Original post has been updated to reflect complete information for week ending March 9, 2024.
"Dark Matter" falls from No. 1 to No. 2 on the two charts it topped last week. Linkin Park's new song supplants Pearl Jam at the top of the Rock & Alternative Airplay chart by debuting at No. 1. A song by Bad Omens that has been on the chart for 77 weeks replaces "Dark Matter" atop the Hot Hard Rock Songs chart.
"Dark Matter" makes a nice move from No. 39 to No. 26 on the Triple A chart. The song seems a bit heavy for Triple A so I'm not sure how much more room there is to improve, but it has already done better at Triple A than I would have expected, so who knows?I gather speed from you fucking with me.0 -
That Linkin Park song's video has 4.1 million view in 11 days. Dark Matter just got to a million after almost a month. Even after good reviews and word of mouth. I've heard of Bad Omens but haven't heard a song. Not sure which song it is. I heard a few on YouTube. Sounds similar. Not something I would think would be on the chart for 77 weeks. Especially doesn't sound Hard Rock

The Linkin Park song ("Friendly Fire") is getting more airplay at alternative rock stations (No. 9 to Pearl Jam's No. 10), while Pearl Jam is getting more airplay at Mainstream Rock stations (No. 3 to Linkin Park's No. 8). You would think this would give Pearl Jam the overall edge for Hot Rock & Alternative Airplay, but it doesn't, presumably because the Alternative Airplay panel is bigger than the Mainstream Rock Airplay panel.
With respect to the YouTube numbers, Linkin Park is more popular than Pearl Jam. But it also has something to do with the fact that "Friendly Fire" is a ballad, whereas "Dark Matter" is hard and heavy. Ballads will always have greater crossover/mainstream potential. This is further illustrated by the fact that the Linkin Park has enough overall consumption, including digital sales, to rank at No. 2 on the Bubbling Under the Hot 100 chart. This effectively means that it is No. 102 across all genres. "Dark Matter" likely never even got to the top 200 across all genres.I gather speed from you fucking with me.0 -

Original post updated for airplay charts for week ending March 16, 2024. Thanks, igotid88, for the heads-up on the Apple/Amazon thread.
Additional info from the article linked to in the other thread: last week (i.e., reflected on the charts for the week ending March 9, 2024), "Dark Matter" was streamed 876,000 times and digitally downloaded 1,000 times. In case anyone wonders, the most-streamed song in the U.S. that week ("Carnival") was streamed 32.2 million times.I gather speed from you fucking with me.0 -

I'm not sure they would want to cannibalize their own airplay by dropping another single right now. Having said that, "Superblood Wolfmoon" was released four weeks after "Dance of the Clairvoyants," so repeating that would mean a second song should be dropping... well, now.I gather speed from you fucking with me.0 -
