Is Unforgettable not on ACR yet?

no.

 

I also forgot to add Attention by Charlie Puth to the above list, as that seems to be dropping a fair bit this week.

July 21st 2017

 

01 - 02 Luis Fonsi feat Justin Bieber and Daddy Yankee - Despacito

13 - 22 Charlie Puth - Attention

17 - 39 Jason Derulo - Swalla

31 - 55 Cheat Codes feat Demi Lovato - No Promises

32 - 54 Martin Jensen - Solo Dance

 

 

 

What songs look like they'll be on ACR this week, then?

I think French Montana has had 3 weeks of decreasing - however this may have been less than the market decrease (or whatever it's called)?

Next week's possible ACR conversions

 

3) French Montana - Unforgettable

6) Liam Payne feat Quavo - Strip That Down

'Unforgettable' is safe for now, a pink fluffy bird told me.

 

These songs are in danger of moving to ACR next week, but I can't be 100% sure of anything until the next mids come in.

 

5) Jonas Blue feat. William Singe - Mama

6) Liam Payne feat. Quavo - Strip That Down

12) DJ Khaled feat. Justin Bieber - I'm the One

20) Imagine Dragons - Thunder

49) Katy Perry feat. Nicki Minaj - Swish Swish

57) Not3s - Addison Lee

71) Oasis - Wonderwall

 

perhaps we'll see some movement in the top 10 next week!!1

Imagine Dragons must've had an increase (or at least against the grain) in the past 3 weeks I'd have thought, it has been mostly on the ascendency up the chart.

 

"Swish Swish" I wonder if KP's people have asked for that to be given the special treatment, whatever they called it in the new rules.

It's been climbing due to other songs receiving ACR and falling, rather than it actually gaining in sales.

Fair point. Has it decreased dramatically in sales though? I still find the ruling a bit vague/hard to understand where it comes to when a song is exempt from being considered a 'faller in sales'.

How can Unforgettable be safe from ACR next week if these last few weeks sales suggests otherwise?

 

June 30th - 42,739

July 7th - 42,386

July 14th - 42,267

July 21st - 39,142

Its %age sales decrease has to be larger than the overall %age decrease in the market.

Cheers so it is really currently one week into the three week ACR countdown?

I believe this would be Week One, so if it keeps declining like that it'll receive ACR in 3 weeks.

And do we ever find out what the 'overall percentage decrease in the market' is? :lol: Surely some weeks it may even be a negative decrease (an increase)!

I give up with these rules. I had Unforgetable as nailed on for ACR.

They're revealed in the sales threads.

Every week - this week it was broadly flat:

 

Overall singles sales are down 0.32% week-on-week

Ah so that's what they're actually talking about. So the overall total sales from week to week. Which does mean it can go up.

 

SO! Does this mean that if a song increases in sales (from the qualifying weeks), but less than sales have gone UP week-on-week, it would add to its tally towards the ACR?

The songs affected by ACR this week were

 

Despatico, Attention, Swalla, Solo Dance, No Promises, That's What I Like

 

I may no longer be able to estimate YTD & total sales for singles, but week-to-week % changes for individual songs are an automatic calculation.

 

Songs normally drop 10% or less from week to week, but ACR ones drop 30%+, so stick out like a sore thumb. :)
