It's not clear to me what prompted the return to the charts. Some kind of digital sales discount coupled to a coordinated fan campaign to buy copies?Lefty wrote: ↑Wed Jul 07, 2021 5:50 pmThat's always been my favorite of theirs.

probably the drought, this isn't a Hot 100 #1, which would be the overall #1, it is the "Rock Digital Song Sales" chart.mas3cf wrote: ↑Wed Jul 07, 2021 7:00 pmExtreme drought in the West?Robert K S wrote: ↑Wed Jul 07, 2021 5:57 pmIt's not clear to me what prompted the return to the charts.

I've said it before, but because of streaming changing the industry, and Billboard changing with it to remain relevant, we're going to see a lot of weird things happen and records broken; while other records will never be in danger of falling.

The Copa America has just 1 hit in the J-Archives.
Lionel Messi has 5 hits, and his first name is pronounced leo-NELL. His last name is pronounced just like "messy"

It's my fault. I went out this morning wearing my Brasil shirt. At halftime when I had to go out again it was 1-0 Argentina and I switched to that shirt.BrigadierSolo13 wrote: ↑Sat Jul 10, 2021 10:08 pmBTW, just for reference:BrigadierSolo13 wrote: ↑Sat Jul 10, 2021 10:03 pm Argentina have won the 2021 Copa America, beating host nation Brazil, 1-0.

Re: 2021 Current Events Discussion Thread
My only solace is that I was at work and didn't have to watch this game. Hopefully tomorrow's Euro finals will be more entertaining. It has every reason to be more offensively explosive, which means it will end up 0-0 and go to PK's...MarkBarrett wrote: ↑Sat Jul 10, 2021 10:24 pmIt's my fault.

No hits for Biz Markie in the J-Archive. Do we expect that to change?

I wouldn’t. I’m surprised there isn’t a single hit though.

The 2021 Open Championship was held in England, not Scotland. It’s actually the southernmost course in the Open rota.
