Pop Chart Graphs

Tech Buzz For the first time ever, Mike Frumin posts this cool graph showing how pop songs open big and then decline. So much for “climbing the charts” — looks like most music does best on the opening week. Thanks to Mike for releasing the graph which was originally created for a top secret research project at a hedge fund. Andy Baio’s interesting recent work on pop songs reminded me of Mike’s chart. We are in the midst of a pop music chart Renaissance.
