It was dropping already but mostly because of the gift card effect. Guess it wasn't a favorite between teens. It will recover in January. I remember the same happened with "Roses" last year
Really good for him considering the gift card effect is still inflating sales.
The fact Michael's songs are widely available for streaming may prevent him from selling as strongly as Prince did after his death. Prince was already #1 by now, but his songs weren't widely available for ODS or YT streaming. We'll see. Airplay won't roll until after the following week's chart.
All these huge boosts to urban songs makes me wonder how much longer will this urban craze last. It's clear that boys and girls both are listening to these songs only. Cause few years back we would see major pop music boosts, which were not seen now...

Everything goes in cycles, as the genres have throughout Hot 100 history. Hopefully Rock isn't far behind Urban.
Probably not. The song is already declining a bit on iTunes. Probably it will hold the #2 position until Wednesday. Still amazing for him, I wasn't expecting to Mercy hit the top 5 like....in never
