Adele’s “When We Were Young,” which ranks as this week’s most-added song at the hot adult contemporary format, also tops the pop radio add board.

The second “25” single earns pop’s most added honor thanks to pickups from 95 Mediabase-monitored pop stations.

Already #22 on the pop airplay chart even with predecessor “Hello” still commanding massive attention, “When We Were Young” is poised to become another big hit. The massive wave of new support will not hurt its cause.

While it does not technically impact until next week, Taylor Swift’s new “Out Of The Woods” is already generating enthusiasm. Added by 57 monitored stations, the sixth “1989” single takes second on the weekly pop add board.

Jason Derulo’s “Get Ugly” follows with 50 adds, while Selena Gomez’ “Hands To Myself” and Shawn Hook’s “Sound Of Your Heart” earn fourth and fifth-place, respectively, on the add board. Gomez’ tune received 41 adds, while Hook’s earned 36.

This week’s other notable pop options: Justin Bieber’s “Love Yourself” (34 adds, 6th-most-added), Charlie Puth’s “One Call Away” (27, 7th, tie), Flo Rida’s “My House” (27, 7th, tie), Post Malone’s “White Iverson” (26, 9th), and G-Eazy x Bebe Rexha’s “Me, Myself & I” (24, 10th).
