Two songs debut on this week’s edition of the Mediabase hot adult contemporary radio chart.
Both songs start well within the Top 40.
James Bay’s “Wild Love,” the first of the debuts, takes #24.
The song, which was below last week’s chart at #24, received 862 spins during the February 11-17 tracking period. This week’s count tops last week’s mark by 736 spins.
That gain of 736 represents the Hot AC format’s top increase this week.
Below last week’s chart at #42, Kelly Clarkson’s “I Don’t Think About You” meanwhile debuts at #30. It received 577 tracking period plays (+325).
