Niall Horan’s “Too Much To Ask,” Lauv’s “I Like Me Better” Enter Top 40 At Pop Radio

“Too Much To Ask” and “I Like Me Better” officially enter the Top 40 at pop.

Last week, Niall Horan’s “Too Much To Ask” improved to #41 at pop radio.

This week, it moves comfortably into the Top 40.

Played 1,736 times during the October 15-21 tracking period (+840), the new “Flicker” single earns #33 on this week’s Mediabase pop chart.

“I Like Me Better” also enters the Top 40 this week.

Up three places, it earns #39 on the strength of its 951 tracking period plays (+189).

— “Too Much To Ask” is the follow-up to Horan’s “Slow Hands,” which reached #1 at pop radio. He previously had a Top 15 hit in “This Town” (and, of course, several chart entries as part of One Direction).

“I Like Me Better” is Lauv’s first song to reach the Top 40.
