Twenty One Pilots’ “Stressed Out” Earns 5th Week as Alt Radio’s #1 Song

As it makes inroads at pop radio (where it rises to #26), Twenty One Pilots’ “Stressed Out” continues to rule the duo’s core alternative radio format.

The song tops the Mediabase alt radio airplay chart for a fifth consecutive week.

This week’s victory comes courtesy the song’s 3,287 tracking week spins (+68). It received nearly 650 plays more than its closest competitor.

Cold War Kids’ “First,” again that closest competitor, received 2,638 plays during the November 29-December 5 tracking week (-4).

Positioned as they were last week, Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats’ “SOB” (#3, = | 2,385, -68), Death Cab For Cutie’s “The Ghosts of Beverly Drive” (#4, = | 2,368, +90), and Coleman Hell’s “2 Heads” (#5, = | 2,109, -72) complete the Top 5.
