I think "U + Ur Hand" will enjoy two weeks at #1 beginning this Sunday, but three isn't out of the question depending on how sharply the song begins to drop in spins (I predict an average moderate to moderately fast fall between -650 and -800) This single may quite possibly only have had that one week in the Billboard Hot 100's Top Ten, but it doesn't at all diminish how amazing this single's run has been. It has to be understood that when single sales now being factored into the Hot 100 equation, immediacy tends to dominate the chart much more now, and overshadows longevity. Pink's single has been driven by the latter, and thus realistically you can only go on so long until you just can't compete with the iTunes single debuts and such. This single accomplished much more than what it ever imagined setting out to do for Pink, and even if its Hot 100 peak is lower than a handful of her other singles, it has rejuvenated both her airplay and sales here. Now she can proceed to prove more to the domestic audience why this great album makes her stand out from most other Top 40 fanfare. Sincerely, Noah Eaton Well put Noah - great post, couldnt agree more! And also, I miss David!!!!! :(

Pink took a real tumble on the Hot 100 this week. Down from #9 to #16. Maybe because her sales slipped? Her airplay seems to be doing fine.

I hope this goes #1 on Pop...but I have to say all the stations in Philly and Jersey are overplaying this to the max!! LOL...3 months ago no stations would play Pink around here and now they all will.

With all the AI charity fever and the strong releases it was expected. Many think it peaked on the cahrt but I think she will have a new peak on Hot100 the week after her AI performance! Time will tell! Still, mission accopliched on Hot100 ... Top 10 that is! Now, lets get this fuckin' smash at #1 on pop radio. Still can't fully digest that we are almost there!

We didn't forget but one of your duplicate accounts was linked to the same one as your current account, which is why. You would have been back sooner if not for that so it's your own fault. The system is automatic.
Was I one of the first people to say this will hit #1? LOL! I was joking though. It was many many pages (and maybe a topic ago). I think someone should go back thru all the pages and pick out some key comments sometime, lol.
I think what's really amazing about this song is the fact that it lost its bullet and fell back down the chart, almost off. From a purely chartwatching point-of-view, has that ever happened in the PPW era? I think 'Complicated' by Avril fell 6-8 or something without a bullet before it eventually hit #1 and then 'Bent' lost its bullet and fell 2-3 before finally moving to #1 but Pink definately takes the cake. Also, what's the record for longest time to hit #1? Pink will do it in her 24th (?) week in the Top 40? I believe 23 weeks or something may be the record from the mid 90s (1994-95?).

Baby One More Time lost its bullet in the top 10 but rebounded to hit #1.

Hi guys!!! Yesterday and today were busy-busy days, so I couldn't post or read the thread!! LOL at Mpol's and TheO's comments... LOVOLLA and GRANOLA made my day!! I'm so happy I get to know all of you guys through this endless thread!!! and from so many parts of the US and the world!!! :) Big hugs to everyone, and please don't be away for too long!!! And HAHAHAHAAAA to all those who even thought of PAYOLA!! Sorry to say this, but I think it's the most ridiculous comment for a song that has struggled that much!!! And, yes, she's been in the Top10 of iTunes SONGS list (not TRACKS) for more than one week, so that does reflect the popularity of the song!!! I'm coming back in minutes to tell you the comparisons... and get more excited!!

OK, guys, let's check what is happening throughout this week: + Sunday to Monday P!nk: UP 41 / Fergie: DOWN 14 Gym Class Heroes: DOWN 91 + Monday to Tuesday: Spins / AI P!nk: UP 87 / UP 0.269 Fergie: DOWN 53 / UP 0.070 Gym Class Heroes: DOWN 124 / DOWN 1.205 + Tuesday to Wednesday: P!nk: UP 122 :o / UP 0.394 Fergie: DOWN 45 / UP 0.312 >:( Gym Class Heroes: DOWN 117 / DOWN 0.945 Current spins/AI: 1 GYM CLASS HEROES Cupid's Chokehold 8499 54.559 2 FERGIE Glamorous 8278 48.712 3 PINK U + Ur Hand 7959 46.259 WOOWWWW!!!!! :o Great couple of days: - U+UH's Daily Spins are UPPP!!!! that gives great expectations!!! - Cupid's Daily Spins Keep at the same pace!! around 100 !!! - And Glam Fergie has increased her fall, to around 50 daily!!! OK, let's be conservative and say P!nk has 80 daily spins increase the following days, Fergie falls 40 and GCH 100. With these assumptions, the math results gives the following news on Saturday: The Hand 8199 Cupid 8199 Glammie 8158 In Summary.... PINK COULD BE #1 AS SOON AS SATURDAY!!!!!Be ready to PARTY guys!!!!! Anyone running naked ???!!! I'm IN!! ;) ;)
