i have no idea what any of this means, pls explain 

[PennCentralFan 269]

I have a feeling that Lana would have gone platinum in the US with 1 million in sales if it weren't for music sharing.

Do you get the concept of radio Airplay? The (+ whatever number) is the amount of audience impressions a song gets, in millions. The spins are the amount of time the song is played on radio.

I get the spin concept  but what does "audience impression" mean ? I cant really translate it into my native language

 Ok, here I go.

 

Each spin is worth a certain audience value, depending on the station and the time of day. It is cumulative, so "100 million" does not necessarily mean that 100 million people have heard it. It could be 5 million people each hearing the song 20 times.

Chart News: Lana Del Rey's 'Born To Die' stays steady at #38 on the Billboard 200 selling another 9,028 copies (up 15%) [Source]

[Hello Heaven 1,578]

Rock? Oh well, she seems to be doing well on them.

Rock? Oh well, she seems to be doing well on them. 

Rock Songs is a chart published weekly by Billboard magazine which ranks the week's most popular alternative, mainstream rock and triple A songs ranked by radio airplay across all formats, sales data, and streaming activity.

 

I guess she debuted on those charts due to streaming activity such as on Spotify & sales. Her genre is alternative, so I guess that's why also it charts here.
