It's going to be fascinating to see how well it does (or not) now. It's a real test of how important Hot Hits really is.

Yes - though I think timing is also key, and the time to add it was a week ago. That's a long time in the music world.

It’ll jump up quite fast. This ‘real test’ doesn’t really need to be proved. Hot Hits’ importance for streaming is obvious and has been proved countless times. If you want to look at similar situations to this I’d say look at what happened with Swish Swish and On My Mind’s late editions, strangers, similarly will probably have a big climb over the next few days.

Strangers has finally been added to Hot Hits.

It's about time, Drake got up a bit also to the top 30.

but bare in mind it's been added to the bottom of the hothits list, that makes a difference too

The nearer the top the better but any Hot Hits exposure makes a huge difference to streams.

I agree with you - and that's why I'm so angry at the whole ridiculous situation we've got to where one playlist has such a direct impact on the charts. Many other people don't agree there's a problem.

716k for Drake today!!! Say hello to the new number 1 that will stay there for a while!!!

Edit: my 45,000th post!!

REALLY loving One Bit at the moment. I'd like to see that higher.

 

Does that have any Hot Hits support?

Surprised Steel Banglez Bad isn't top 10, it's really catchy!

I've heard 'God's Plan' now and I do like it but I don't really get how it's doing so much better than 'Signs', it doesn't really seem that memorable to me yet (in fact I think I actually like 'Diplomatic Immunity' more, they're both good tho).

196. H "Two" O - What's It Gonna Be

Woo for M.O being featured in the Top 10 on NMF. I really think the song could be a hit, it's very Spotify urban friendly.

Drake is a force.

chainsmokers has been added to hot hits too

they really need to do a serious reshuffling, the real hot songs at the moment are all too low,

and it's ridiculous to still have matt terry no matter how much they pay ;)

 

today's top hits is much more dynamic in this sense

although it also has matt terry up there which even makes less sense
