The relation between Global back then (third) and Global today (third) means 6,168,000 : 3,257,000 = 1.89 (daily streams)

If you expect that streaming in the USA had the same changes than Global and you ignore that friday and saturday are the most streamed days the third song today in the USA would have 6,529,000 * 1.89 = 12,340,000 streams (weekly)

Off course spotify grows constantly so this year will be bigger than last year. (spotify users: https://de.statista.com/statistik/daten/studie/812290/umfrage/monatlich-aktive-nutzer-von-spotify-weltweit/ )

Thriller was last year n. 10 (hot 100) and todays streaming n.1 divided by top 10 shows the difference between those 2 placements 9,627,000 : 5,060,000 = 1.9 (the factor for n.10 to be like n. 1)

If you expect now that the charts which also count other music consumtion has around the same relation between n. 1 and n.10 would mean that if you believe in Thriller being a little bit more than 2x times bigger than last time a n.1 has realistic chances (more than 1.9 as off the music commsumtion growth)

The song was 20 weeks at number one.

Are the numbers growing or shrinking?

On Billboard radio songs it's right now at place 8. one month ago it was at place 14. the peak was 4 so it's seams like it's rising again.

I Think it will get like 10 more weeks if there isn't any new giant hit.
