June 24, 201510 yr The decision for See You Again to spend 10 weeks at #1 is up there with the 2004 re-election of George Bush as one of the greatest mistakes America has made.
June 24, 201510 yr Where does the 'second amendment' and the inability to repeal an act that was brought in by paranoid Americans in the EIGHTEENTH CENTURY fit in to this list of mistakes?
June 24, 201510 yr It's some fierce competition, but it would probably be above those atrocities if we were basing this on the most damage caused to the ears.
June 24, 201510 yr Author It's p ridiculous that it's spent so long at #1 as it's such a non-event single compared to "Happy" or "Uptown Funk!", but its streaming and airplay advantage over "Bad Blood" has pretty much made it the default #1 the last few weeks.
June 24, 201510 yr Please. We made Laffy Taffy #1 in 2006 and This is Why I'm Hot #1 in 2007. We made the Black Eyed Peas sit at #1 for six straight months in 2009. We have much worse to be ashamed of (but I do hate See You Again soooo much).
June 24, 201510 yr Author In more interesting news: Billboard to Alter Chart Tracking Week for Global Release Date In response to the IFPI's global release date announcement, Billboard and Nielsen Music will adjust the tracking weeks for most Billboard charts. Concurrently, Billboard's rankings, including the Billboard 200 and Billboard Hot 100, and associated analytical stories, will shift their posting dates on Billboard.com. Starting July 10, the official street date for all new album releases will be Friday (instead of the current Tuesday) in the United States. For all sales-based charts (ranking both albums and tracks), Billboard and Nielsen will change the chart reporting period to cover the first seven days of an album's release. This will result in an adjusted sales period of Friday to Thursday, as opposed to the Monday to Sunday cycle that has been utilized since the advent of Nielsen Music's point-of-sales tracking in 1991. Streaming services will now also be tracked from Friday to Thursday for the charts that incorporate that data. (The final charts utilizing sales data from a Monday to Sunday cycle (June 29 through July 5) will post on Billboard.com on Thursday, July 9, and will be dated July 18. To account for sales in the in-between days during the transition week to a Friday to Thursday schedule, Nielsen Music will process data incorporating an 11-day cycle [Monday, June 29, through Thursday, July 9]. That 11-day period will inform the Billboard charts that will post on Billboard.com on Tuesday, July 14, and be dated July 25. The pure sales data from the 11-day stretch will be the only data stored historically when accounting for all-time sales according to Nielsen Music; thus, there will be no double-counting, per se, of sales in Nielsen Music's tracking system for this period in its archived database.) Here's a more detailed look at what elements will shift, both for industry insiders and chart-watchers worldwide alike. BILLBOARD 200 & ALL SALES, STREAMING CHARTS All surveys ranking album sales, digital song sales and streams will run on a Friday to Thursday cycle. That covers the all-format Billboard 200 and Top Albums Sales album charts, genre-based album charts, Digital Songs and genre-based download charts and Streaming Songs and genre-focused streaming surveys. BILLBOARD HOT 100 & GENRE HYBRID SONGS, AIRPLAY CHARTS All radio charts, including the all-format Radio Songs chart and genre tallies, will run on a Monday to Sunday cycle. Notably, Radio Songs, which informs the Hot 100, will synch up to that Monday to Sunday period after formerly encompassing each Wednesday to Tuesday. The Hot 100 and all other "Hot"-monikered genre songs charts (for country, R&B/Hip-Hop, R&B, Rap, rock, dance, Latin, Christian and gospel) utilizing the Hot 100's sales/streaming/airplay hybrid formula will now incorporate the following tracking schedule for their components: SALES: Friday to Thursday STREAMS: Friday to Thursday AIRPLAY: Monday to Sunday Why is airplay on its own cycle apart from sales and streaming? Monitored radio data from Nielsen Music is readily available on a real-time basis, as opposed to sales and streaming data, which filters in from numerous data providers over multiple days. So, by incorporating the latest available airplay data, the Hot 100 will remain as up-to-date as possible each week. ANNOUNCEMENTS AND TIMING OF NEW WEEKLY CHARTS What does all this mean for Billboard.com readers? The shift in the sales tracking week related to the new global release date will result in adjustments to when our charts, and charts-based editorial content, will be finalized and presented on Billboard.com. All charts will be refreshed each Tuesday morning on Billboard.com starting July 14 (as opposed to the current Thursday). As has historically been the case, Billboard's charts are post-dated to the second Saturday following online posting (now 11 days later). So, charts that go live on Tuesday, July 14, will be dated July 25.
June 24, 201510 yr Have the last six months been a continuous run of Uptown Funk and See You Again? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Billb...singles_of_2015 Pretty much.. Taylor Swift occasionally barges in with her 'righteousness'.
June 24, 201510 yr Now I love Uptown Funk, but 14 weeks is TOO MUCH. Now I understand what Americans had to deal with in 2009.
June 24, 201510 yr Four #1s in 6 months. So we're on track to tie 2005 for lowest number of #1s in one year (eight).
June 24, 201510 yr It really feels like 'See You Again' should have went like 1-1-1-1-2-4-8-15-26-x or something. I never expected such longevity for it considering how strongly it's tied into the story of Furious 7.
June 24, 201510 yr looking forward to Omi being the next US #1 in a few weeks! :D it is ridiculous how few #1s the US has had this year though, I'm glad the UK generally don't have songs at #1 for so long. I imagine Cheerleader will also spend a really long time at #1 too
June 24, 201510 yr Was hoping bad blood would sneak another week at the top :( Yay for rachel nearly top 10 :cheer:
June 24, 201510 yr Author It really feels like 'See You Again' should have went like 1-1-1-1-2-4-8-15-26-x or something. I never expected such longevity for it considering how strongly it's tied into the story of Furious 7. I thought so too, but I guess the fact that it hit #1 meant it was universal enough to transcend its tie-in status. Maybe it's spent so long at #1 as it essentially has had two lives on top. By that I mean its first few weeks at #1 were driven by the film, and now it's getting a second wind as a pop radio hit. It's still such a low-key single to spend 10 weeks on top though. It reminds me of when "One More Night" was #1 for 9 weeks (and kept "Gangnam Style" at #2). Was hoping bad blood would sneak another week at the top :( Yay for rachel nearly top 10 :cheer: If "Bad Blood" does return to #1, it'll be due to airplay, but it'll be more of a limp to the top than a triumphant return, as it's gonna be past its sales peak by that point. The window for it to go back to #1 is getting narrower and narrower though, with "Cheerleader" on its tail.
June 24, 201510 yr 'See You Again' is incredible. Easily one of my favourite songs of 2015, I'm delighted it's managed 10 weeks at number one. It should manage another week next week thankfully.
June 25, 201510 yr I thought so too, but I guess the fact that it hit #1 meant it was universal enough to transcend its tie-in status. Maybe it's spent so long at #1 as it essentially has had two lives on top. By that I mean its first few weeks at #1 were driven by the film, and now it's getting a second wind as a pop radio hit. I see this as a structural problem with the Hot 100 at the moment. Strictly sales or airplay charts likely see higher turnover at the top, but since the Hot 100 combines them, you see songs climb to the top 5 on big sales and then linger there for AGES (long after sales decline) on the strength of airplay, which can peak weeks or months after the sales peak. EDIT: I should say there are certainly exceptions. Uptown Funk had gigantic sales for the entirety of its run. There's little use in arguing that song didn't deserve a very long run at #1.

EDIT: I should say there are certainly exceptions. Uptown Funk had gigantic sales for the entirety of its run. There's little use in arguing that song didn't deserve a very long run at #1. Yeah, but that's not really a new problem with airplay though. For a chart like the Hot 100, digital sales actually provided a nice counterbalance to airplay when they first took off, esp. in '06-'07 (the turnover then!). Even in 2010-2011, you'd see decent turnover and interesting stuff would happen like the slew of one-weekers in late 2010. It was really streaming that slowed everything down, because not only did you have radio hanging on to the same ten songs, you now had actual listeners doing the same, and having both reflected on the chart. I guess as far as radio is concerned, you could point to consolidation and the fact that there's little variety in what radio stations hammer nowadays, but that's a different discussion I guess.

June 25, 201510 yr SALES: Friday to Thursday STREAMS: Friday to Thursday AIRPLAY: Monday to Sunday Why is airplay on its own cycle apart from sales and streaming? Monitored radio data from Nielsen Music is readily available on a real-time basis, as opposed to sales and streaming data, which filters in from numerous data providers over multiple days. So, by incorporating the latest available airplay data, the Hot 100 will remain as up-to-date as possible each week.I came into this article with hope that they'd finally fix the different tracking weeks with the change making it perfectly convenient to do so, but no they're still running with this ridiculous reasoning? Huge sigh. Partly since the delay in publishing the charts is the much greater threat to the Hot 100 being out-of-date anyway. Also I would have thought a 4 day week would be more logical than an 11 day one, I guess they're too afraid of low sales providing some messy curveballs. Still hoping 'Worth It' might manage top 10, but I expect its time is running out unless several of those songs that've been occupying the top 10 for ages simultaneously crash out. And well done to 'Cheerleader' for possibly being the biggest non-BEP/LMFAO dance hit in the US like, ever? It's hard to think of much competition.
June 25, 201510 yr Author "Wake Me Up!" peaked at #4, as did two David Guetta songs. And technically Calvin Harris has been #1 with "We Found Love", which is a Rihanna song, but it was also on his album with a flipped credit. And if you're counting trap, then there's "Harlem Shake", but I know that's a contentious one. "Cheerleader" is definitely the biggest of the deep house trend though. The odd thing is Billboard apparently doesn't consider "Cheerleader" a dance song? Like, it's not charting on Dance/Electronic Songs. I know the way the genre charts work now, they basically pick and choose what songs go where, but still. I thought it was because they didn't specify the Felix Jaehn remix in the chart credit, but they didn't specify the Robin Schulz remix for "Waves" either and somehow that ended up on the dance chart??
