Here is something good to celebrate: Katy Perry’s new single “Birthday” was the week’s most-added track at Top 40 radio.<\/p>\n
According to Mediabase, the newest release from Perry’s “PRISM” landed at 71 new Top 40 stations in conjunction with its official impact this week.<\/p>\n
Already #32 on the Top 40 airplay chart due to early station adds, Perry’s new tune is poised for a considerable presence at pop radio.<\/p>\n
After reigning as the format’s most-added track for two consecutive weeks, Ed Sheeran’s “Sing” slipped to number two this week. With 40 adds, however, the song remains relentless in its effort to conquer pop radio.<\/p>\n
“Tennis Court,” the newly impacting third single from Lorde’s “Pure Heroine,” ranked as the week’s third-most-added track. 32 pop stations decided they wanted to hear Lorde “talk it up like ‘yeah’.”<\/p>\n
Ellie Goulding’s “Beating Heart” and One Direction’s “You & I,” which both impacted the top 40 format this week, followed with 29 and 26 adds, respectively.<\/p>\n
Nico & Vinz’ breakthrough “Am I Wrong” picked up another 25 stations to rank as the week’s sixth-most-added track, while Iggy Azalea’s red-hot “Fancy (featuring Charli XCX)” followed with 21 adds. KONGOS’ “Come With Me Now” scored the same 21 pickups.<\/p>\n
