Take a look.

Right. I just acknowledged that she's getting #2 next week and that's what I've been anticipating all along. What aren't you getting?

I really hope she gets that #1 in some weeks, she deserves it

I was [obviously] referring to the #1. She might not get it after all.

You get it now?

The girls try to break her, but they'll see...

She might get it the following week but honestly if she doesn't get it before the Grammys she and rest of our faves are done

Her only chance is next week. This week will be Adele's... And the week after next week will be Madonna's. After that, the Grammys lol

Honestly, I think Adele will be #1 this week and the next

In the moment sure. But at the end of the day a #2 peak is pretty damn impressive. Many artists can only dream of this type of success.

ETA: Especially if your an artist like Kelly who already has already collected a few number ones.

Didn't the group Vogue get many #2s without a single #1?

Sometimes the #2 peaking song is remembered more than the song that blocked it...and it usually has more lonevity

Since You Been Gone peaked at #2 and its still her most well known hit ever. #2 peak looks bad but as long as the song is memorable and was a hit then peaks mean nothing in the long run.

Creedence Clearwater.

And they are a great example of how a song can be iconic without reaching #1, Proud Mary is one example. I would mention more but I doubt many people on this board know who they are.

Christina's "beautiful" comes to mind

Kelly's AI is still less than 40 million and has only sold around 700K of the song. She still has time to go #1.

I really hope they play the commercial during the Super Bowl. That would be insane.

That could be enough to help her block Madonna from the #1 spot on the Hot 100, especially since her AI will hopefully be close to 70 million by then. I just have no idea how much Madonna will sell that week. How big was her last debut?
