[HolidayGuy]

In BDS airplay, "We Belong Together" topped out at around 223 million, while "Irreplaceable" topped out at around 196m.

[Enyasurvivor]

one of the good things Glee songs do on the charts is push down old songs that should have gone recurrent months ago i.e. You Belong With Me, Down, and I Gotta Feeling

No. YBWM should be there forever.

Pop Quiz: Train's "Hey, Soul Sister" tops Hot Digital Songs for the third straight week. The smash sold 204,000 copies this week, bringing its 33-week total to 2,929,000. This includes 2,242,000 copies sold in 2010, making it the year's biggest hit to date. Here's my question for you. How many copies has the group's current album, Save Me San Francisco, sold in its 22 weeks of release? I'll even make it multiple choice for you: a) 1,273,000, b) 793,000, c) 513,000, d) 230,000. Answer below.

The richly melodic "Nothin' On You" by B.O.B featuring Bruno Mars rebounds from #3 to #2 on Hot Digital Songs. This is its second week at #2. Rihanna's "Rude Boy" dips from #2 to #3. It has spent four weeks at #2 but has yet to reach the top spot. (It has, however, topped the Hot 100 for four weeks.)

Jack Johnson's "You And Your Heart" is the top new entry on Hot Digital Songs at #10. It's the lead single from Johnson's fifth studio album, To The Sea, which is due in June. Johnson is primarily an album artist. His only top 40 single on the Hot 100 thus far is "Upside Down," his song for the movie Curious George. The tune hit #38 in 2006. The song has sold well digitally (as Johnson does, in general). It has sold 1,327,000 copies.

The week's second highest new entry on Hot Digital Songs is "Winner" by Jamie Foxx featuring Justin Timberlake at #19. Timberlake is also featured on Timbaland's "Carry Out," which drops from #12 to #17.

Ludacris is the only artist with three million-selling songs so far this year. In addition to his own hit "How Low," he is featured on Justin Bieber's "Baby" and Taio Cruz's "Break Your Heart." Three artists trail Ludacris with two million-selling songs so far this year: Ke$ha ("TiK ToK" and "Blah Blah Blah"), Lady Gaga ("Bad Romance" and "Telephone") and the Black Eyed Peas ("Imma Be" and "I Gotta Feeling"). In all cases, these tallies count just the songs' sales in 2010.

Song Scorecard: Kanye West's 2007 smash "Stronger" tops the 4 million mark in paid downloads this week. Britney Spears' 2008 smash "Womanizer" tops the 3 million mark. These are the best-selling hits by both acts, though Spears' early hits pre-dated the digital era.

Rude Boy is #1 again for a fifth week

[kingofpain]

Not to mention I'm sure Rihanna sold more than 140,000 copies this week, considering her airplay nearly doubles theirs.

[Myth X]

Britney Spears' 2008 smash "Womanizer" tops the 3 million mark.

[wallace]

KELLY CLARKSON's "All I Ever Wanted" makes its debut on the Hot 100, entering the chart at #99.

Also:

ADAM LAMBERT's "Whataya Want From Me" holds at #23 on the Hot 100.

Just wow at IGF selling another 1m in this year. Truly the most impressive digital performance of a song to date.

"3" is very close to the 2 million mark, last time we got #'s it was over the 1.8 million mark, and that was about 2 months ago, so give it a few weeks and I am sure it will pass the 2 million mark!

[stooki3]

I Gotta Feeling should be almost at 6 mil now..

Wow!

With the decline in album sales and more people buying digital singles, I think in a few years we will see Diamond certified singles.

Any bets Journey's "Don't Stop Believin'" will be the first pre-2000's single to achieve Diamond status in the digital age! ;)

Namaste,

It's a throwback to the way the market was singles driven back in the 50's and 60's, before the record album became the dominant force, only this time it's happening in reverse.

^Thank you for posting :)

And yay for Usher, J-DeRu, and La Roux! And it's nice to see Kelly debuting with a fourth song from the album.

What prompted "In My Head" to be the digital gainer?

I just noticed that Christina hasn't debuted yet. Looks like a high debut for her next week.

[badrobot]

Alejandro is movin' faster than I thought it would. I'm not sure it'll be another top ten for her, but maybe. What do you guys think?

And La Roux keeps surprising me! A potential top 40 hit for her/them???

[HolidayGuy]

It Billboard did a list of top singles from 2000-2009, that peaked in those years but racked up weeks into 2010, "I Gotta Feeling" looks like it may be #1. Will it reach a 45th week?

[singingsparrow]

Jack Johnson has a new career-best Billboard Hot 100-peaking single. Congratulations on his first top twenty.
