Halsey’s “Without Me” and Ariana Grande’s “thank u, next” are #2 and #3, respectively, on this week’s Billboard Hot 100.<\/p>\n
They also occupy Top 5 positions on each of the component charts that help inform the overall Hot 100.<\/p>\n
“Without Me” appears at #2 on this week’s Digital Song Sales chart, #3 on this week’s Radio Songs chart and #3 on this week’s Streaming Songs chart.<\/p>\n
“thank u, next” is #5 for sales, #4 for streams and #4 for radio.<\/p>\n
“Without Me” and “thank u, next” are the only songs in the Top 5 for all three columns.<\/p>\n
The uppermost section of this week’s Hot 100 does, however, feature more “balanced hits” than has often been the case in recent months. Post Malone & Swae Lee’s “Sunflower,” the #1 song on the Hot 100, is in the #1 song for sales and streams and the #10 song for radio. Travi$ Scott’s “SICKO MODE” (#4 on the Hot 100) and Marshmello & Bastille’s “Happier” (#6 on the Hot 100) also appear in the Top 10 for all three components.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"“Without Me” and “thank u, next” embody the term “balanced hit.”","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":121575,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[1047],"tags":[692,4585,11776,11648],"adace-sponsor":[],"yoast_head":"\n
