#12-13 combined. Video yet to come.

Radio shouldn't be a matter on charts, just like in the UK

It's still doing poorly for their standards. It's practically at the same position as it was when it came out last week. The video won't help much unless Adam plans to go nude.

Don't give him any ideas

Can't wait

Radio should absolutely be a factor.

Dozens of millions of people listen to it every day. Because of this, the most played songs on radio are naturally some of the most heard + most popular songs nationwide, which is exactly what the Hot 100 is trying to quantify.

Welp.

OMG OMG OMG!

Brand new call out scores are out and I REALLY LIKE YOU is getting extremely low scores. Only 39% positive on pop.

Well it's not hard to understand why. The song is very avant garde. It's obviously going over the GP's heads and this upsets them.

Fight Song's callout is kinda bad too. Kinda shocked, but not really.

I have to say I'm sort of confused as to how I Really Like You managed to meet the minimum familiarity threshold for callout scores while OctaHate never did. OctaHate had higher AI numbers for quite a while.

Why?
That would be amazing

IRLY is recognizable from first listen, while you can listen Octahate several times on radio and still don't recognize it.

New Callouts Summary (ONLY CURRENTS):
1. See You Again (73.9% like the song)
2. Shut Up And Dance 68.9%

AI is kind of irrelevant to pass the familiarity threshold. People don't listen to songs just on the radio. They listen to music on their phones, computers, TV, malls etc... Anywhere basically. There are tons of songs with 60%+ familiarity that get zero airplay. They do not appear on the surveys because you need to be in the top40 on pop radio to be included in pop format surveys.

I Really Like You has been quite popular on youtube and social media and has been made fun of on TV shows like Jimmy Kimmel.

Yeah I actually got to where I could tolerate Sugar (once I listened and understood the double entendre I thought it was kind of cool), but this new song really sucks, and it's performance on I-Tunes reflects that. I assume it has a radio deal, but there may be people out there that like the song. It's radio gains don't match both versions of the song being stuck in the 110s on the I-Tunes Chart though.

Edit: I did not see the version hovering around #20. My fault.
