The Chainsmokers & Halsey’s “Closer” Rockets To #30 At Pop Radio

Despite not launching until the sixth day of the tracking week, The Chainsmokers’ “Closer (featuring Halsey)” was last week’s #54 song at pop radio.

This week, it blasts into the Top 30.

Spun ~2,103 times during the July 31-August 6 tracking week, “Closer” earns #30 on this week’s Mediabase pop radio airplay chart.

This week’s spin count bests last week’s abbreviated one by a healthy 1,740 spins. Only Major Lazer’s #12 “Cold Water” (+2,316) enjoyed a greater weekly gain.

“Closer” is one of two additions to pop radio’s Top 30. Kungs & Cookin’ On 3 Burners’ “This Girl” earns #26 on this week’s chart, while Hailee Steinfeld & Grey’s “Starving (featuring Zedd)” takes #29.
