The #1 was definitely a lot better than I was anticipating it to be! :)
Anyway, I could see it staying there for at least a month in total.

Ed Sheeran and Justin should debut no.1 in the UK this week right? :)

They’re almost guaranteed to at this point. Hope you’re doing good today Marco! :D

I am thanks!!!! Hope you are too! They will probably debut no. 2 in the USA but I still see the song going number one some time in June. Lil Nas X is falling on streams unless he releases 5 more versions...lol. Plus, radio will favor Ed Sheeran and Justin Bieber this summer. Sales wise they will probably be close until June, but I think radio is where I Don't Care will take off. :)

I'm doing okay thanks! Just about to finish my exams, then I'm finally off for my summer break. :)
'Old Town Road' doesn't seem to be going anywhere at the moment (it's been on 750 points for the past five weeks). Also, even though it's falling on streams as you mentioned, it's still getting over 100 million of those per week, which is probably due to all the different remixes you mentioned, but obviously the one with Billy Ray Cyrus is contributing the most.
I do feel 'I Don't Care' will become a big radio hit & even if it doesn't get to #1, it should have a lengthy stay in the Top 10!

Adele's Hello and JB's Sorry.....talk about a hard hurdle JB had when those songs released two days apart. But he replaced Hello....he can do it again. Their music video comes out tomorrow. It's Youtube time! lol

Yeah, that took like seven or eight weeks at #2 I believe. I'm sure it's not over for 'I Don't Care' in terms of getting to #1 on the Hot 100 yet (although 'Old Town Road' should lead by nearly double tomorrow).

I do think that the streaming ratio needs to be changed to be like 300: 1 sale as this just feels unfair on the people that get high sales but such low streams for example P!nk - A million dreams was in the top 3 sales for much of the first week of entry and becuase she ended below the top 200 on spotify it ended up her barely making the top 100 on the official chart.

Becuase of the compiling where streaming gets full priority almost - James Arthur will prob not get into the top 40.
