Sammi, you sneaky little..

It's a close battle between Grenade and Firework. That AC airplay is going to make all the difference.

what is the difference between sales at this point?

Posted a few pages ago:
05 - 2,023,000 - GRENADE - Bruno Mars
06 - 1,833,000 - FIREWORK - Katy Perry

so around 190K, not sure if that includes the Christmas sales. Even if Firework outsells Grenade by 5K per week, it will still take 38 weeks to do it. Airplay's going to be a huge factor.

Grenade outsold Firework? I know Firework has the bigger sales, or is this just in 2011?

it's gotta be.

Firework has more airplay and sales currently, so even if there is a small gap, it's decreasing by the day.

Meh. People said similar things about "Judas" and "Girls." Let's see what this sounds like before we say it's a contender for the title.

+1

Remember what happend with that song of Kanye & Jay-Z called H.A.M that everyone was hyping here on ATRL

The difference isn't that big on Billboard Year

Firework crossed the 4m 3 weeks before Grenade.

[jj99]

Ya remember Billboard year starts in November.

So all those extra juicy christmas sales will be counted.

[the_heat]

So far, the five biggest songs of the Billboard Year are the following:

1. Bruno Mars - Grenade
2. Katy Perry - Firework
3. Cee Lo - F*** You
4. Katy Perry - E.T.
5. Lady Gaga - Born This Way

Adele's Rolling in the Deep seems to be going for the 5th spot, though.

That's a pretty good top 5 right now.

I shouldn't have predicted ET would be the song of the year this early, Jay-Z, Kanye West, Beyonce & Bruno Mars have a song coming out very soon!

Ur shade is weak sis bye.

[pride4jc1222]

I am no Katy stan, but I think it is a forgone conclusion that Katy Perry will have the Top 2 songs on the Year End countdown. The Year End #1 is really between "Firework" and "ET".

Grenade has zero chance at being the Year End #1. Heck, Grenade might fall off the Billboard Hot 100 before JTWYA.

[FAN]

I think Ke$ha will be #9 or #10 this coming week

I like how you think.

Grenade will be in the top 5, tho.

It only includes 2011 sales.

I think "Firework" has a better chance of a higher position in the year end chart. and until now it should be #1.

[the_heat]

I think the year-end #1 has already charted, which means whatever new song that will come out from May 2011 onwards would not have any chance at snagging that year-end #1.

It will be between Firework and E.T.

Grenade will finish 3rd, not unless Cee Lo's F*** You continues to linger inside the Hot 100 Top 40.

A year-end Top 5 of Firework, Grenade, **** You, E.T. and Rolling In The Deep will be more than enough to make up for whatever ****** pop music will be put out this year.

[Rico Shameless v2]

Top 10: Prediction
1. Katy Perry - E.T.
2. Adele - Rolling In The Deep
3. Britney Spears - Till The World Ends
4. The Black Eyed Peas - Just Can't Get Enough
5. Bruno Mars - The Lazy Song
6. Rihanna - S&M
7. Ke$ha - Blow
8. Jeremih - Down On Me
9. Jennifer Lopez - On The Floor
10. Chris Brown - Look At Me Now

Based on today's radio updates & Kworb's itunes estimates.

[Tomas_Lajza]

1. Katy Perry - E.T. = 277 + 145 = 422
2. Adele - Rolling In the Deep = 285 + 80 = 365
3. Britney Spears - Till the World Ends = 245 + 82 = 324
4. The Black Eyed Peas - Just Can't Get Enough = 165 + 93 = 258
5. Bruno Mars - The Lazy Song = 184 + 55 = 239
6. Rihanna - S&M = 106 + 110 = 216
7. Ke$ha – Blow = 135 + 74 = 209
8. Jeremih & 50 Cent - Down On Me = 104 + 100 = 204
9. Jennifer Lopez - On the Floor = 128 + 73 = 201
10. Chris Brown - Look At Me Now = 121 + 77 = 198
