Katy Perry Dethrones Robin Thicke Atop Hot 100 Perry's 'Roar' rises 2-1, snapping the 12-week reign of Thicke's 'Blurred Lines,' featuring T.I. and Pharrell. Plus, Eminem's 'Berzerk' debuts at No. 3 and Lorde's 'Royals' leaps into the top 10Registering a 17% gain in overall Hot 100 chart points, "Roar" leads Digital Songs for a third week, selling 448,000 downloads for the week ending Sept. 1 (up 14%), according to Nielsen SoundScan, after Perry performed it the previous Sunday (Aug. 25) at the end of the MTV Video Music Awards. "Roar" also leads the subscription services-based On-Demand Songs chart, where it charges 4-1 with 2.1 million U.S. streams, up 33%, according to Nielsen BDS. It climbs 5-3 on the overall Streaming Songs survey (5.4 million, up 16%). "Roar" becomes Perry's eighth Hot 100 No. 1. She first led with "I Kissed a Girl," which began a seven-week command (her longest) the week of July 5, 2008. In that span, Perry has quickly scaled the list of the women with the most No. 1s in the chart's 55-year history. Among female soloists, only Mariah Carey (18), Madonna, Rihanna (12 each), Whitney Houston (11) and Janet Jackson (10) have totaled more leaders. Among all artists, Perry is one of just 16 acts with at least eight No. 1s; the Beatles lead with 20 Hot 100 toppers. "Roar" ushers in Perry's third Capitol Records album, "Prism," due Oct. 22. The lead singles from her prior two studio sets likewise topped the Hot 100: "Kissed," the first track from "One of the Boys," and "California Gurls" (featuring Snoop Dogg), the first of five No. 1s from 2010's "Teenage Dream." (The latter release became the first by a woman, and only the second among all acts after Michael Jackson's "Bad" (1987-88), to generate five Hot 100 leaders.) Eminem bows at No. 3 on the Hot 100 with "Berzerk," which blasts in at No. 2 on Digital Songs with 362,000 downloads sold. It starts at No. 13 on Streaming Songs (2.7 million) and No. 59 on Radio Songs (21 million). "Berzerk" previews Eminem's album "The Marshall Mathers LP 2" (which was teased in a commercial during the VMAs), due Nov. 5. Lady Gaga recedes 4-6 on the Hot 100 with "Applause," with which she opened the VMAs. The lead single from "ARTPOP," due Nov. 11, jumps 5-4 on Digital Songs 213,000 (up 31%) and 35-31 on Radio Songs (39 million, up 7%). It descends 3-6 on Streaming Songs (4.2 million, down 29%) after benefitting in the prior chart week from the Aug. 19 premiere of its official video. "Applause" tops the Dance/Electronic Songs chart for a third week. Avicii's "Wake Me Up!" holds (with a bullet) at No. 7 on the Hot 100. ******************** ******************** For the complete article, go to www.billboard.com/articles/news/5680131/katy-perry-dethrones-robin-thicke-atop-hot-100 |

TOP 10 TRACKS: It was a healthy week for singles sales, with Katy Perry blazing to nearly 450k, Eminem debuting north of 360k, six of the Top 10 entries experiencing week-over-week increases and three others holding steady. Indeed, only Robin Thicke's long-running "Blurred Lines" slipped, and merely by 3%. What's more, Thicke's follow-up, the Princely titled "Give It 2 U", will soon replace his first smash, jumping #72-17 and moving 84k (+251%). Also picking up steam: Lady Gaga (+31%), coming off her extremely effective VMAs perf; teen dynamo Lorde (+16); Miley Cyrus, whose two tracks totaled 358k; and Drake (+57%), taking up residence for what's expected to be an extended stay in the high-rent district. 1. Katy Perry, Roar 448k2. Eminem, Berzerk 362k 3. Robin Thicke, Blurred Lines 244k 4. Lady Gaga, Applause 213k 5. Miley Cyrus, Wrecking Ball 201k 6. Avicii, Wake Me Up 175k 7. Jay Z f/Justin Timberlake, Holy Grail 170k 8. Lorde, Royals 167k 9. Miley Cyrus, We Can't Stop 157k 10. Drake f/Majid Jordan, Hold On, We're Going Home 141k On the flip side of this shiny coin, we bid a fond adieu to Imagine Dragons' Radioactive, which exited the Top 10 in its 58th week of release, slipping 20% to 92k and landing at #15. source: www.hitsdailydouble.com/news/rumormill.cgi

Saw this yesterday on twitter...  *** South Korea is the 2nd most important market in Asia behind Japan, but overshadows Japan in the digital arena. This has been a truly unexpected pleasant surprise! Thank you, Psy! :D |

Katy Perry's 'Roar' Rules Hot 100 For Second Week, Lorde Reaches Top 3 Once again, Katy Perry's "Roar" makes the loudest noise on the Billboard Hot 100, as the song rules the survey for a second week, fueled in large part by the premiere of its video last week. Meanwhile, Lorde and Lana Del Rey & Cedric Gervais make notable moves within the chart's top 10 and Drake returns to the region."Roar" claims the Hot 100's top Streaming Gainer award, as it rises 3-1 on the Streaming Songs chart with a 122% increase to 12 million U.S. streams, up 33%, according to Nielsen BDS. The song's fun queen-of-the-jungle-themed video premiered on Thursday (Sept. 5). "Roar" leads the subscription services-based On-Demand Songs chart for a second week (2.1 million, down 1%). "Roar" crowns Digital Songs for a fourth week, selling 373,000 downloads for the week ending Sept. 8 (down 17%), according to Nielsen SoundScan. (Last week, it gained by 14% in sales after Perry performed it on the MTV Video Music Awards [Aug. 25]). **************** "Roar" widens its lead tenfold atop the Hot 100 over Robin Thicke's former 12-week No. 1 "Blurred Lines" (featuring T.I. and Pharrell), which spends a second week at No. 2. "Roar" gains by 18% in overall chart points, while "Lines" loses 2% of its sum, granting the former title a hefty 42% lead in points; last week, the margin was 4%. Still, "Lines" leads Radio Songs for a 10th week (194 million, down 5%). It's the first song to reach double-digit weeks at No. 1 since Rihanna's "We Found Love" (featuring Calvin Harris) led for 12 frames in 2011-12. "Lines" logs the longest Radio Songs command for a solo male since Lil Wayne's "Lollipop" (featuring Static Major) licked the competition for 10 weeks in 2008. (Goo Goo Dolls' "Iris" holds the mark for the most weeks atop Radio Songs: 18, in 1998.) Sixteen-year-old New Zealander, and current Billboard magazine cover act, Lorde blasts 8-3 on the Hot 100 with her breakthrough U.S. single "Royals." The track wins top Digital Gainer honors for a fourth time in five weeks, vaulting 8-2 on Digital Songs (225,000, up 34%). It reaches the top 10 on Streaming Songs (12-8; 4 million, up 40%) and lifts 17-13 on Radio Songs (72 million, up 26%). Avicii scores his first top five hit on the Hot 100, as "Wake Me Up!" springs 7-5. It climbs 6-3 on Digital Songs (197,000, up 12%), 8-7 on Streaming Songs (4 million, up 8%) and 18-16 on Radio Songs (69 million, up 27%), the lattermost move spurred in part by the innovative dance/folk song's airplay at rock radio. On Dance/Electronic Songs, "Wake" is the new No. 1 after holding at No. 2 for two weeks. Lana Del Rey & Cedric Gervais' "Summertime Sadness" soars 10-6 on the Hot 100, marking a new peak. The track reaches the Radio Songs top 10 (13-8; 81 million, up 8%), while returning to its peak to date on Digital Songs (11-8, despite a 2% decrease to 127,000). It backtracks 10-12 on Streaming Songs, although with a 3% gain to 3.1 million. Lady Gaga regresses 6-7 on the Hot 100 with "Applause." ************** For the complete article, go to www.billboard.com/articles/news/5687387/katy-perrys-roar-rules-hot-100-for-second-week-lorde-reaches-top-3 |

TOP 10 TRACKS: It was one of those up-and-down weeks album sales were up 3% (and 6% over the same week last year) while track sales were down a percentage point (and -4% vs. a year ago at this point). The slight singles slippage is manifested on the big board right from the top, as Katy Perry dropped 17% from last week's ginormous 448k, though 373k ain't anything to sneeze at, and Eminem experienced the inevitable second-week plummet from his sizzling 363k debut week (-48%). Likewise, Miley Cyrus' Wrecking Ball went down in its third week but that was before her video hit with sledgehammer impact, so she'll be right back. Two other young stars defied the overall trend, as Lorde steamrolled all the way to #2 from #8 with an adrenaline-pumping +34%, vaulting Avicii, who went #6-3 on a +12%. To borrow Chick Hearn's coinage, both are high-fly acts. 1. Katy Perry, Roar 373k 2. Lorde, Royals 225k 3. Avicii, Wake Me Up 197k 4. Eminem, Berzerk 187k 5. Robin Thicke, Blurred Lines 168k 6. Lady Gaga, Applause 160k 7. Jay Z f/Justin Timberlake, Holy Grail 159k 8. Lana Del Rey, Summertime Sadness 127k9. Drake f/Majid Jordan, Hold On, We're Going Home 127k 10. Miley Cyrus, Wrecking Ball 116k The highest-charting debut was Coldplay's "Atlas" from Republic's Hunger Games Pt. Dieu soundtrack, with nearly 45k, landing the epic ballad at #29. source: www.hitsdailydouble.com/news/rumormill.cgi
