October 4, 20187 yr How are Thursday streams estimated? Looks like Happier would be safely #2 tomorrow, unless streams from early in the week, when I Love It was ahead of it on Spotify, are used in the estimate.
October 4, 20187 yr Yeah, the following weeks we will have battles between Little Mix, Cheryl, Zara Larsson and Ellie Goulding releases, so HH better hurry up and snatch at least 1 week in the TOP 10. What a busy year end |o| Do we have confirmed release dates or titles for the latter 3?
October 4, 20187 yr It's also only about 1 month until the John Lewis Christmas ad! I wonder who could be doing this year's song?

October 4, 20187 yr I doubt Cheryl will pose a significant threat to that battle well, i have my doubts too but we can't count her out yet. She might surprise us. Radio 1 and Capital FM seems excited for her new music tho, so they just needs to work with her streaming figures that are terrible.
October 4, 20187 yr Do we have confirmed release dates or titles for the latter 3? yes Cheryl: "Love Made Me Do It" (October 18th rumour) Ellie Goulding "Close To Me" (October 26) *confirmed by a reliable source* Zara Larsson: "Ruin My Life" (October)
October 4, 20187 yr I don't think she necessarily is guaranteed it. For instance, Radio 1 dumped her before the end of the last era and there's a likelihood that means they won't playlist her. I still think she'll have their support with the first single at least, if that bombs then they'll jump ship.
October 4, 20187 yr yes Cheryl: "Love Made Me Do It" (October 18th rumour) Ellie Goulding "Close To Me" (October 26) *confirmed by a reliable source* Zara Larsson: "Ruin My Life" (October) I haven't seen any rumored date for Cheryl yet, hope that is true. It's reported she isn't performing on X Factor until November, so I wasn't expecting anything until that performance but maybe they will release it a few weeks prior.

She liked and responded a tweet confirming an October release and since she's set to perform on X Factor live shows in november i think they will test the waters first, to see if the song can respond well the first weeks without big slots promo.

October 4, 20187 yr How are Thursday streams estimated? Looks like Happier would be safely #2 tomorrow, unless streams from early in the week, when I Love It was ahead of it on Spotify, are used in the estimate. I don't think they've ever given much detail about exactly how they estimate the numbers. However, we do know (or, at least, we think we know) that it isn't as simple as taking the six-day figure, dividing it by six and adding that to the total. We believe they take into account the trend throughout the week.
October 4, 20187 yr It's also only about 1 month until the John Lewis Christmas ad! I wonder who could be doing this year's song? Sir Elton has reportedly been paid £5 million for this year's song.

We believe they take into account the trend throughout the week. They use the Duckworth/Lewis calculation.
October 5, 20187 yr yes Cheryl: "Love Made Me Do It" (October 18th rumour) Ellie Goulding "Close To Me" (October 26) *confirmed by a reliable source* Zara Larsson: "Ruin My Life" (October) I sent I a pm (if everything’s true), can you check it out please?
