#1 Watch: As "Maps" Slows, "Undo" Likely To Hold At Summit

After weighing several sets of numbers through the database, it's become apparent that Maroon 5's "Maps" will not debut at #1, though its spin data is tracking higher than that of 2012's smash #1 debut "Payphone (feat. Wiz Khalifa)" (which opened to a whopping 116 points back in April). As the tally enters its final hours of awarding points, it has become increasingly clear that Sanna Nielsen's "Undo" will end this frame at #1, for a second straight week. Nielsen's "Undo" will not only take the summit, it will also set yet another record for the largest point week for any artist other than Lady Gaga and largest point week for any artist with their debut chart entry; it's currently on pace to end the week with over 125 points (which should rank it at #4 all time, #1 for a non Lady Gaga track).

Meanwhile, Kiesza's "Hideaway" will likely take the 2nd or 3rd place position with a strong weekly number that's highly likely to be greater than the track's 115 point start at #1 back in early May. Her latest track, "Giant In My Heart" was pegged to start around #3 (ahead of Maroon 5's "Maps") but will likely barely manage a top 10 debut. That's still going to be impressive, but not as amazing as the #1 opening of "Hideaway".
