Hope Mariah doesn’t get it as it’s Ava’s only chance. How Mariah is ahead when she’s behind Ava on sales and she’s on ACR whereas Ava is ahead on sales and she’s on SCR?

Why is it Ava's only chance? :mellow: I'd say she's in prime position for next week and barring a surprise release, I can't see her missing out.

 

Also, you do realise ACR doesn't cancel out streams entirely? Mariah had over 5x as many streams as Ava on Christmas Day, and almost 4x as many on Christmas Eve...

Yep Ava is strong fave for next week. Neither Mark nor Malone are showing a strong enough case yet so it'll either be her or something out of nowhere.

Come on Mariah get that well deserved #1 24 years later!

Hope Leona can stay top 10 aswell, Brilliant achieved for her to be up there in the top 10 with all the classics!

ACR radio is 1:300 whereas SCR ratio is 1:150

Why is it Ava's only chance? Is she not the obvious choice for next week regardless or is something else out that's completely passed me by?

Post Malone had a new song out on Monday

ACR radio is 1:300 whereas SCR ratio is 1:150

Not true.

 

Ad-funded streams

1:600 SCR

1:1200 ACR

 

Premium streams

1:100 SCR

1:200 ACR

 

This doesn't cancel out streams entirely. When Mariah is SO far ahead on streams, ACR isn't enough to stop her making #1.

And it's already behind Ava on Spotify, and nowhere near on iTunes.

loads :lol:

 

loads :lol:

And hopefully some new entries such as Jax Years

C'mon Ava, fight back, Mariah can be number #1 next year.

Ava can also be #1 next week :unsure:

And hopefully some new entries such as Jax Years

 

 

Can't really tell if there will be new entries, when all the xmas tracks are pushing the current music down. The chart will settle down next week, half of the chart from last week's chart is practically outside the 40, I should imagine. :lol:

Omg Mariah *.* Keeping my fingers crossed that she's got this! :wub: Then I'll be throwing my full support behind Ava Max managing it next week. :D

Wow, Wizzard and Slade both set for their highest position since their year of release...! Maybe they're not becoming increasingly irrelevant after all (only to Spotify listeners).

 

And I'd never have expected to see Leona in the top 10 again, that's fantastic.

Omg idina to finally get another top 40 hit please!!!!! Also hope Leona stays top 10 and Kelly can get a new peak 😍

Omg I really hope the chart rules change next year regarding Xmas songs!

I know it’s not on ACR like the rest of them but how the HELL is Katy Perry at 24 :wacko:

Amazon streaming helping her out hugely in a market where the vast majority of songs surrounding her are on ACR.

My theory, beyond the fact it's on ACR, is that with it only being on Amazon it's therefore solely getting premium streams (whereas other songs will have ad-funded streams from Spotify, which count for far less than a premium stream). Also it's seemingly an indication that Amazon has a greater share of the streaming market than we realised.
