Well, after over three months of relentless chart domination, Uptown Funk has been dethroned by See You Again by Wiz Khalifa and Charlie Puth, a song that sped its way onto the scene four weeks ago (I think), slowly gained traction, jumped drastically into the Top 10, and then burst right into the #1 spot on the Hot 100. That is amazing, because we've had other tracks that have dominated the Top 10 and been trying to fight Uptown Funk for weeks now, like Thinking Out Loud, Sugar, and Love Me Like You Do, all to no avail. But it was strong with this one.
However, people are predicting it won't last. Getting back to Love Me Like You Do, another movie soundtrack hit which has been destroying most of its competition, and Earned It which is from the same film and has been in the Top 10 for a little while now, if those tracks were anything to go by, then it's difficult to determine if See You Again will have a sizable run on the chart or not - at the very least, I hope it sticks around long enough to make the Year-End Hot 100.
What do you guys think about this? Although Uptown Funk is still a rocking party jam, it is nice to see a new #1 for a change.
