^ Wow. that's a really drastic change....any idea what spurred this?

OMG Why did they make these changes?

-_-

HOLY **** @ the new rule!

The new sule is good or bad for Xtina?? i want to know!...

The rule definitely will not affect her in a bad way. The thing about these new rules is that they deal only with recurrent songs (old songs). So Christina could actually benefit slightly from other songs not being included that are about the go recurrent, but are still popular. But she won't be helped much at all.

Ok! Thanks!!!

Obviously the rule is made to make songs get removed earlier since songs like "Bad Romance" get stuck in the Top 20 and don't fall fast enough for the below #20 rule to be in effect. Smart since a lot of songs do free fall to #16-#20 positions and then stabilize and fall slowly.

Pop:

4 = Rude boy 9896 spins +153

Rhythmic:

1 = Rdue boy 7373 spins +40

Alicia is SMASHING Urban and Urban A/C with "Un-thinkable (I'm Ready)"

Yeah, it will definitely speed up the chart anyway. It has been kind of slow lately.

The worst day of Rude Boy !

No, RUDE BOY get back on that 1.000+ horse. Anyway, she's still doing amazing. Some stans haven't witnessed their favorite register a .970+ update in decades.

These were all once competitors for the top spot. GaGa is no longer in the picture, and Jason is too far out on airplay, so is Train, but they are growing steadily on iTunes and Airplay. The biggest threat right now is B.O.B., I wouldn't mind seeing him at #1, but RiRi needs more weeks

HASBEENS. I'm actually surprised with how well these three (Imma Be, Say Aah, and Bedrock) are holding up. Now that Taio is catching up with airplay, it's too late that digital and his airplay will never meet concurrently.

4 = RIHANNA Rude Boy 9896 +153 1110 -70 65.220 +0.671 4/75
This better be number 1

YAY!

Ugh. I'm hoping it does too. It's so close, yet so far away.
