Shape of You in its 100th charting week over there...

[Naos]

All English songs:

Ed Sheeran - Shape of You

One OK Rock - Change

BTS - MIC Drop (ft. Desiigner)

One OK Rock - Wherever You Are

Keala Settle - This is Me

Zedd & Alessia Cara - Stay

Ariana Grande - No Tears Left to Cry

TWICE - I Want You Back (Jackson 5 cover)



Korean songs:

BTS - Fake Love

BTS - DNA

BTS - Don't Leave Me





U.S.A. by Da Pump never even hit #1. It getting that high and still being in the Top 10 is quite impressive.

Kenshi Yonezu (a guy who originally produced Hatsune Miku tracks) and TWICE (a K-pop group) are probably the top artists of the year.

Seeing Namie Amuro is cool given her retirement.

Speaking of which, "Shape of You" needs to die. Though, "Call Me Maybe" made the year-end list in 2016 so...
