Two weeks ago, Shawn Mendes’ “Mercy” reached the Top 10 at pop radio.
This week, it joins that portion of the Mediabase hot adult contemporary airplay chart.
Up two places, “Mercy” takes #10 on the strength of its 3,299 tracking period plays (+213).
As Shawn Mendes’ single moves into the Top 10, Katy Perry’s “Chained “To The Rhythm (featuring Skip Marley)” joins the Top 15.
Played 2,816 times during the February 12-18 tracking week (+1,552), “Chained” rises eleven spots to #12.
Its week-over-week increase of 1,552 represents the Hot AC format’s greatest weekly airplay gain.
