Passenger spend a 2nd week at #1 as A Great Big World continues to try to close in. OneRepublic lost spins this week, so maybe they can overtake them soon.
The legends & modern legends continue to grow as George Michael makes his return to the chart after an 18 year absence. Michael has 3 #1 hits to his credit on the AC chart with "Kissing A Fool," "One More Try" and collaborating with Elton John on a live version of "Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me." For those keeping count, there are 5 acts on this week's chart who have been around for at least 20 years. The other of course are Cher, Elton John, Celine Dion & Mariah Carey. Hopefully we can graduate them from the bottom half of the chart someday.
Also for the 3rd week in a row, the chart sees 3 entries.
