NABT is #11 on iTunes and it would be Top 10 without The Voice song.

It peaked at #8 on the Hot 100.

It's not like it's Top 5 and it's not even Top 15 on iTunes.

The hate for JT on this forum

Right? It's up to #10 on iTunes and will very likely be #9 soon.

Why are people expecting big streaming numbers for a song without a music video? Its YouTube streaming numbers are everything but bad. It's up 9 spots to #33 on Spotify while Loyal isn't charting in the top 100. Loyal is just outside the top 10 on radio and it's #82 and #120 on iTunes (almost top 60 combined,) yet somehow Not a Bad Thing is the radio-fueled hit out of the two?

Loyal is the streaming-fueled hit.

I agree with you that Not a Bad Thing's iTunes performance is fine, but Loyal is definitely not a radio-fueled hit either. Loyal is higher on the Hot 100 than it is on the Airplay chart.

Team and Counting Stars are the airplay fueled songs in the chart atm (although they both were doing better on the other components many weeks ago, so they're fine imo, airplay is always the last to die down for big hits).

NABT is radio-fueled, Loyal is streaming-fueled.

BUT, NABT got more points from digital than radio this week.

You can't really ask too much when you have so weak sales and Airplay represents almost the same % influence on total points for Hot 100

Exactly. Not A Bad Thing was just 1k away to be Top 10 on Digital Top10 this week. The #8 rank shows exactly the popularity of the song. You can't pretend to hide the song is a hit

Well Chris' run dates back to October/November 2005; Katy's June 2008; Gaga's November 2008.

[staracademy1990]

Both songs are Top 10 hits, so why does it matter if it was fuelled by streaming, radio or digital only?
They are all components making up the charts.

Very happy for Chris getting a top 10 this era
When will your fav slay from behind bars?

Not A Bad Thing going Top 10 reminds me of when U + Ur Hand went Top 10 for Pink. It didn't feel like that strong of a hit and with two previous flops, didn't seem to really change the perception of the album being viewed as unsuccessful. This reminds me of that.

Justin's album was obviously successful. It was his second album in the year-end top 20, with the first one topping the chart. This just made it a bigger success. A sequel released 6 months after the original selling 1 million while most artists struggle going gold these days is great (just compare him to his fellow Mouseketeers -- Christina's last two albums are barely halfway to gold and her greatest hits album bombed, too, [Keeps Gettin' Better is actually a great example of a top 10 hit that doesn't change the perception of the album being viewed as unsuccessful,] while Femme Fatale failed to go platinum despite 3 top 10 hits, including a #1, and Britney Jean is also barely halfway to gold like Christina's two albums.)

20/20: 2 of 2 is among the top 15 bestselling albums released in 2013 and among the top 100 bestselling albums released this decade, nearing the top 75. Regarding P!nk, U + Ur Hand was clearly a legit hit since it ranked high on the 2007 year-end chart but hers and Justin's albums aren't comparable since his was a sequel to a 6-month-old multi-platinum record and going platinum in 2006 =/= going platinum in 2014.

Congrats Justine!
