That's weird how Adele is back at #1. It should have been Shawn Mendes or Meghan Trainor again at #1 instead.

If this were the Casey Kasem version of AT40 (or AT20 in this case), Shawn Mendes would be at #1. Now it's possible he could get screwed if Ellie Goulding goes to #1 next week.

I hope this doesn't happen. Shawn made it to #1 and deserves to be there. Ellie should be #1 next week going by what Mediabase was showing. I guess we'll see what happens next week.

AT40 has been running about two weeks behind the actual chart lately, so I would assume Stitches will be #1 next week, followed by Ellie Goulding

It seems that oldest song that spent 51 weeks in this AT40 HAC countdown is Walk the Moon - Shut Up and Dance. Though in Rick Dees countdown HAC and CHR still has Walk the Moon song, Rick Dees HAC spent 52 weeks. I'm beginning to think that is this a new record or any other song spent more than 50 weeks staying in chart?

Not even close! AT40 back in the mid to late "00's" would move a lot slower than this. I believe a song by Lifehouse, Santana's "Smooth" and a few others spent anywhere from 80 to 110+ weeks on the chart! But the chart moves considerably faster these days, so it has been awhile since we have seen a 1 year plus run. "Shut Up and Dance" definitely has been the biggest hit on this chart in several years.

I didn't know that. I haven't listened to any AT40 in mid 2000's for this.  But it is surprising that any song stayed in chart at least more than 100 weeks.
