Maroon 5 notches its third No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, as “One More Night” lifts 2-1 in its lucky 13th week on the chart. P!nk and fun., meanwhile, top the Radio Songs and On-Demand Songs charts, respectively.
Maroon 5 had previously reigned with “Makes Me Wonder” for three weeks in 2007 and with “Moves Like Jagger,” featuring Christina Aguilera, for four weeks last year. The latter song sprang from the band’s lead singer, Adam Levine, and Aguilera, having collaborated while serving as coaches during the 2011 maiden season of NBC’s singing competition “The Voice.”
Despite spending its first 19 weeks in the Hot 100’s top 10, Maroon 5’s previous single, “Payphone,” featuring Wiz Khalifa, just missed the summit, having spent six weeks peaking at No. 2. It ranks at No. 15 this week.
“Night” moves to the Hot 100’s pinnacle with top Airplay Gainer honors, fueled by an 11-5 surge on Radio Songs (84 million audience impressions, up 17%, according to Nielsen BDS) and an 8-4 charge on On-Demand Songs (705,000 on-demand streams, up 16%, according to BDS). It holds at No. 3 on Digital Songs with a 2% decline to 192,000 downloads sold in the chart’s tracking week, according to Nielsen SoundScan. It’s sold 1.4 million since its release.
“‘Night” unseats last week’s Hot 100 leader, Taylor Swift’s “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together” (1-2), as the former title logs a 6% gain in overall chart points, while the latter decreases by 11%. Still, “Never” lands a fifth consecutive week atop Digital Songs (226,000, down 20%) and advances 7-6 on Radio Songs (83 million, up 8%).
