Hello will be #1 for a LONG time. No one will even dream of dethroning it until at least January. And honestly, I could see her replacing herself at #1 with WWWY in the winter months.
Only song in the top 100 with a discount. I guess the AMAs didn't do the trick.
They did, the song went from #39 to top 15 after the AMAs (And close to top 10 with the others versions combined). At least do a research before posting sis.

Great! I hope it spends a lot of weeks at #1 on the Hot 100.
@silpiet @gthot20 Did Billboard change the Hot 100 CMA policy right before the release of '25' and say nothing at all about it?
BB will get hammered with a HUGE PR debacle if its changed the Hot 100 CMA policy, without notice on top of that, right before 25 gets released. This will infuriate many BB enthusiasts, which isn't need RIGHT AFTER the introduction of the highly unpopular 25/52 super-recurrency policy. This could cost BB a significant amount of credibility among music industry executives too, not just with us "chart geeks"
Since when does Billboard care? They've changed rules after charting weeks before to change the #1 album and gave no ****s
The week The Weekend released his album, BB reported a significant drop in track sales for "The Hills." But when the Hot 100 was published, "The Hills" won that week's DG (because the parent album sold so well that week). This was within the last couple of months, and BB has said nothing about a change in the way they count CMA sales toward the Hot 100 since that time. I feel fairly certain "Hello" will not lose points for negative sales like the old BB policy caused Swift to do in 2012 with Never.
CMA affects the Hot Digital Songs chart but not the Hot100.
Hello could lose the #1 on HDS but all its points will be counted towards the Hot100.
I always wondered how come they don't make the price of digital downloads cheaper? It's clear that people don't find today's music worth buying, so would they really rather the entire downloading market die than to just lower the prices back to at least 0.99$? I mean getting a $10 gift card should allow someone to buy 10 songs, but with the current prices you can only get 7 songs which is dumb as ****
