Ok. So if I'm reading this right, the word "debut" is the important word here.
"Hot 100" is the industry-standard chart of song popularity, published by Billboard. The "100" there is confusing the headline, so let's call that "THE LIST."
So it's impressive to get a song on THE LIST. Having it anywhere on the list is genuinely impressive. But it's more impressive to hit the Top Ten of THE LIST. We'll call those songs "SUPERHITS."
As impressive as having a song that becomes a SUPERHIT is, it's even more impressive for your song to start there, right as soon as it's come out, without needing to work its way up from the bottom. Let's call those "LIGHTNING BOLTS." Also, everything we're taking about is on THE LIST, we can collapse that repetitive term now.
So, no SUPERHITS that weren't LIGHTNING BOLTS. But a quick look at Wikipedia shows that she's had 13 singles (which...wow, I thought she'd been around longer than that), which means she's released three songs that were never SUPERHITS. Either they got on THE LIST but peaked at 11 or lower, or they never made THE LIST at all.
You make the world a better place. Thank you.
You're very kind, thank you.
I concur, that was excellent.
