They can't not now without radio points or streaming being consistent, much less with a day lacking in purchases... and Gotye is already recuperating, the gap now with the versions combined is around 10%.
But Payphone and maroon 5 shouldn't worry: it's a guarantee future number one, that little pop gem of theirs.
It's an amazing song, people relate immediately to it, Adam is at the peak of his popularity and they are doing all the right steps in terms of promotional impact.
Unlike with MLJ, radio are eating this song up and they haven't even send it for adds (it happens next Monday).
I don't see anything stopping this song from Billboard #1 soon or later .
But definitely not for three weeks more.
Anyway, they are light years ahead of the situation they were at with Misery.
Time is a Kind Knight.
The thing is that we'll see if it doesn't free fall once it loses #1 exposure. The song is good but not that catchy at least not as MLJ.
