Well, the song is not even top10.  The song will fall soon and won't become a hit. bookmark this.
You remind me of "Skyfall is gonna destroy everyone, coming for the #1."

Fast increase!!! This makes me more excited about Fifth Harmony debut.  |
This line, then hyping up Emblem3 right after it.
The irony doesn't get clearer.
Anyway, "Gentleman" has been gradually climbing and green consecutively for 2 straight days. You say everyone is so fast, but yet you are complaining that the song has is not even top 10! Not everything is a quick rise then fall, especially for PSY who doesn't have a solidified fanbase. Things
could go southbound, but at this point it's going to continue to get exposure and rise -- eventually go top ten, then with that immediate front page exposure to many casual consumers it'll shoot to the top and be around for quite some time. The video will only continue to get more views and positive feedback in sales.
Also I don't really remember, but I believe "Skyfall" did hit No. 1 on iTunes? So that wasn't completely wrong. If you're referring to the Hot 100, then yes many overestimated what Adele can do outside of her own studio albums. The situation for "Gentleman" is much different however, as you know, with US Youtube streaming being included. If even a 1/4 of its current views are American-based (think about where it'll be within the next 7 days), plus with now having Monday-Sunday to grow to some maximum sales potential, those believing it could shoot to No. 1 next Wednesday have good reason to believe!
Gotye hasn't even tried it yet...
her power.
