Most Added: Jess Glynne pipped by Malone, first past the Post again
‘Better Now’ is Australian radio’s Most Added song of the week, marking Post Malone’s second crown of the year and denying Jess Glynne her fairytale solo return to radio.
Nova set the tone for a tight race early, opting to playlist both singles across the board. However, Glynne missed critical adds from both KIIS stations which dented her chances of keeping pace.
Troye Sivan’s ‘Bloom’ was added to Hit Drive and Nova, with scattered support from metro Hit stations. KIIS instead chose to brush over Sivan in favour of older tracks from 5 Seconds Of Summer and Vance Joy.
The ARN-owned network did however play a part in determining fourth and fifth place. Julia Michaels’ ‘Jump’ ft. Trippie Redd received across the boards adds to both KIIS stations, bumping Michaels above Aussie newcomer Jordie Ireland.
TMN’s #1 Single To Radio, Ireland still managed to deliver a strong week with his song ‘One In A Million’ ft. Ava Hayz. The single received notable attention from Hit’s Ash London LIVE and Nova’s Smallzy’s Surgery.
