This week we say goodbye to "Wonder" by Shawn Mendes and Maren Morris finally ends her 79-week run with her former #1 hit "The Bones". "Circles" by Post Malone now takes the title of the oldest song on AT40, with 66 weeks so far.

Jason Derulo enters at #39 with "Take You Dancing". Ed Sheeran scores the highest debut at #15 with "Afterglow". It's the highest debut since "ME!" by Taylor Swift and Brendon Urie back in May 2019. Ed Sheeran's last #1 was "I Don't Care" back in 2019. Can this accomplish the same feat? Find out in the weeks to come!

Speaking of Taylor Swift, she rushes up 9 spots to #19 with "willow", our fastest rise of the week.

Kane Brown, Khalid, and Swae Lee tumble 10 spots to #24 with "Be Like That", the biggest fall of the week. We also saw "Break My Heart" by Dua Lipa drop 5 to #26 and Zoe Wees seems to be losing a lot of "Control" on the charts as she collapses down 6 spots to #30.

Jawsh 685 and Jason Derulo climb back up to #3 with "Savage Love (Laxed-Siren Beat)". The Weeknd stays put at #2 with "Blinding Lights". And Ava Max scores a 5th week at #1 with "Kings & Queens"!
