It also spends a second week as hot adult contemporary radio’s #1 song.
The smash “25” single received ~18,924 pop spins during the November 22-28 tracking week. Up by 1,596 from last week’s count, the weekly tally comfortably positions “Hello” as the week’s number one song.
Drake’s “Hotline Bling,” which rises one place to #2, received a considerably lesser ~15,933 plays during the official tracking week (+91).

“Hello” concurrently received ~7,050 weekly spins at Hot AC (+285). While its margin of victory was not as significant as the pop lead, it still reigns as the format’s #1.

Taylor Swift’s “Wildest Dreams” (#3, = | ~6,224, -156), Meghan Trainor’s “Like I’m Gonna Lose You (featuring John Legend)” (#4, = | ~6,057, +35), and Shawn Mendes’ “Stitches” (#5, = | ~5,973, +285) also hold tight this week.
