and really, given its rough sales, airplay peak, and weak streaming stats, I'm surprised it has stuck along as long as it has. Next up was 'Love Me Like You Do' by Ellie Goulding. It dropped faster in airplay than 'Uptown Funk', only tied 'Earned It' in airplay, and only rose on YouTube because people are more tired of Taylor Swift than Maroon 5 at this point and they had to get sick of 'Blank Space' eventually. But both are where they are because 'Sugar' by Maroon 5 had a rough week. In a slightly similar category was 'Earned It' by The Weeknd, which may have taken the top in airplay and with good streaming, but the sales are nothing special, only losing to 'Trap Queen' thanks to that song's stronger streaming and sales. This'll become important in a minute, but rising up a few slots to #3 was 'Trap Queen' by Fetty Wap, with solid sales, still a ton of streaming presence, and slowing but respectable sales - although like with 'Uptown Funk', it's less that it was strong and more about its competition.
But the surprise is that 'Uptown Funk' by Mark Ronson & Bruno Mars stayed at #2, because it did not top sales by a considerable margin, the strongest streaming is on YouTube, and it still lost airplay this week. Charlie Puth held on tightly to its #1 slot, with expected sales drops compensated by massive airplay gains, and still topping streaming and YouTube charts. Unsurprisingly, 'See You Again' by Wiz Khalifa ft. well, you'll see.īut of course, let's start with our Top Ten. Meanwhile, a bunch of songs fell off the charts because of longevity and were mostly replaced by. As it was this week, it was all about what song would manage to make that big push. that's not really happening, and from what I dug up this week, it lends all the more evidence to the fact that if 'See You Again' hadn't shown up, 'Uptown Funk' would have broken 'One Sweet Day's record, or at least would have gotten a lot closer. So here's the odd thing - remember when I said last week that the charts tend to become more unstable when there's a big change at the top, as the old hit tumbles and plenty other songs jockey for its place? Well.
