Lmao

Congrats on the house. Sleepover with @BAMSKI_backshots when?

rip Fader

The song that didn't manage what janice stfu did on the global chart?

You used Billboard chart stats to say Blinding Lights was one of the biggest songs in the last 20+ years

whast changed?

They are lol, what you're saying is outdated, that's what everyone thought would happen. The opposite is true. It's why people barely care about singles now. Now is the least popular time for singles ever

It's also why old albums are doing better than ever. people are playing them front to back on repeat

Yes, I said that after Billboard declared it as such... two years after the song came out

Not two weeks after because it was #1 on one chart for that long

So a college grad that works at Billboard declared it as such, based on their own charts, and now that's gospel? Lol

No they are not

All the old albums re-peaking are the albums with huge singles on them

Where are the singles on billboard/spotify200 then?

It was based on the song's overall performance for two entire years compared to every other song's performance on those same charts

Janice hasn't even been out for one month

They can't chart because of recurrency rules

You don't know the average person if you think they're listening to albums from front to back regularly

That's just in the top 100 as well. These old albums aren't charting because most people are listening to the entire album. They're charting because most people are listening to the big singles off of them, as is the case with any popular album

Wife and I close in two weeks

I don’t get how y’all argue about these stats 24/7 365 😂😂.

I might add a few thoughts here and there but arguing stats as a normal part of your daily routine is nuts lol!

Crazy considering it went diamond so recently. Double platinum is def coming. Its selling 20k a week still. Wild.

Now building a comfortable lead on GNX. Cool to see the longevity is great with this album.

Doesn't make sense considering Spotify stats

Take Care is doing 30m-40m streams a week right now, the only song on Spotify200 is Headlines, doing 400k/day. Roughly 3m a week. Where's the other 30m+ coming from? Clearly the streams on it are spread across many songs on it, not just 2-3 even

stats are showing something very different

Single releases are the least popular I've ever seen them too
whilst album releases are arguably bigger than ever

Everyone can say we're in playlist culture but if that was true, why are all these old albums dominating streaming? true playlist culture would mean streams would be far more spread out

Take Care is doing 25M weekly streams right now

Headlines is doing 840K daily, which equates to 5.8M streams a week

The three big hits on the album (Headlines, Take Care, and Marvins Room) are collectively doing 10.6M streams a week, which is almost half of the album's total

I never said zero people are listening to the non-singles

But a vast majority of people are solely or mostly only listening to the hits on these old albums, and that's normal. Albums don't stick around on charts for 10-20+ years without at least 1-2 hit records

The stats don't show that at all

The old albums that are dominating streaming right now are the ones with huge singles on them, go look at the charts

your list is showing my point even more tho tbh, and I actually do think playlist culture is bigger outside the US. Albums are a huge thing culturally in the US compared to the rest of the world

you've got Sweater Weather at #35, whilst the album I Love You is at #117

Mr Brightside at #33, whilst the album Hot Fuss is at #123

meanwhile Take Care the album is at #91, higher than both those albums. There's not a single song from that album on the top 200

Morgan Wallen has a grand total of 0 songs on the top 200 global. Yet 3 albums on the top 200 global

Morgan is way more popular on Apple Music than Spotify, and he has a handful of songs in the Global Top 100 on AM right now

I already explained Take Care. The three hits on that album are making up 40% of its streams right now on Spotify
