Hot 100: Ed Sheeran’s “Shape Of You” Stays #1; Lady Gaga Top 5, Big Sean #6

Last week, Ed Sheeran’s “Shape Of You” returned to #1 on the Billboard Hot 100.

This week, it keeps the throne.

Sheeran’s smash rules the all-encompassing songs chart for a second straight (and third total) week. It concurrently rises to #1 on the Radio Songs subchart and holds at #2 on Digital Song Sales and Streaming Songs.

Migos’ former #1 “Bad And Boujee (featuring Lil Uzi Vert)” keeps its #2 position on the Hot 100, while ZAYN & Taylor Swift’s “I Don’t Wanna Live Forever” remains #3.

The first big jump of the week comes at #4, where Lady Gaga’s “Million Reasons” re-enters the chart. The position represents a new peak for the song, which saw huge activity gains in the wake of her Super Bowl performance.

Machine Gun Kelly x Camila Cabello’s “Bad Things” drops one spot to #5, while Big Sean’s “Bounce Back” enjoys a nine-place jump to #6.

The Chainsmokers’ “Closer (featuring Halsey)” follows at #7, two places below last week’s position. Alessia Cara’s “Scars To Your Beautiful” (#8, +2), Maroon 5’s “Don’t Wanna Know” (#9, -3) and The Chainsmokers’ “Paris” (#10, +1) complete the Top 10.
