While Taylor Swift’s “Blank Space” soars into the #1 position on the weekly pop radio airplay chart, it does so courtesy a dramatically reduced week-over-week spin gain.<\/p>\n
Its slowdown allows Selena Gomez’ sizzling “The Heart Wants What it Wants” to rank as the week’s greatest airplay gainer.<\/p>\n
According to Mediabase, Gomez’ “Heart” rockets into the #11 spot on the strength of the approximately 7,426 spins it received during the December 7-13 tracking week. That spin count comes via an approximate week-over-week gain of 1,519; no song enjoyed a boost so large.<\/p>\n
Sunday evening’s official update, which will provide an exact spin count, will cement the song’s #11 position.<\/p>\n
Other notable airplay gainers this week include Ariana Grande & The Weeknd’s #7 “Love Me Harder” (~11,287 total spins, +1,416), Mark Ronson’s #16 “Uptown Funk (featuring Bruno Mars)” (~6,478 total spins, +1,321), Hozier’s #10 “Take Me to Church” (~7,805 total spins, +1,304) and the aforementioned #1 “Blank Space” (~16,758 total spins, +1,208).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"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":[692,40,2505,3144,132,145,3166,791],"adace-sponsor":[],"yoast_head":"\n
