July 6, 20178 yr Does the 3wk rule only apply to #1 songs?No, it applies to any track that has spent 10 weeks or more inside the top 100.
July 6, 20178 yr Feels is only going to be a hit because it's a Calvin Harris track, you could replace Katy or Pharrell with any other singers and it would make practically no difference. I agree with this, I don't think Katy Perry has made this a hit in the same way Frank Ocean made Slide one. Pharrell really adds to it though, but equally I don't think he is the critical reason to its success.
July 6, 20178 yr I don't think Katy's voice even suits 'Feels' tbh. I agree, but at the same time I can't think of who would suit it more. Maybe a Kehlani or somebody.
July 6, 20178 yr I agree, but at the same time I can't think of who would suit it more. Maybe a Kehlani or somebody. Yeah maybe Kehlani, but definitely someone with a more 'urban' sounding voice.
July 6, 20178 yr 'Feels' is a great record though. I love the bassline on it. Pharrell and Katy's voice makes the song sound great too.
July 6, 20178 yr Turns out I was wrong about ACR being applied on the chart it's having its 3rd week of declined - OCC have replied to me and confirmed it's held back til the 4th week (from the first sales flash on Saturday). Edited July 6, 20178 yr by AcerBen
July 6, 20178 yr Yeah maybe Kehlani, but definitely someone with a more 'urban' sounding voice. Tinashe would've sounded nice on Feels, and she's worked with Calvin before too. Or Kelis.
July 6, 20178 yr Tinashe would've sounded nice on Feels, and she's worked with Calvin before too. Or Kelis. Kelis would actually have been perfect for it!

It makes sense for it to apply from week 4 otherwise a track could be drifting in and out the midweeks all week on week 3.
July 7, 20178 yr Kelis would've been so good on Feels! I love Katy on t though, I think she really suits it too, even if she is trying to be Gwen Stefani.
July 7, 20178 yr Kelis would actually have been perfect for it! I agree that's a great shout! Probably suit her better than the TCTS track she was featured on recently.
