If it bombs oh well, if it does well then fantastic but everyone will still consider AP an epic fail for Gagz.

I always look at it this way: If a song is going to blow up from streaming, it will happen organically. While my personal streaming may give a song some extra juice, its not going to make a difference in the end.

Pretty sure that's not true, considering 30 second videos that include the song are counted.

Generally speaking, our Hot 100 formula targets a ratio of sales (35-45%), airplay (30-40%) and streaming (20-30%)

Billboard said nothing about having to watch the entire video.
But Youtube & VEVO both said: if the video starts = 1 view.

Edit: Well, apparently someone did.

Applesauce did 6 million streams its first big streaming week.

Considering this is a bigger release (as far as MV's, not the whole single lol) and Dope did 8 mil with that forced ad, I'd say 7-9 million from Monday thru Sunday isn't unreasonable for G.A.Y., and more could be in order if it's good enough or gets enough press!

Based on that formula, I certainly hope Happy dies soon or G.U.Y. has zero chance

That may apply to ads only tho, given the question, but it could apply to regular vids.

The formula has been a mess since the initiation of streaming. "generally speaking" basically means they can make the formula whatever they want to influence the chart.

And I really don't think that "must be played all the way through" thing is through. BB has no way of getting that data in time for their weekly chart, nor is it possible to tell the difference between someone watching 76-100% of the video (YT simply cannot measure that).

wait

Happy is HUGE on radio

but the sales are slowly going down.
And I don't know about its streaming

MysticNight

If it's the whole video that's a big

... even good videos I usually don't watch the last few seconds

Only Saturday night and all of Sunday will count for her first week, so barring a miracle, we need to bank on week 2 getting sufficient streams.

I wouldn't expect her to make a charge at #1 unless she does insane Miley-level YT numbers. #2 is the limit on this and that's with GREAT response.

And remember : only US views will be counted for the hot 100 not international.

It's breaking Blurred Line's record tomorrow

And it's still 50% above #2 on iTunes

And I think it's doing well streaming

Anyway, I'm all here for G.U.Y. breaking records

I agree. No one can know if you watch the video entirely or not.
and again, YT & Vevo both said if you play a video and refreshes the page 2 secs later, it will still count as one view, even if you've watched 2 sec.

Well. #1 for G.U.Y seems a little bit too much.

Let's all hope for a new Top 10 single. Then we'll see. It depends if radio plays it or not
