Meghan Trainor & John Legend Reach Hot AC Radio’s Top 5; Shawn Mendes Enters Top 10

Powered by the week’s third-greatest airplay gain, Meghan Trainor’s “Like I’m Gonna Lose You (featuring John Legend)” vaults into the Top 5 on this week’s Mediabase hot adult contemporary airplay chart.

Up two places, Trainor’s fourth “Title” single claims #5 on the strength of the ~5,30 plays it received during the October 18-24 tracking week.

This week’s spin count bests last week’s by a healthy 629; only Adele’s “Hello” (+1,037) and Shawn Mendes’ “Stitches” (+724).

That gain allows “Stitches” to reach the Top 10 on this week’s chart.

The song, which received ~4,165 tracking week spins (+733), advances three places to #8 on this week’s chart.

— “Like I’m Gonna Lose You” follows “All About That Bass” and “Lips Are Movin” in becoming Trainor’s third Top 5 hit at Hot AC radio. “Stitches” is Mendes’ first single to reach the Top 10.
