Katy is about 40M AI away from her and she is coming for the top 10 soon at this rate. Pitbull needs to hurry up because Katy and LMFAO are on his tail and Adele probably has a couple of more weeks left in her. This is a wide open race for the next #1.

The Edge of Glory as a countdown single did shoot to #1 iTunes and stay there for a long time. But then the song fell slowly to the Top 20-30, and with the help of AI, SNL, Chrome, GMA, it finally took off back to the Top 10, so that was a huge effect on the song itself without much help from AI and airplay at that time. Now her airplay is increasing and the video is coming (music video often has more effect than anything else, especially to GaGa, like Judas from #30-40 to #10,......), so I believe The Edge of Glory will have pretty good sales as well as peaks, but the only thing to stop is her contenders, obviously Pitbull, Adele, and Katy, maybe LMFAO.
I also think Party Rock Anthem may stall though, its video already came out, its airplay is the only thing to help sell the song on iTunes....
