Damn, this is early. Did a subscriber leak this or something? Billboard.com hasn't updated as far as I can see.
In any case, Gotye.  Hope it plows toward 5 million.

Seems Maroon can get #2 this week. All other in Top 5 probably will remain their positions.
And damn Gotye is huge, second 4M seller this year.

Train's "Drive By" chugs into the Billboard Hot 100's top 10 at last, while Gotye's "Somebody That I Used to Know," featuring Kimbra, spends a fifth week at No. 1.
"Drive" motors 11-10 on the Hot 100, marking the chart's longest ascent to the top 10 this year. It completes the slowest climb to the top tier since Lupe Fiasco's "The Show Goes On" reached the region in its 21st frame the week of June 4, 2011.
"Drive" marks Train's third Hot 100 top 10. The San Francisco band sent "Drops of Jupiter (Tell Me)" to No. 5 in 2001. Almost nine years later, the group returned to the top 10 with "Hey, Soul Sister," which rose to No. 3 in April 2010. With 5.9 million downloads sold, the latter song is the best-selling digital single by a rock band since Nielsen SoundScan began tracking download sales in 2003.

Now, Train is back in the top 10 after a wait of less than just two years.
"Drive" bullets at No. 13 for a second week on the Radio Songs airplay chart with 59 million all-format audience impressions (up 4%), according to Nielsen BDS; dips 11-12 on Digital Songs with 92,000 downloads sold in the May 7-13 tracking week (down 2%), according to SoundScan; and, holds at No. 13 on the On-Demand Songs chart with 508,000 on-demand streams (down 5%), according to BDS.
Gotye's "Somebody," meanwhile, remains in charge of the Hot 100 for a fifth week. It passes Bruno Mars' "Grenade" (four weeks at No. 1 in January/February 2011) and "Just the Way You Are" (four weeks, October 2010) for the longest reign by a lead solo male artist since Eminem's "Love the Way You Lie," featuring Rihanna, led for seven weeks in the summer of 2010.
"Somebody" gains on Radio Songs, where it holds at No. 2 (132 million, up 7%), while remaining atop Digital Songs (321,000, down 8%) and On-Demand Songs (1.3 million, down 8%).
Maroon 5's "Payphone," featuring Wiz Khalifa, rises 3-2 on the Hot 100 after spending its first three weeks at No. 3. The song scores top Streaming Gainer honors, pushing 4-2 on On-Demand Songs (1 million, up 19%). It remains at No. 2 on Digital Songs (293,000, up 2%), while jumping 11-10 on Radio Songs (67 million, up 16%) in just its fourth week on the list. It's the group's fastest ascent to the Radio Songs top 10 and the quickest among all acts since Katy Perry's "Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)" also needed just four frames to crack the top 10 in July 2011.

Fun.'s "We Are Young," featuring Janelle Monae, drops 2-3 after logging six weeks atop the Hot 100 in March and April, while Carly Rae Jepsen's "Call Me Maybe" stays static at No. 4 but adds the chart's top Airplay Gainer tag, thanks to an 18-12 vault on Radio Songs (61 million, up 27%). The track maintains its No. 3 rank on Digital Songs (23 million, up 12%) and slips 3-4 on On-Demand Songs, although with a 1% increase to 1 million on-demand streams.
Flo Rida's "Wild Ones," featuring Sia, rounds out the Hot 100's top five at No. 5 for a second week. The collaboration climbs 4-3 on Radio Songs (106 million, up 3%) and 9-7 on Digital Songs (150,000, up 8%), while remaining at No. 9 on On-Demand Songs (686,000, down 4%).
Closing out the Hot 100's top 10 above Train's "Drive," Nicki Minaj's No. 5-peaking "Starships" rebounds 7-6; One Direction's "What Makes You Beautiful" rises 9-7 after peaking at No. 4; the Wanted's former No. 3 hit "Glad You Came" slips 6-8; and, Justin Bieber's "Boyfriend" slides 8-9.
