough, there's never really been an interesting happen to segments inside the top 10 since May 29 of 2021 when segment 11 ended with song #5 and then the penultimate segment began with song #4.

Before playing "Agora Hills" at #1, Ryan mentioned other California cities from this century, including "L.A. Love" by Fergie, "Malibu" by Miley Cyrus and "Beverly Hills" by Weezer.

[cookie111]

A few observations here.

Teddy Swims ends the streak of 3 consecutive weeks with just one male artist in the Top 10.

Get Him Back leaves the Top 10 after 13 straight weeks and spending 5 non-consecutive weeks at #8.

Stick Season has matched the peak of Noah Kahan's previous hit, Dial Drunk, and it looks like it will go higher.

Calm Down is 4 weeks away from tying the record set by Taio Cruz's Dynamite back in 2011.

So far, Ryan has not mentioned that Shinedown could be making their first appearance on the countdown since 2010 with If You Only Knew.

Yes you are right. That is a mistake on the weeks of chart life for ‘I’m a mess’. It is 9 weeks, not 8 mentioned on the beginning of this thread.

The correct spelling of the real city is Agoura Hills, CA.

You mean Shinedown with A Symptom of Being Human which already peaked on the Hot AC chart last year.

The "USA Top 40 Survey" Countdown Show

New shows added...the first ever AT40 from July 1970, the first AT40 show that aired exclusively outside the USA in July 1994 and the Debut show of Casey's Top 40 from January 1989.

Another divergence from Mediabase at the top, as according to MB Jack should have reclaimed #1 from Doja.

In the next couple of weeks “Is It Over Now” should reach the top, which would be Taylor’s 14th #1.

This chart is based on the Feb 22nd Mediabase rankings. On that date, Doja Cat was #1.

[Az Paynter]

Okay sure, but it's still a divergence because Doja only spent one week at #1 on the Mediabase chart, and yet she's gotten a second week here.

Jack returns to #1 and was at #1 on the chart dated Feb 29th. Next week's show will use the Feb 29th chart and Jack will be #1 on AT40 next weekend.

AT40 uses charts ending on Thursday, not Sunday. Thus the discrepancies.

I've posted the AT40 production schedule a few times. They pull the chart on Thursday each week. Then, the following Monday they produce the script. Ryan then records the show on Wednesday. The show is edited and finalized by Friday. Then the show is shipped for airing the following next weekend. Thus the 2 1/2 week delay.

This weekend's breakdown:
Feb 22: chart pulled
Feb 27: production begins
Feb 29: Ryan records voice
Mar 2: Show is produced
Mar 5-8: Show is prepared for airing
Mar 9: Show is added to iHeart

Hey editor, ‘Hey I’m a Mess’ by A.J.R had a nine week run on the countdown instead of eight. It debuted on January 6.

Ok i get it corrected in both the thread and spreadsheet

[warriorsdyn98]

Thank you Mitch wolf

By the way it’s hard to even think that record holder that ‘Calm Down’ by Rema featuring Selena Gomez is chasing spent 35 weeks of it’s decent from number 30 on downward. There is no way we would see this stagnant of a placement on the American Top 40 countdown these days in the last quarter 30-40 positions.

30 - 30 - 30 - 30 - 30 - 31 - 31 - 31 - 33 - 33 - 33 - 33 - 35 - 35 - 35 - 37 - 37 - 37 - 32 - 35 - 36 - 35 - 39 - 40 - 37 - 37 - 37 - 37 - 37 - 32 - 36 - 36 - 37 - 39

That is mind boggling and astonishing that we forget.

Expect the ‘drop of the week’ for Get Him Back! By Olivia Rodrigo next week

Yeah, that looks more like a chart run on Rick Dees these days...

I wondering how the Mediabase recurrents figured in the AT40 equation... if we know their formula we can easily predict what to expect 2 weeks later

Yeah.. the latter runs of "I'm Good (Blue)" and "I Like You (A Happier Song)" kinda look like that on the WT40 for sure

It appears that once a song is moved to recurrent by Mediabase, AT40 just lets it descend steadily (averaging 2-3 positions a week) until it drops off. Doesn't seem as if there's any sort of correlation to actual airplay at that point (like they tried to do for the first 10 years or so under Ryan).

Of course, every now and then they throw a curveball like Doechii falling off this week from #31.
