Justin Bieber's 'Sorry' Leads Hot 100, Selena Gomez Hits Top Five

With a second week at No. 1, Bieber bests the one-week reign of his first leader, "What Do You Mean?" Plus, Gomez ties her highest Hot 100 rank with the rise of "Same Old Love."

As we do each week, let's run down the Hot 100's top 10, and beyond. (This week, due to the Martin Luther King, Jr. Day holiday, highlights of the airplay/sales/streaming-based Hot 100 post on Billboard.com today, with all charts to update tomorrow; normally, highlights and charts post each Monday and Tuesday, respectively.)

With its second week at No. 1, "Sorry," released on SchoolBoy/Raymond Braun/Def Jam, marks Bieber's longest Hot 100 reign of his two No. 1s so far. His prior single, and first Hot 100 topper, "What Do You Mean?," debuted at No. 1 on the Sept. 19 chart, representing its sole week at the summit. (Still, despite its lone week at No. 1, "Mean" has spent all of its 20 weeks in the top 10, dipping 8-10 this week.)

"Sorry" logs a fifth week at No. 1 on the Streaming Songs chart with 20.5 million U.S. streams, up 3 percent, and leads the subscription services-based On-Demand Songs chart for a ninth week (8.8 million on-demand streams, up 4 percent), according to Nielsen Music. It holds at its No. 2 high (for a sixth week) on Radio Songs (148 million audience impressions, up 1 percent), while slipping 3-4 on Digital Songs (92,000 downloads sold, down 28 percent, in the week ending Jan. 14); it led the sales ranking for a week in December.

David Bowie's 'Blackstar' Album Debuts at No. 1 on Billboard 200 Chart

Bieber additionally ranks at No. 3 on the Hot 100 as newest single "Love Yourself" holds at its peak, while notching a second week atop Digital Songs (147,000, down 11 percent). It lifts 3-2 on Streaming Songs (17 million, up 11 percent) and blasts 12-6 on Radio Songs (100 million, up 35 percent), good for the Hot 100's top Airplay Gainer award for a second week.

Two fun facts regarding the moves for "Love":

Streaming king: With "Sorry" and "Love" at Nos. 1 and 2 on Streaming Songs, respectively, Bieber is the first solo male to rank in the chart's top two simultaneously. He joins four other acts that have doubled up in the top two spots (since the chart's January 2013 inception): Iggy Azalea, for five weeks (although in a lead and featured role); Macklemore & Ryan Lewis (two weeks), Miley Cyrus and Meghan Trainor (one each).

Radio rise: "Love" becomes Bieber's sixth Radio Songs top 10, with four of them appearing on his current album Purpose (including "Where Are U Now," with Skrillex and Diplo, first released on their set Skrillex and Diplo Present Jack U).

Ask Billboard: How Historic Is Adele & Justin Bieber's Current Chart Domination?

As Bieber crowns the Hot 100 and remains at No. 3, Adele's "Hello," the lead single from her album 25, spends a second week at No. 2 after logging its first 10 weeks at No. 1. Still, it tallies a 10th week at No. 1 on Radio Songs (160 million, down 6 percent). The ballad is the first song to amass double-digit weeks atop the airplay chart since Mark Ronson's "Uptown Funk!" (featuring Bruno Mars) (12 weeks, beginning Feb. 7, 2015). It's the longest reign by a solo female since Rihanna's "We Found Love" (featuring Calvin Harris; 12 weeks, 2011-12).

"Hello" falls 2-3 on Digital Songs (92,000, down 34 percent) and Streaming Songs (16.1 million, down 1 percent) after previously leading the charts for seven weeks each.

Twenty One Pilots 'Mean So Many Things to So Many People,' Says Fueled by Ramen Exec (Exclusive Q&A)

Below Bieber and Adele on the Hot 100, Twenty One Pilots ascends 5-4 (hitting a new peak) with "Stressed Out." The single surges 4-2 on Digital Songs (121,000 sold, up 5 percent) and enters the top 10 on both Radio Songs (11-7; 92 million, up 22 percent) and Streaming Songs (13-9; 10 million, up 27 percent), adding top Streaming Gainer honors on the Hot 100. The duo's first top five Hot 100 hit concurrently leads Billboard's Hot Rock Songs chart for a fourth week.

Rounding out the Hot 100's top five, Selena Gomez ties her highest rank as "Same Old Love" rises 6-5. She first reached No. 5 with prior single "Good for You" (featuring A$AP Rocky) in October. (She's also peaked at No. 6 with "Come & Get It" in 2013 and "The Heart Wants What It Wants" in 2014.) As previously reported, "Same" hit No. 1 on the Pop Songs airplay chart last week; it stays at the list's top spot this week. Both "Good" and "Same" are from Gomez's album Revival, which debuted atop the Oct. 31 Billboard 200, becoming her second No. 1 album.

Capping the Hot 100's top 10, Alessia Cara's debut hit "Here" rises to a new peak (9-6) and becomes the new leader (2-1) on Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs; Drake's "Hotline Bling" drops 4-7, after reaching No. 2 (and dominates Hot Rap Songs for a 17th frame); Shawn Mendes' "Stitches" slips 7-8, after peaking at No. 4; and, above Bieber's "Mean" at No. 10, Meghan Trainor's "Like I'm Gonna Lose You," featuring John Legend, remains at No. 10 after rising to No. 8.

Back to that fact about Bieber's "Mean" spending its first 20 weeks on the Hot 100 in the top 10. If it can stay in the tier next week, it will tie the mark for most weeks a song has spent in the top 10 from its debut. The record belongs to two songs that each logged their first 21 frames in the region: Nicki Minaj's "Starships" (2012) and Maroon 5's "Sugar" (2015).

Meanwhile, among noteworthy action outside the Hot 100's top 10 this week, The Chainsmokers' "Roses," featuring ROZES, rises 13-11, while ruling the Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart for a fourth week; Bryson Tiller's "Don't" darts 17-13; and, two songs hit the top 20: G-Eazy and Bebe Rexha's "Me, Myself & I" (29-19) and Mendes and Camila Cabello's "I Know What You Did Last Summer" (22-20).

Points for top songs this week based on official data:

1 - Sorry - 92 - 148 - 20.5 = 45,200
2 - Hello - 92 - 160 - 16.1 = 41,500
3 - Love Yourself - 147 - 100 - 17.0 = 41,100
4 - Stressed Out - 121 - 92 - 10.0 = 30,400

Love Yourself came quite close to outranking Hello this week itself!

I'm going to go out on a limb and guess you've never been in a relationship and you're also probably not creative or artistically minded.

I'm actually 30 and married. But if I were to write an album I don't think it'd be about my ex-girlfriends.
Then again, I have nothing against non-personal songs if that's Adele's case. But with an album called "25" and being marketed as personal, it really seems like it's supposed to reflect her life and feelings around that time. Like she was calling the guy a thousand times when she was 25, not that she was reminiscing about that when she was 25. But it's clear people here didn't interpret it that way.

It probably takes years to call someone "a thousand times" so at age 25, she could be reminiscing about how she misses someone.

You can still be happily married and still miss specific moments from your past, even if that is a former relationship. The key with lyrics and themes is to not take them as literal, as you seem to be doing.

Wow, now I'm thinking that the battle between LY and SO is gonna be closer than I originally thought. While both are rising quickly on radio and streaming, it looks like the sales gap is closing. If Bieber's sales keep falling like they did this past week, I'm thinking that SO might have a slim shot at that #1. Bieber's lead right now is pretty big, but it's not exactly the 4 to 1 lead that Adele had a couple months ago (and even with that, Sorry eventually got its chance).

Also, wow did Drake just plummet. I was expecting him to slip past SO, but not past SOL and Here as well. I'm wondering if he'll be the one out of the top 10 next week rather than WDYM?

[Dylan :)]

Yes Selena and Meghan/John! Hopefully LIGLY can stay in the top 10 next week, as well as getting above Stitches and Hotline Bling. Very slim chances, but I hope it can somehow reach a new peak of #7 at some point.

Look at "Don't"!

Billboard Hot 100 Celebrates 3,000th Week of Charting the Hits

www.billboard.com/biz/articles/6844209/billboard-hot-100-celebrates-3000th-week-of-charting-the-hits

On Aug. 4, 1958, Billboard premiered the Billboard Hot 100, touting it as the "fastest, most complete and most sensitive index to the popularity of recorded music in America. This new chart feature, which each week will list the 100 most popular recorded sides, is a guide to potential, as well as the current hits."

It seems safe to say that the chart has caught on, as the latest list, dated Jan. 30, marks the 3,000th Hot 100 ever tabulated. (Shout-out to reader Jay Kibler for pointing out the anniversary in an email earlier this month.)

Since the Hot 100's start, approximately 26,400 songs have hit the chart, with roughly 12,100 of those reaching the top 40 and 4,600 rising to the top 10. 1,049 have hit No. 1. (So, about 1 of every 26 songs that debuts on the Hot 100 goes on to hit No. 1, historically.)

In honor of the milestone chart, let's run down 10 other key numbers from the Hot 100's 3,000-week history.

1,714: Total weeks that Lil Wayne has spent on the Hot 100 (combining the chart weeks of all his Hot 100 hits), the most of any act.

2.86: Average number of weeks at No. 1 for every Hot 100 leader, of the 1,049 total toppers (from the first, Ricky Nelson's "Poor Little Fool," to the current ruler, Justin Bieber's "Sorry").

207: The most entries any act has placed on the Hot 100. The cast of Fox's Glee holds the mark with 207, all logged between 2009 and 2013.

38: The most top 10 hits any act has placed on the Hot 100. Madonna's sum of 38 outpaces runners-up the Beatles' 34.

20: The most No. 1s any act has collected on the Hot 100, by the Beatles in 1964-70. The Fab Four reigned as the Hot 100's top act when Billboard tallied the chart's all-time top artists last year. Chubby Checker's "The Twist" rules as the Hot 100's all-time top song.

17: Most titles an artist has placed on the Hot 100 simultaneously. Bieber broke the mark of 14, held by the Beatles and Drake, on the Dec. 5, 2015 chart (as his album Purpose debuted atop the Billboard 200).

715: On April 15, 1972, aka, the 715th Hot 100, David Bowie made his debut on the chart, as "Changes" entered at No. 96. This week (2,285 charts later), the late icon debuts his latest Hot 100 hits, as "Lazarus" launches at No. 40 and "Blackstar" begins at No. 78.

2: Number of Hot 100 charted songs with "3000" in their titles. Brian Hyland's "3000 Miles" squeaked to a No. 99 peak in 1966 and Jonas Brothers' "Year 3000" hit No. 31 in (year) 2007.

1: Number of Hot 100 charted artists with "3000" in their names. Andre 3000 tallied six entries in 2008-12, rising as high as No. 24 in 2008 as a featured artist on John Legend's "Green Light."

And …

2035: The year the Hot 100 is set for its 4,000th chart. And, the more things change, the more things stay the same: the No. 1 song on the 1,000th Hot 100, dated Oct. 1, 1977? Meco's "Star Wars Theme/Cantina Band." Perhaps the 4,000th Hot 100 will boast another song from the film franchise that will still surely be going strong 19 years, and another 1,000 charts, from now.

Keep in mind that its streaming component is limited because it isn't on streaming services yet. All it has is the performance video on YT I believe.

[renfield75]

I was hoping the Bowie tracks would be higher but I'm glad that "Lazarus" snuck in a week at #40. It's better that it was a new song in the top 40 than one of his older hits that had already been there.

Adele isn't married but she has been with the same guy since 2011. Even though she is happily together with this guy and has a baby, that doesn't mean old feelings come up every once in a while. It's only human to feel that way. And just because she doesn't feel this way about an ex now, it doesn't mean that she didn't feel about him at that time. For example, I have been in a long term relationship for a long time now yet I can remember exactly how my first breakup made me feel or how it felt like to reconnect with them after the end of it. I think it's raw and honest of Adele to sing a song like Hello even though her life is different now.

Yeah, but the album is called 25, so it gives the impression these are songs about her life and her feelings around that time. So she had a newborn baby and a steady partner but her thoughts were on the ex-boyfriend she called a thousand times, on his new girl and stuff like that? Either she's really good at holding grudges or she chose to stick to the formula that had made her successful in the past, with these supposedly personal songs about failed relantionships.

Why are you singling out one song as representing the whole album, for one?

For another, I'd say it's pretty normal and even natural for people who are in a relationship to think about past relationships. This happens in real life, but you can also see some version of that concept in all kinds of movies, TV shows, etc. Whether it's healthy can be debated, but that is a separate topic from it being common. Separate from that, Adele has said "Hello" isn't necessarily about a romantic partner anyway. People have falling outs with lovers, friends, family, etc.

No, that is very surprising, because its airplay was getting 1mil+ updates every day, and it should have gotten at least a small boost in sales having one day in the iTunes top ten. Unless there was a drastic decrease in those video views and whatever other streaming would count, or the other top 40 songs somehow managed to stay above it in points, it seems that position might have been mistakenly listed as the same as last week.

[Linnethia Monique]

Lets just use this as comparison when it comes to streaming: Justin Bieber's Purpose totaled just under 43 million streams last week. Adele's 25 is at a little more than 6 million.

Actually, according to official estimates, When We Were Young dropped from ~42.5k sales to ~40k. In other words Thursday may have given it a boost, but it only staved off what would've been a bigger loss.

Radio gains are a little finicky when it comes to chart points. Yes, 6-7mil is a good boost, but often it's not enough to compensate for the other falling metrics, like sales above.

Streaming I dunno about but I imagine the lack of proper video and the proxy of a drop for Hello over time is eating away at its live videos.

If you look at the YouTube stream count a few pages back, the WWYW performance, the only real source of potential streams, has less than a million views. That's not enough make an impact on the chart position without a strong growth in sales to go with it. Why would it have necessariliy gotten a sales boost from 1 day in the top 10? If it was  down ~1k each day over the rest of the tracking week, being up ~6k 1 day by going top 10 would just even it out, not boost it.

Plus, WWWY does have a bullet.  It just wasn't able to move up due to other songs around it.  Consider Lazarus debuting above it and Hands to Myself leaping over it, that's 2 positions right there.  Streaming is a stronghold and/or advantage for the songs ranked above WWWY, so it doesn't surprise me that it didn't move up.

If "Hello" is top 10 in R&B Airplay, why isn't it charting on R&B Songs?

It's top 10 on R&B Airplay merely because it crossed over to urban radio, but it's really a pop song at core, so that's why it's not on R&B songs. (I personally don't think it belongs on R&B Songs, though obviously Billboard subjectively decides which songs go in which genre chart now so naturally there will be room for disagreement)

Yep.  And the reverse is also true... if a song is technically Rap (PSY's Gangnum Style), Billboard will categorize it as such on their genre chart despite it getting no Rap/HipHop airplay.

How did you reach that conclusion? Both "Hello" and "Sorry" reached #1 but "Hello" sold almost 3 times as much as "Sorry" and let's not start with the album sales. The exact same thing that happened in the US happened in Canada. "Hello" held back "Sorry" for 7 weeks and than "Sorry" took over but "Hello" is still sitting pretty at #2 after all these weeks.

I get what where he was coming from. Both Hello and Sorry have dominated the top 2 spots in both countries for the the past 12 weeks (apart from Sorry's second week when it fell a bit, am I right?). Sorry managed to take over the top spot from Hello quicker in Canada than in the US, 7 weeks against 10 weeks.

That doesn't mean I don't think the reasoning is flawed though. It was almost inevitable that Hello would fall of a bit faster than Sorry given how massively it sold in its first several weeks and how quickly it exploded on radio. Hello has still sold much, much more than Sorry has in Canada. 25's album sales in Canada are out of this world. No doubt Adele has had a huge impact in Canada even if Sorry managed to unseat Hello after "just" 7 weeks.
