Niall Horan’s “This Town” Heading Top 5 At Hot AC Radio

While it no longer appears on the active pop radio chart, Niall Horan’s “This Town” continues to climb at hot adult contemporary radio.

It is set to earn a Top 5 position on this week’s Mediabase Hot AC listing.

“This Town” received 4,388 spins during the first six days of the March 5-11 tracking week. Up 4.1% from the count at this point last week, the tally slots “This Town” at #5 on Mediabase’s building chart.

Horan’s single faces no imminent threat from below and should thus have no trouble staying in the Top 5 through the close of tracking.

“This Town” is Horan’s debut solo single. He previously reached Hot AC’s Top 5 as part of One Direction’s “Story Of My Life” and “What Makes You Beautiful.”
