SALES UPDATE:
TOP 10 TRACKS

RCA’s Walk the Moon (+5% week over week) aren’t the only newcomers moving up the leaderboard—or the only contenders for song of the summer. Look at the moves made by S-Curve Hollywood’s Andy Grammer (#8-3, +35%), Columbia’s Rachel Platten (#21-9, +67%) and Capitol Nashville’s Little Big Town (#13-10, +13%.

  1. Wiz Khalifa f/Charlie Pluth, “See You Again” – 229k
  2. Walk the Moon, “Shut Up + Dance” – 142k
  3. Andy Grammer, “Honey I’m Good” – 126k
  4. Petty Wap, “Trap Queen” – 113k
  5. David Guetta f/Nicki Minaj & Afrojack, “Hey Mama” – 99k
  6. Jason Derulo, “Want to Want Me” – 102k
  7. The Weeknd, “Earned It (Fifty Shades of Grey)” – 88k
  8. T-Wayne, “Nasty Freestyle” – 87.3k
  9. Rachel Platten, “Fight Song” – 86.9k
  10. Little Big Town, “Girl Crush” – 85k

In the next group, Tove Lo’s latest, “Talking Body” (Island), continues its flirtation with the Top 10, selling nearly 84k on another uptick, this one 7%.
