Posted February 12, 201510 yr So it's been in the Top 40 for 33 weeks and has climbed to #7 this week so it doesn't look like it's going anywhere any time soon. Helped greatly by streaming as well as continued airplay, I'm pretty sure it will eventually break the record for number of weeks in the Top 40 (is that Engelbert or John Legend now?) but how long do you think it will hang around?
February 12, 201510 yr Author Can a mod please add a new poll question for whether you think it will break the "number of weeks in Top 40" record?
February 12, 201510 yr There's no never option? :o I'm gonna got with 2016, I doubt it'll leave the Top 40 before the new year.
February 12, 201510 yr Author There's no never option? :o I'm gonna got with 2016, I doubt it'll leave the Top 40 before the new year. Seriously you think it will get 80 odd weeks in the Top 40? :o
February 12, 201510 yr Out of the options available I went for the end of October. It's difficult to predict, though, because who knows what promotional advantages could push it back up the charts. I didn't go with August because X Factor starts then and I've no doubt that it will be prominently featured throughout the show.
February 12, 201510 yr For consecutive run wise maybe August/September with it keep re-entering a few times from X Factor and New Years Gift card effect making it's non consecutive weeks top 40 increase before leaving around Jan/Feb next year for good. Edited February 12, 201510 yr by Rob S
February 12, 201510 yr What happens if Ed Sheeran's label decide to do a re-release of the song using the Alex Adair remix later on this year? :lol:
February 12, 201510 yr Just getting it out of the top ten would suffice for the moment! :puke: I fear it'll survive well into the fall if not next year! http://www.sherv.net/cm/emoticons/guns/suicide.gif
February 12, 201510 yr I can see this being the first ever entry to complete an unbroken year in the top 40. I think it will be out in July but back when the X Factor inevitably features it.
February 12, 201510 yr end of August I think. Which will give it an insane run of +52 consecutive top 40 weeks, plus it will make at least one re-entry which will give it another few weeks to its total.
February 12, 201510 yr I voted June but I reckon it'll be longer :lol: I must be the only one who's bored of this song I'm really betting you aren't, and on top of that, very few here actually liked this to begin with :lol:
February 12, 201510 yr I'm sure there'll be a 2015 version of this (and Stay With Me & All of Me) that will become inescapable and push the aforementioned songs out. My guess is around early August time.
