I hope the Hot 100 keeps looking like this. Some real diversity. We have a poppy song possibly dethroning an R&B hit, interspersed with a 2.5 minute movie soundtrack hit, some dancey songs, alternative music, and rock.

This is how the charts should look. Not just insert-pop-female over and over.

Two songs drop out of the top 10 this week. “Clarity” by Zedd featuring Foxes drops from #8 to #12. Maroon 5’s “Love Somebody” drops from #10 to #13.

Avicii’s “Wake Me Up!” jumps from #15 to #11 in its eighth week. Digital sales rank: #7 (138K). The song spent three weeks at #1 on the U.K.’s Official Singles Chart.

“Summertime Sadness” by Lana Del Rey & Cedric Gervais jumps from #16 to #15 in its sixth week. It's likely to become Del Rey's first top 10 hit. Digital sales rank: #9 (117K).

Luke Bryan’s “That’s My Kind Of Night” is the week’s second-highest new entry at #16. Digital sales rank: #5 (164K). The song is from Bryan’s Crash My Party, which enters The Billboard 200 with sales of 528K. By reaching #16, the song ties “Drunk On You” from 2012 as Bryan’s highest-charting hit to date on the Hot 100. Also, it vaults from #35 to #1 on Hot Country Songs, bumping Florida Georgia Line’s “Cruise” out of the top spot after a record-setting 24-week run on top.

Bryan’s previous single, “Crash My Party,” jumps from #27 to #22 in its 19thweek. The song has climbed as high as #18. The song’s sales this week were held back because many fans who had previously purchased the song opted to take advantage of iTunes’ “Complete My Album” feature. Those transactions, when fans “trade up” and buy the digital album, are deducted from the song’s sales for the week.

“Cruise” has sold 5,638,000 copies. This week, it moves up to second place on Nielsen SoundScan’s running list of the best-selling country songs in its history. Lady Antebellum’s “Need You Now” is #1 (6,198,000). Taylor Swift’s “Love Story” dips to third place (5,609,000). “Cruise” also becomes the fourth song to sell 4 million copies in 2013. (On the Hot 100, the song, credited to Florida Georgia Line featuring Nelly, drops from #14 to #19 in its 46th week.)

Lorde’s “Royals” jumps from #24 to #17 in its seventh week. Digital sales rank: #10 (107K).

“Just Give Me A Reason” by P!nk featuring Nate Ruess, which drops from #22 to #28 in its 27th week, tops the 4 million mark in digital sales. It’s the third biggest seller for both acts. For P!nk, it trails “So What” (4,624,000) and “Raise Your Glass” (4,162,000). For Ruess, it trails fun.’s “We Are Young” (featuring Janelle Monae, 6,735,000) and “Some Nights” (4,826,000). (P!nk’s follow-up, “True Love” (featuring Lily Allen), jumps from #69 to #60 in its third week.)

Selena Gomez’s “Come & Get It,” which drops from #23 to #31 in its 19th week, tops the 2 million mark in digital sales. It’s her second song to reach this level, following “Love You Like A Love Song” (which she recorded with The Scene, 2,502,000).

Keith Urban lands his 15th top 40 hit on the Hot 100 as “Little Bit Of Everything” jumps from #43 to #33 in its 13th week. It’s already Urban’s highest-charting hit since “Kiss A Girl” reached #16 in June 2009, which suggests that his exposure on American Idol did him some good. He’s good on the show. He’ll be back next season…

Carrie Underwood’s “See You Again” jumps from #41 to #34 in its 16th week. This is the second time in a little more than five years that a song with that title has been a hit. Miley Cyrus took a song with the same title to #10 in May 2008…

Thomas Rhett’s “It Goes Like This” jumps from #49 to #40 in its 10th week…

Paramore’s “Still Into You” jumps from #57 to #45 in its sixth week.

Many have noted similarities between “Roar” and Sara Bareilles’ “Brave.” The comparisons have drawn attention to “Brave.” The song jumps from #66 to #46 in its 10th week, surpassing its initial peak at #61. The song sold 51K digital copies this week, up 80% from 28K last week.

“Beware” by Big Sean featuring Lil Wayne & Jhene Aiko jumps from #79 to #59 in its fourth week…

My top five prediction was perfect, Roar needs to hurry up and go number one next week tho.

There's no need to hurry. Roar will eventually get that number 1 and stay there for 6 weeks. just like Cali Gurls did

Originally posted by Lethal

Really hoping for atleast 9 weeks at number 1 tbh

Roar should be #1 next week or the week after I believe? Because her airplay should be a lot higher. But maybe not who knows.
