This struck me as pretty silly. If, in an extreme hypothetical, the biggest hit in the history of eternity charted at #1 in the last week of 2013 and then stayed at #1 all 52 weeks of 2014, would that artist really not be counted as having a song chart in 2014? Hard to believe.
So then, in a more realistic stretch, what if this had beaten Mariah's longest #1 and lasted 17 weeks? All the way to end of April—i.e., 1/3 of the year! I think we'd find it pretty laughable to not count it as having been a 2014 hit. But whatever.
On topic: only way a teaser trailer makes sense to me at this point is if it includes 30 uninterrupted seconds and gets her streaming points. She needs points now, not just the anticipation of future points at the end of next week.
