Ed Sheeran’s “Shape Of You” Pacing For 7th Week As Pop Radio’s #1 Song

Ed Sheeran [CBS]

Ed Sheeran’s “Shape Of You” is set to extend its pop radio reign to seven weeks.

The global smash received 8,359 pop radio spins during the first three days of the March 26-April 1 tracking week. Up 2.1% from the count at the same time last week, the tally positions “Shape Of You” as a comfortable #1 on Mediabase’s building pop chart.

The single faces no imminent threat from below and it is thus a lock to retain its #1 position through the close of tracking.

“Shape Of You” is meanwhile set to top a sixth straight Mediabase hot adult contemporary airplay chart.
