I noticed Kworb is projecting See You Again to fall below Uptown Funk this week on HSS (and just barely under TOL). It's early in the week, so that could change, but it'll happen in the next month or so, at least with UF. Since SYA seemed like the song most likely to give 2015 at least one 4 million seller, it's turned into a huge disappointment sales wise given its huge start.
Also, with SYA dropping down to under 20k/wk before reaching 3.5 million downloads, it's going to need a big bump at the AMAs and Christmas holidays (by which time it will likely already be off the Hot 100) to reach 4 million fairly early in 2016. I'm projecting SYA will stay on the Hot 100 until sometime between Columbus Day and Veterans Day by Billboard Chart Dates. It'll hit 4 million sometime in 2016, but I wanted it to happen in 2015. Is Furious 7 on DVD yet, because that will help SYA too (if that hasn't already happened).

SYA is falling because everyone is going back to school
Although SYA broke out from its status as a Furious 7 song and became a massive hit, it is still tied to the film in a way that I'm not surprised it has had poor sales longevity.
