The singles chart never was anything official, but the way he didn't even try this week.
I assume streaming will be next week since he counted this week sales in a 2016 countdown of pure sales? Would be unfair to have the last week as streaming after a year of pure sales estimates.

24k has sold more in the US, UK, France, Canada, Australia and NZ last week and this gave it that lead, starboy is just behind it with 321.000, the other small countries don't make such a big difference. Stop making it look like 24k magic doesn't deserve it when it's holding well in all the big countries that matter.

So you are implying they have manipulated their chart this week so Bruno could be #1? Do you even know what formula they used? Why don't you try to track chart stats and create a site and find out how many followers it gets?

The singles chart is suppose to include streaming too, not just sales.
And a song that is charting higher in 14.5 countries versus 2.5 is the bigger global hit, sorry.

No, I'm implying he does a terrible job at compiling the Singles Chart. It's always been that way though.
In 2004, he ranked "This Love" as the #1 hit of 2004, and "Yeah!" as the #2 hit of 2004 despite the chart peaks looking like this

Green = song peaked higher in country.
I don't see why anyone would take the Singles Chart seriously
