I apologized for being misinformed Im sorry. But yes some of those things do make up your character and Im certain that Im not the only who feels that way reading some of your posts. Its not an insult just an observation.

AGAIN.

The Portuguese are not hispanic. Neither are Brazilians.

Work is this year's Trap Queen, in terms of massive streams

Work is gonna be pretty equal with NO in sales for a bit, and will remain stable in streaming due to the celebrity viral video. Oh, and NO is doing awful in streams right now...

10 weeks y'all!

NO is gaining like crazy on radio, and will continue to rise on iTunes with radio support, has a video to come which will likely be huge on youtube (which will make up for her weak spotify numbers), and also Meghan is bound to promo HARD. Her team are very on point, like to a Katy Perry level.

I don't think 10 weeks for Work is locked down since we are only just entering tracking week 6 (ie. half way there).

just tracking week 5

No tomorrow will be the start of tracking week 6 for Work at #1.

oops, I saw just ending tracking week 6

I'm getting conflicting answers online. Government agencies often classify the Portuguese and Brazilians as "Hispanic", though neither country seems to care for it. They are definitely "Latino" though.

The languages are very similar, and the majority of the people in Portugal and Spain definitely come from the same origins. However, Portugal started as a nation 300 years prior to Spain. Still, given the names of so many Portuguese people, the last names are often exactly the same as Spanish last names. I'd say it's part-yes and part-no whether or not "Portuguese" are also Hispanics.

Case in point: Look at the names of the four Portuguese passengers on the Titanic. You can definitely see the names are pretty much exactly the same as Spanish names: There were four Portuguese names on the passenger manifest: José Netto Jardim, 21, Manoel Gonçalves, 38, Domingos Fernandes Coelho, 20 and José Joaquim Brito.

So far... (I'm in 2010)

Any new predictions for DW?

I say 11-14 range. Just shy of the top 10.

It will be #10 or #11. Not sure what yet.

Will update the numbers when kworb puts out his final estimates.

I really want 10 / +10 weeks at top for WORK. PLEASE GOD LET IT HAPPEN AND GIVE OUR QUEEN HER 2nd +10 WEEKS AT #1 SINGLE.

3rd 10+ weeks ? I only know We Found Love , what is the another one ?

My mistakeee. In the UK it stayed 10 weeks.

I hope she can make the top 10

wtf that GIF?

I don't know what viral video you are talking about, but those last 1 week usually. 2 at most. So it won't play a role in deciding if it will get 10 weeks or not.
