TMtC, I think, is done. I think the Grammys was his last shot at taking that to #1. Sugar, hmm - no, although it's progressively gaining in metrics every week. A top 3 peak is likely (a la Animals).
If that trashy Natalie La Rose song ends up going viral or something, then it could pull a Fancy by the time April comes around.

Yes, 9 weeks is a while. But when you think about it, that's just til the end of April. And we're heading into March already. I don't think anyone saw Blurred Lines running from June to September, and I'd say UF! is in the same situation thus far. And I completely forgot about Sugar.

It doesn't really have anything else to push it. Much like One More Night, the top tier would need to be a little weaker for them to have a shot.
Ellie, I don't think she's a real threat honestly. Her boost is largely because the film released, and it's expected to drop from $85 million to a possible low of $26-30 million second week. And it will just keep dropping. Unless she starts promoting like on Ellen and such to keep her sales at bay, she's going to weaken. Kworb's p/d have her barely behind Mark despite her big bump in pop bars. But that's just a guess. It's a great pop song and I'd love to see it top the chart.

Yes. Rih would be next if on Spotify. This is the type of song that appeals to Spotify demographic. You want to think they're waiting for airplay to catch up, but I doubt that.
