1. Not next week, airplay and streaming are just way too high for "Lines." It sold 291K last week, so I'd predict a slight drop to 250-270K

2. It has a great chance to get in next week. The bottom tier of the current top ten is losing steam as Wake Me Up and Royals are quickly gaining.

3. SS has a chance, but it needs to do a bit better in sales and streams since Royals and WMU are beating it in both departments currently. I think SS will get its top ten shot sometime in September.

Do you have any Top 10 predictions for next week?

The on-demand streaming wasn't included last year. We Found Love is lower because its first few weeks (and I think a week at #1 too) were part of the 2011 YE chart putting it in the #60s there. It's possible that they will do the same this year, adding only the on-demand streams.

Any idea when the "Songs of the Summer" chart ends and if "Roar" has a chance at dominating that top ten position?

It ends Labor Day weekend.

I kinda think it's too late for Roar.

Seems like the radio & streaming have been nerfed a little since the streaming change if that 3% difference is anything to go by. Closest I could get it was Radio/8500, Sales/12, Streaming/600

It looks like it's on track to sell another 400k this week. Things may actually be in her favor, especially if she's got two charting weeks left.

With radio as quick as it has been, I'm holding out hope.

I can only see "Blurred Lines" holding on for 1 more week. 2 at most. The negative publicity it's getting right now (w/ the plagiarism controversy) is not helping its chances.

nothing is "nerfed" blurred lines just happens to be the biggest radio song of all time

NAWT "nerfed." What kind of World of Warcraft teas?

I thought the same

Lol I play WoW and say nerfed

The "Applause" video only has 20 million views after 4 days, half of which were in the first day. And I bet only 10-15% are from the US (judging by her streaming # this week and the views the official audio/lyric videos got last week).

She may sneak up to #5 but I doubt she'll pass Miley or Jay-Z.

I Love It is still at #51 on Billboard.com and Billboard.biz

New rule change or no one at Billboard noticed it yet?

I know, I actually expected BL to have a bigger lead (9% difference under the usual formula). That formula was extremely accurate when it was first figured out, but BB is known to make slight adjustments every now and then.

edit: I haven't even played WoW in like 5 years, the impact

Lol WHAT?!

Because the general public really cares about that

90% of the GP aren't even aware of that issue. These gorls need to stahp playing the "plagiarism" card. It ain't ****.

So next week,who will be no.1?
I see Thicke will be sold 250k next week Roar about maybe 400k but Thicke's radio and streaming are too strong for Roar it will be tough
