Meghan Trainor’s “NO” Ranks As Pop Radio’s Most Added Song; Justin Bieber Follows

Meghan Trainor’s “NO,” which easily ranked as Hot AC radio’s most added song this week, achieves the same feat at the pop format.

The lead “Thank You” single received adds from 157 Mediabase-monitored pop stations this week. The mammoth add count is the fourth-greatest in Mediabase Top 40 history; only Taylor Swift’s “Wildest Dreams” (178), Justin Bieber’s “What Do You Mean?” (165) and Ariana Grande’s “Focus” (158) had bigger add weeks in the modern era.

Justin Bieber’s “Company,” the week’s second-most added song, generated an impressive level of weekly support in its own right. The fourth “Purpose” single received adds from 89 pop stations in conjunction with this week’s official impact.

Fifth Harmony’s “Work From Home (featuring Ty Dolla $ign),” which was last week’s most added song, takes #3 this week. It received 47 adds.

Taylor Swift’s “New Romantics” follows with 27 adds, while Lady Gaga’s “Til It Happens To You” earns fifth-most added on the strength of its 23 impact week pickups.

This week’s other notable pop options: Hailee Steinfeld’s “Rock Bottom (featuring DNCE)” (22 adds, 6th), Gwen Stefani’s “Make Me Like You” (21 adds, 7th), Lukas Graham’s “7 Years” (15 adds, 8th), Kelly Clarkson’s “Piece By Piece” (14 adds, 9th), Alessia Cara’s “Wild Things” (13 adds, 10th, tie), Halsey’s “Colors” (13 adds, 10th, tie), and Sia’s “Cheap Thrills (featuring Sean Paul)” (13 adds, 10th, tie).
