Only You Can Love... Urbanalysis - Billboard Chart
OYCLMTW has finally shown up on the Mediabase chart today, down at #48 with 2.054 mill in audience for Keith.  It's likely that he debuted on Billboard on this week's chart, maybe in the #50 to #55 range, though there's no way to know until maybe later in the week.  But this Mediabase appearance does mean I can start this thread, and start my projecting of where the song will move each ensuing week.  I'll start tomorrow with the first prediction, for next week's chart.  It's been pretty rough in the last month, with no longer having access to the Billboard audiences, and it feels like my similar projecting work on the Strait board is not as top-notch as it used to be.  But we have to make do with whatever data or lack of data that we have...  And I have mentioned before, when this song was first announced as the next single, that I'm not enamored of the choice, and have reservations about just how high it will get on the chart...

It's been pretty rough in the last month, with no longer having access to the Billboard audiences, and it feels like my similar projecting work on the Strait board is not as top-notch as it used to be.  But we have to make do with whatever data or lack of data that we have... 

And I have mentioned before, when this song was first announced as the next single, that I'm not enamored of the choice, and have reservations about just how high it will get on the chart.  I thought Kiss A Girl was headed for #1, and they gave up on it just as it reached #3.  I feel OYCLMTW will at best reach #5 or so, so maybe they can balance out both songs and will be able to push Only You higher on the chart than what I will be expecting.  We'll see.  But it's always fun to start watching a new single climb the charts!

    Bill, you and Jon are treasures. This is the BEST thread on Keith's board and always will be. Good news (re KU's chart stats) or bad news, this is the one thread that unites all of us and for a brief time we are truly "one."

    I don't post often, but I do come and read, and I NEVER miss reading this thread. Can't thank you enough for being so great to all of us. We love you guys; this board would not be the same without you. Looking forward to a new thread on TSCA soon. :)

    Thanks from me, too, Bill. I love these predictions and this thread. So, what's that saying - see you on the flip side.

    I wanted Darrell Scott to win -- but since I don't remember seeing him nominated, KU would have been an acceptable substitute. But I don't care about award shows.

    I see that the spins total for OY is dropping below top 10 and the song will go recurrent, so I will follow Jon's example and abandon this thread too.

    I have this song ranked in the top 40 hits of the year, and I'm pretty sure Billboard and MB will have it in the 30 to 40 range in their year-end surveys (which will get more attention than mine). Very nice chart run, and a big year for KU on country radio -- and now it's time for his first hit of 2010 to take center stage.

    It's always sad to see the thread go away, just because you Urbanites post so much wonderful material. But I'm sure the next one will have just as much Urbanity. Thanks for being such a devoted, loyal group.

    Good, hope Brad gets completely out of the way! The Nashville industry thinks he can do no wrong. I know everyone on the sites I read are wanting Brad to win..just because it's his turn or he's due. First we had...a vote for a Taylor because she's the lone female...then you have votes for Brad because he's due or it's his turn! Guess I need to just turn off the computer and work since that's where I'm at and stop reading these predictions! I'm only getting myself worked up! Anyhow, I'm so ready to hear TIWC on radio...then I'll be happy!! lol! Thanks BB for all your great posts! BTW...who are wanting to win EOTY??? Nope, I don't really want to hear that answer...just kidding!!

    OY spends its 19th and final chart week at #8. Fine chart run, nothing to complain about with this one. A most enjoyable ride.

    Brad is already at #41 with his new song, so it looks like TSCA will go up behind Brad and not have to compete with it. But there are always other songs that will compete for chart position, so we'll find out over the next few months who will be getting in the way. And, with any luck, getting steamrollered.

    Probably not good enough for a chart debut on Billboard, but we do have a sighting, way down near the bottom, of TSCA with 210k on MB. I think we're only a week away from the opening of a new Urbanalysis thread. Jon's got to get his abacus out of deep storage.

    Thanks Bill B for providing the update on GH Album.. I hope with the upcoming holiday sales, the numbers will increase for GH and DG.

    I know it's not exactly on topic, but I just saw some sales statistics and wanted to tell you that the GH album is at about 790k, a few weeks from selling its 800,000th copy. I don't see that one listed too often, so I'm providing you the update while I can.

    It's going to surpass a million in sales, though I'm sure it will take awhile getting there. Would be nice to see DG get to 800k or even 850 during the run of TSCA.
