Three days ago Abel retweeted my tweet from my other account and posted the video on his instagram story. I’ve been a fan of him for 8 years and never imagined he would ever notice my work. I’m so grateful that he saw and reposted it and I hope he knows how much he inspires me 🥹

When a certain fandom tries to drag you for predicting their fave will lose 0.5M–1.5M monthly listeners per day... and then it actually happens. She lost 1.1M in the last 2 days. I predicted it too early but it was bound to happen sooner or later. Nobody's touching Abel's record

I'm so glad "Blinding Lights" earned its biggest gain EVER on Daily Top Songs Global, rising +111 spots to #66 on December 26th. It broke its previous record of +91 when it rose from #164 to #73 on the same date last year. It was the 10th biggest gainer on the chart a week ago:

"Blinding Lights" ends a 16-day streak on Spotify's Top 50 Global chart, falling 12 spots to #60 after 15 songs debut above it. Excluding debuts, "Blinding Lights" would rank at #45 and match its longest streak in the top 50 since October 2022 with 17 straight days in the region.

"As It Was" used to outstream "Blinding Lights" by 60M weekly streams (500%) in 2022. Now it only outstreams "Blinding Lights" by 5M weekly streams (40%) and is quickly heading to 0%. Once "Blinding Lights" starts outstreaming "As It Was", it'll be impossible for Harry to pass it

WTF @Spotify !? On March 2, 2023, After Hours was #9 on Weekly Top Albums Global in its 125th week (charting every week since the chart began). The next week it stayed at #9 but was classified as a re-entry, ending its streak and re-counting its 125th week despite being its 126th.

"As It Was" barely outstreamed "Blinding Lights" in its 84th week on Spotify, but "Blinding Lights" (411M) got more total streams than "As It Was" (406M) in the same 64-84 week timeframe. Harry's numbers are negligible compared to what he'd need in order to pass "Blinding Lights"

Even with my most generous predictions (assuming "As It Was" outstreams "Blinding Lights" until 2026), it still won't become the #1 song on Spotify. The closest it will come is within 850M streams, and then "Blinding Lights" will start outstreaming it and Harry can't catch up

"As It Was" had a huge debut (even bigger than "Stay") so it'll break "Blinding Lights" records for fastest song to reach 3B-5B streams. But being 200 days faster than "Blinding Lights" isn't enough to pass it in total streams, especially since its weekly streams are slowing down
