Blurred Lines Current AI: 226M

Room for growth:
Pop - 19M
Rhythmic - 6M
Hot AC - 15.5M

Total room for growth: 61.5M

Highly unlikely, but if it happens... omg

Most songs that debut at #1 show no longevity and end up with disappointing sales, for example We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together.

Now there's a big chance that gaga is getting a huge radio deal in order to top the charts on the song's debut week but it will hurt her at the end especially if the song doesn't live up to expectations. Her label should be smarter and let her first single gets a normal chart run.

Except that her chart runs will never be normal like they once were with her first singles. They're too frontloaded in sales and fall off just as quickly.

She hasn't had a normal chart run for a hit single since "Bad Romance." "The Edge Of Glory" was close, but it never re-entered the top five after its sales debut - a symptom of being frontloaded.

Nope. It was destined to be overshadowed. The video had nothing to do with radio opting to play other songs that were much more suited for summer airplay (GME, PRA, Super Bass, LFN, The Lazy Song, Lighters, etc.)

King Robin remains unbothered tho.

TLS was overshadowed too. I remember it stalling outside Top 15 on Rhythmic because of all those other songs you listed.

Robin so hudge... that's monster

i meant sale-wise

Gaga has never been a radio monster anyways

[Sanni]

Radio is just not here for miley no matter how much of a digital smash this is. It should be top 20 by now. The top 3 songs havin 14k+ spin on pop

Her pop airplay was always great though. It was just her crossover airplay that sucked. Rhythmic never really got into her (they picked her up at the beginning, but not far beyond that), Urban would never touch her, and she didn't appeal to HAC and AC.

With Born This Way, she was able to crossover to HAC and AC, but her pop airplay was less than stellar. And that's the problem. She's yet to successfully crossover with a pop airplay smash.

I don't want Blurred Lines to slow down, not yet, it's been out for less than five months and everyone is literally dying to see it slowing down. It still has more room for growth.

[Ger-55]

Robin is not slowing down, it's the normal update he should be getting, he can't still growing up more with 4-5M updates each day..

I feel bad for Daft Punk, I'd wish it could be some Hollaback Girl/We Belong Together situation but that didm't happen.. Imagine Dragons with that update Without Z100 Power Rotation support

Idk why radio is so reluctant to send Miley to the top. Like its a POP song. It's #2 on iTunes, #3 on the Hot 100 for a third week, it's #1 on youtube, like what more do they want?

Daft Punk screwed themselves out of the #1 by not releasing a video, if they had released the video the week after the album's release the streaming points would have made it go #1. But now Robin's lead is too massive and Get Lucky is already decreasing in sales

Hope not, it is a really bad song.
