After narrowly defeating Coldplay's "A Sky Full of Stars" last week, Kiesza's 4 week #1 smash single "Hideaway" is now facing direct competition from Sanna Nielsen's "Undo". Up by 15% through the mid week scan, "Undo" should be able to creep into at least 2nd place by the end of the week. Unfortunately, its large gain might not be enough to knock Kiesza's runaway smash from the #1 position when the charts refresh this weekend. So who will lead the final week of spring charts? Let's dig further into the numbers.
"Undo" has continued to post outstandingly large worldwide sales and remains somewhat popular among voters (reaching #13 at its high point). At the same time, Kiesza's "Hideaway" continues to post huge gains across the board including its leap into the top 10 on the Voter's Top 50 (12-9) and its current top 20 position on the worldwide most downloaded track list (currently stalled at its #18 peak position). So... it looks like "Hideaway" might take the crown for a 5th straight week in a row, but it's really hard to tell right now.
On the flip side, last week's top 2 debuts ("Pills N Potions" and "Do It Again") may in fact swap positions. It looks like Röyksopp & Robyn's electronic synth sweeping smash "Do It Again" will likely reach the top 15 while Nicki Minaj's "Pills N Potions" should move into the same region. Despite this, "Pills N Potions" is increasing at a smaller rate than "Do It Again" is. It looks like "Do It Again" may even have a chance at the top 10. "Pills N Potions" on the other hand is likely to clock in near the edge of the top 15.
Come back for the final results and tally.
