TMN Hot 100 Fast Facts: P!NK can do no wrong, Charlie Puth is setting new PBs
P!NK can do no wrong
It’s no surprise that Hot 100 heavyweight P!NK issmashing radio this week. Both ‘What About Us’ and ‘Beautiful Trauma’ make ground at #3 and #4 respectively.P!NK is the first artist since Ed Sheeran to have two singles in the Top 5, when ‘Shape Of You’ and ‘Castle On The Hill’ were both seen in the bracket back in March.
Charlie Puth is setting new PBs in 2017
After blowing radio away with his track ‘How Long’ last month, Charlie Puth is setting more milestones. ‘How Long’ now marks Puth’s highest performing single on the chart since 2016’s ‘We Don’t Talk Anymore’ ft. Selena Gomez. It’s alsohas done what the producer’s previous single ‘Attention’ could never do. After flirting on the precipice of the Top 10 for weeks, ‘Attention’ only got as high as #12 and failed to break the coveted Top 10.
Good things come in threes
Rita Ora is having a stellar year. ‘Your Song’ is still Ora’s highest placing Hot 100 single ever (despite being down on last week) and has spent 18 weeks inside the Top 20 since its debut in June. Along with an appearance on Avicii’s latest single ‘Lonely Together’ (#50), new single ‘Anywhere’ is eyeing a Top 10 berth as it moves up to #33 on its second week in the chart. Will it have enough to eclipse ‘Your Song’’s charting peak?
