Ed Sheeran’s new “Shape Of You” predictably claims the top spot on this week’s Mediabase hot adult contemporary add board.
The new single was added by a whopping 81 Mediabase-monitored Hot AC stations this week.
The count is nearly seven times that of the next-most added song.
OneRepublic’s “Let’s Hurt Tonight,” that song, was picked up by 12 stations this week.
Shawn Mendes’ “Mercy” takes third with 9 adds, while an add count of 6 slots The Weeknd’s “I Feel It Coming (featuring Daft Punk)” in fourth place.
Picked up by another 5 stations, Kelly Clarkson’s “It’s Quiet Uptown” registers as fifth-most added. Ariana Grande’s “Side To Side (featuring Nicki Minaj)” lands in sixth with 4 adds.
With 3 adds each, Alessia Cara’s “Scars To Your Beautiful,” Bebe Rexha’s “I Got You,” Calum Scott’s “Dancing On My Own,” Clean Bandit’s “Rockabye (featuring Sean Paul & Anne-Marie),” and John Legend’s “Love Me Now” tie for seventh.
