Ugh. I hate you comparing HG with that song but I totally understand. At least, Hollaback Girl WENT #1 and for like 9 weeks, it would be like 12-14 weeks because Gwen was a huge digital force but Mariah has the HUGE airplay
Though I suppose you could argue that Urban's increased willingness to play white artists is helping out
That's what he meant. Robin is white so it's easier for him to get played on HAC.
Yeah, rhythmic radio in particular have been playing way more white artists recently, although I don't think it matters for Robin, he was established enough on urban radio that he would've done well anyway.
And you know what, sometimes it does work this way.
If you live, love and breath music, sometimes it's not that hard to know what songs will end up being epic and loved for years to come and when something will not.
BL is just not gonna be nostalgic/epic song.
"La Macarena" is not exactly something you'd like to live, love and breath on a daily basis and it's way more remembered and memorable than WBT, unfortunately.
Not really. I don't speak for everyone, but I'm waiting for Billboard's numbers on this morning's article confirming whether the record is officially broken before celebrating. 'Til then, I'm just watching BL's incredible climb as well as getting my kii's from Mimi stans like berberocka getting very pressed and seething about it.
I will continue to be pressed because Blurred Lines aint even a masterpiece to begin with. Its like almost a parody at this point. Quite a miracle the General Public sided over it I am DEEPLY sad that he will overtake Mimi's record prolly and that will make me continue to Seethe and HATE ON HIM

Lol.
Well I can argue a few things on how LC became memorable but I think you got my point, you might not agree and I might be wrong but it will be pointless to keep going at it. Only time will tell.
