Ed Sheeran’s “Shape Of You” tops a sixth straight Mediabase pop radio airplay chart.
The smash hit received a format-leading ~19,428 spins during the March 19-25 tracking week. Up 469 from last week’s count, the tally tops that of the #2 song by over 1900 spins.
“Shape Of You” has only been on the chart for twelve total weeks, which means it has spent half its run at #1.
ZAYN & Taylor Swift’s “I Don’t Wanna Live Forever,” that #2 song, received ~17,475 spins during the official tracking period (-1,113).
The Weeknd’s “I Feel It Coming” rises one spot to #3 with ~14,949 spins (+96), while Rihanna’s “Love On The Brain” falls to #4 with ~13,694 (-1,520).
Credited with ~13,692 tracking period plays (+2,135), Bruno Mars’ “That’s What I Like” rises one spot to #5.
