All these sales were the top song of a week and they were among the top 5 for that years lowest sales in a week, its no coincidence its fact

That's not true, during this time last year Firework and grenade were selling 200k+ per week.
during this time in 2009 BR was still pulling 200k+ a week, and the week BR did less than 200k, it wasn't among the lowest weeks of 2009 and Tik Tok sold over 200k the week after that one ( the week before Christmas).
By this time in 2008 Circus and SL well selling 200k+ a week, wich was very good considering 200k- weeks were very common in that year, and the week Circus sold 153k wasn't the lowest, there were multiple weeks with less than 150k sold that year.
By this time in 2007 Low was selling 140/50k+, wich was very good as well, and the week Irreplacable sold 110k wasn't close from being the lowest one.
A song in 2011 when sales are stronger than ever selling around 150k a week, like back in 2008 when digital sales weren't as strong as now, isn't exactly good, in fact it's very bad, but i'm not worrying at all as long as the digital sales of this year are up from the last year's ones.
