Waaaaa! A song can't get to #1 if no one is buying it or no one wants to hear it. Bad Romance didn't deserve any weeks at #1 because it simply did not meet the criteria for a #1 single. Meet Me Halfway clearly didn't have the appeal of the other tracks otherwise it would've done just as well. You could argue timing but a #1 single can get their regardless of timing.

Relax, man!
Are you taking your pills lately? You seem very irritated in the few threads I have read in the past days ;)
Of course I know what the Billboard punctuation system is and I think it is a fair system. I am not debating it at any point of my post.
I am just saying that IMO the people's common preferences lead less to high-quality tracks than to one-trick ponies. I am disappointed that I'mma Be could reach #1 next week whereas a much better song from the same group MMH was much less successful (of course because people didn't buy enough copies and bla, bla, bla)

I think the least quality track is I Gotta Feeling. It's the most repetitive IMO and the most successful and the one I like the least. Again Billboard is a collective of everyone's taste who purchased and those who didn't purchase. I don't think MMH would've ever reached #1 or even come close even now. People just didn't connect with it like the other BEP singles. FTR, MMH is my second favorite BEP single behind IB.

I wonder if Gaga can muster up a 3rd with Telephone after a video premiere.

I believe that in the Soundscan era, there are altogether 5 non-black artists w/3 #1's not featuring a black artist: Bryan Adams (soundtrack superstar), Celine, Madonna, Xtina, Brit. I'm hoping Brit will be the first with 4. If Telephone hits #1, Gaga would still have 1.

Who cares about such things?

ya never know - this is a special case

[Adonis the DemiGod!]

WATW may have already sold 300k.

[fridayteenage]

It's simply interesting to see just how dominant black artists are in hit songs. Also...a Britney fan finds any potential excuse to crow about how awesome she is. Which hopefully I'll be able to do when she indeed gets her 4th #1.

[Music Fan]

Well, the song needs to sell more than 55K more than Imma Be (at this time) and it will get the #1 spot... It might be possible, sadly for me :)

[Keelzit]

If it's not this week then it's definitely the next for Imma Be to reach #1. BEP dominance part 2 is about to begin.

[popstop]

[/quote]Usher doesn't really count because he needed to go back and record new tracks to get his album to 4 #1 singles from one album.[/quote]

I asked Fred Bronson about Usher's considered having four from one album when that happened, and in a nutshell, he said that Billboard does credit #1s from re-releases to the original album

As for Lady Gaga, is there one album or two? The Fame and The Fame Monster are listed separately on the Top 200.

[bibliotheque]

^ No they aren't, the EP is listed seperately but the deluxe edition w/ The Fame is collected with The Fame.

[Deleted]

Yes, not a policy I agree with but along the same lines,

Taylor Swift - holds the record for most top 40 hits from one album with 13. Something else they ackowledged a few months back

[Deleted]

The Fame & The Fame Monster are 2 albums but....

Since the Fame - deluxe includes the Fame Monster - hits that are on both albums would be listed from both albums.

Well, we are the world has today, Sunday, and Monday. That would be crazy for it to outsell Immabe in three days. I think BEP should be in the clear for #1 digital songs/tracks this week. I hope this lame version of we are the world doesn't debut at #1 i'd rather the next #1 debut be from a hit song and not just a gimmick to make money...for a good cause of course.

What? Oh, well then it might just be the #1 song this week . I guess Imma be will have to wait for another week.

it has only today and sunday

Tracking week ends tomorrow night

Given the nature of this single it was SPECULATED that it could sell 300K this weekend. Doesn't mean it will, doesn't mean it won't either

[HolidayGuy]

Any registered play for "We Are the World 25"?

Timing absolutely plays a major role in a track reaching its highest position. One week, it may rank higher than it does in another week, even though in its non-peak-rank week, it has more chart points than it does in another week. In the case of "Bad Romance," it managed to climb to a higher peak than it did when it debuted (even though it debuted with decent sales). When it had its peak amount of points, it was at #2, so that is its "deserved" peak.

[Music Fan]

^^ I know KIIS played it yesterday...

[Choco]

It has around 70 spins on Pop.

[ListenToItTwice]

"Fearless" dropping airplay already? Not good...

[Choco]

It's a country-only single (that will affect it's final peak, since pop is getting 'Today Was a Fairytale'), and the last single ('Fifteen') had a lackluster run on country... There's plenty of reasons for it to do bad already. It might miss top ten on country at the rate it's going...

8. LADY ANTEBELLUM - Need You Now = 71.779 (+ 2.064)

Just WOW at them

[HolidayGuy]

"Fifteen" reached top 10 at country, didn't it? Granted, that's not as high as tracks like "Love Story" and "you Belong With Me" reached at the format, but for a "later" single, that's not too bad.

"Need You Now" is turning into a decent multi-format hit.
