“We are excited but humbled,” wrote the band in a Tweet about the achievement.<\/p>\n

The cover of The Cranberries classic holds that pinnacle position as of press time at 12:20PM ET.<\/p>\n

Zedd, Maren Morris & Grey’s “The Middle” follows at #2, while Kelly Clarkson & Hoda Kotb’s “I’ve Loved You Since Forever” occupies the #3 position.<\/p>\n

Drake’s “God’s Plan” (#4) and Bebe Rexha’s “Meant To Be (featuring Florida Georgia Line)” (#5) complete the Top 5.<\/p>\n
