I'm so happy Timber has a chance to hit #1 on Billboard! ^-^ She really deserves it, even though I would have preferred if Die Young got the #1 spot.
I'm happy for Pitbull too, glad he decided to share the song with her because they seem to have a really interesting connection and this turned out to be a bop
Yas, for last week her lead over Monster was quite small, but it should be much larger this week. Surprising a bit given the usual iTunes #1 post-Xmas boost, but I guess people were in the mood to party to this song on New Year's Eve more than they felt like going down like timber during Xmas?
Ke$ha and Pitbull deserve for this to go #1. Pitbull has been promoting this song like crazy and Ke$ha needs it after the Warrior Era flopped. Crossing my fingers for next week!
HOW will this NOT go to #1 next week? I mean it is on heavy rotation on radio I think, and the digital sales are great! Please, just gett "Monster" off the #1. I am not here for that underwhelming follow up from Em and @badgalriri
Spotify USA
1 Timber
3 Counting Stars
17 & 30 The Monster
Kworb estimations:
1 Timber 256k
2 Counting Stars 215k
3 Say Something 201k
4 The Monster 190k
I agree that it's gonna be a close battle for the Top 3.
The Monster will probably be ahead on streaming (This week it had 4.7 million streams) while Timber had 4.4 and Conting Stars 3.8
Counting Stars is having big updates on Radio and is making the gap between it and Timber bigger but Timber is ahead on sales and streaming and getting bigger updates that The Monster so the gap is getting smaller between Timber and The Monster
This week there was only a 6% lead of The Monster over Timber on Hot 100 so with Timber closing the airplay gap and estimated to have a smaller drop in sales (-41% while The Monster is predicted to fall 55%) in my opinion Timber has the biggest chance to go #1 right now
