Sour Candy

YAYS It's her "most unlikely billionaire hit" I'd say. A song from Joanne DID THAT!

All the chart-wise relevant MJ tracks except Human Nature declined week-on-week on Spotify

Billie Jean will be on ACR first.

This is definitely true, but has always been a case to some extent if we look at the longest running #1s. Also, for instance Abracadabra is way too aggressive to become a big hit in a traditional way. However, I think it will be remembered very well in the long run.

I think old songs are doing well because of all age demographics streaming now (so the people under 30 are not as decisive group any more as before) but also because everything is easily available so the viral hits are always very random and case dependent. But beyond the surface there are always clear trends and now it's the music from 10s (Bieber, Pitbull, Zara Larsson etc). However, trends come and go, the next Chappell Roan, Sabrina Carpenter or Alex Warren might be waiting just around the corner. Personally, I like the idea of songs going viral because of the surprise factor. Who would've thought that Zara Larsson or Dominic Fike would get several new hits in 2026?

826,005 streams on Spotify on Monday. Very stable!

They need to pay a lot of money for each certification. Even Taylor is not doing it for her singles.

This has reached 800M on Spotify

It's easy to not watch this year, most of the songs at least in Semi 1 are beyond awful. Well Moldova are having fun on stage so there's that.

The Shadow of a Man version is SO GOOD

The gap was 25k in sales last week so BJ would need to almost double its sales.

Billie Jean is down on Spotify week-on-week for the first time since the movie release. HN, BI & DSTYGE increase a bit, BI only 12k though.

CHILLS

The difference between HN and 'Don't Stop' is still minimal.

Yea, I mean it's a TEASER :D Is there a mass psychosis going on or sth

US Album Chart 182 182 61 MAYHEM, Lady Gaga (Peak: 1)

US album chart 78 79 467 The Fame, Lady Gaga (peak: 2)

US Hot 100 80 RE 03 Runway, Lady Gaga & Doechii (Peak: 50)

It would then be the most streamed song released in 2024

People on X are fuming because the teaser might be AI. I don't understand.

Even the countdown is iconic, oh Mother!

They won't decline as fast but of course 3 weeks in decline means ACR right away and I think that will happen from next week onwards. Billie Jean was up only 18k week-on-week in Spotify streams on Sunday.

This did 760k on Spotify on Sunday - pretty good update for a Sunday - which takes it over 30M streams to date.
