She's into occultism so she'd probably like this. :lol: Similar thing happened to Sam Ryder recently.

Haha. It's so true though. Even in the early 2010's there were a few studies done on illegal downloads and Drake was always the most illegally downloaded artist in them.

I noticed that Ed Sheeran has re-overtaken Harry Styles in the past few weeks in the album chart. So I'm wondering if he can overtake in time for the year-end chart. Although Harry might benefit more from Christmas sales as his album is actually from this year. Taylor Swift might be the year-end #1 by the looks of things though anyway. I'm glad Dance Monkey has dropped out. I've asked people why they like this song and the usual response is that it's apparently insanely catchy. Well, I am glad there are modern pop songs out there which people enjoy, but I genuinely never found it catchy in the slightest and never once wanted to play it for myself.

Is this some kind of joke that I'm not getting? Why would MGMT care, or have any say in, how long these threads are?

Don't the OCC credit this to Kanye West ft. Rihanna & Drake?

Personally I noticed that during Miley's comeback in 2013 (I think it was) I started hearing Party In The USA again sometimes, after not hearing it at all for years. So that might be a factor.

It may partially be because it was a hit in 2016 where streaming was a LOT higher than 2015, so it has an advantage over all the 2015 songs which were actually hits in 2015 and had died down by the time streaming figures got even larger.

Yeah. Everybody hates it. :lol: It's like a typical AATW dance cover that they make for their compilation albums.

You're overall point still stands, but some Halloween songs like Thriller surely get decent streams everyday, since it's a general classic song anyway, so that might help it stay in the top 100. It's not like Christmas songs where it's uncomfortable to listen to them when it's not Christmas.

Does it sample Tulisa's version of Sweet Like Chocolate or the original?

According to this there is an official radio edit now: https://twitter.com/adeledailynet/status/1585383424532979712 Who knows if it will ever be available to the public though.

I don't know why people called it the impact date (because normally you'd want the song to "impact" before then). But it would be single release week, so whatever week it is that physicals and digital EPs get released. In the download era lots of post-album singles would peak on that week. But I guess if there aren't going to be any physicals or remix EPs, etc, which seems quite common now, then there won't be any date. I can't find anything for I Drink Wine online. For Music For a Sushi Restraurant it seems to be 2nd December.

99% chance yes, but there's always a miniscule chance they might get complaints of people saying they hate the song or they've heard it too much already.

She should've released I Drink Wine in the summer imo. Send My Love was a fun summer hit. And she could have been releasing her 4th single now, I think she has lots of good songs on her album, especially cut down for radio edits.

Well on the streaming playlists they resort to putting things like Man-eater, Toxic and Disturbia on the Halloween playlists probably for that reason. :lol:

Wow. It looks like it might be. I'm a bit shocked their new songs have fallen so much already on Spotify.

Yeah. I'd love to time travel to 2006 and tell people that SOS would be her 32nd best-selling song. See how they would react. :lol:

There's also Perfect by Ed Sheeran. We all know how that went. :lol:

It depends. There's apparently like 10 million colours that humans can see. It would be an absolute nightmare to try and give everybody that much choice. Maybe when ordering an album online they could ask for that RGB hexadecimal code you can give to specify a colour, and then print it in the factory after you order. That would probably be the best way. But it may be difficult to re-create each specific colour so accurately.

I think it's probably extremely rare for someone to buy multiples of an album. But there was one time years ago where a Christina Aguilera fan bought like 100 of one of her albums, posted proof of it on the Internet and went viral obviously. :lol: So it can happen. but not much anyone can do about it.

About Umbrella, look at it this way. Don't Stop The Music and Disturbia were bigger than Needed Me, SOS was literally one of THE biggest hit songs of 2006, so obviously bigger than Love On The Brain or Bitch Better Have My Money. So it's the same with Umbrella vs. We Found Love and Love The Way You Lie. Only Girl was released between those two and was able to sell like 120,000 a week at #1. Umbrella was probably doing less than a quater of that on some of its weeks at #1. OCC should maybe try something like this. For Umbrella: (Umbrella sales in 2007 / total sales in 2007) + (Umbrella sales in 2008 / total sales in 2008) + (Umbrella sales in 2009 / total sales in 2009) + etc.... And do this for every Rihanna song and then total up the results. In fact that's probably what they should do for all their artists rankings, and their all-time charts. And even the past couple of decade-end charts had very weird results and maybe might have looked more normal if they were weighted by year.

Those album sales!?! :o Obviously I expected them to do well but that's ridiculous, it's almost like Adele and Ed Sheeran released an album in the same week. :lol: People say Arctic Monkeys have broken their streak. But I wouldn't say that for certain yet. We know they are capable of fantastic longevity. Their album can do 10,000 one week in February and be #1.

Sunset Strippers actually released a new version of Falling Stars just a few months ago! Although it's credited as Pink Panda & Sunset Strippers.

I'm sure Bruno Mars had some kind of thing that charted before his debut album. I remember this because at that time I still couldn't figure out whether Bruno Mars was the rapper or the singer on Nothin On You and was surprised that people were confident enough to buy an album from him. :lol: So maybe that's why it's not on the list.

I remember that song. And I also remember Flo Rida covered it. :lol:
