Over on the Digital Songs chart, Taylor Swift rests at No. 1 for a second week with "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together," selling 307,000 downloads (down 51%). A second-week drop from its whopping 623,000-start was likely inevitable, but the 307,000 figure is still one of the 20 biggest sales weeks of 2012.

Maroon 5's "One More Night" skips 4-2 with 195,000 (up 15%), Flo Rida's "Whistle" drops 2-3 with 180,000 (down 10%), and fun.'s "Some Nights" slips 3-4 with 169,000 (down 7%).

Owl City & Carly Rae Jepsen's "Good Time" rises 8-5 with 144,000 (up 13%) while Bieber's "As Long As You Love Me" (featuring Big Sean) holds at No. 6 with 144,000 (up 13%). Jepsen's own "Call Me Maybe" is also steady at No. 7 with 122,000 (down 10%) while Phillip Phillips' "Home" is down 5-8 with 109,000 (down 33%).

Cher Lloyd's "Want U Back" is stationary at No. 9 with 107,000 (down 14%) while Neon Trees hit the top 10 for the first time, as "Everybody Talks" jumps 15-10 with 99,000 (up 10%). For the latter tune, it also breaks into the top 10 on the Mainstream Top 40 airplay chart (known as Pop Songs on Billboard.com), rising 11-8.

Taylor Swift's "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" logs a second week at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, while Owl City and Carly Rae Jepsen's collaboration "Good Time" reaches the top 10.*

Swift stays at the summit, with digital sales for "Never" dropping significantly, a contrast to the song's strong airplay gains. "Never" spends a second week at No. 1 on the Hot Digital Songs chart with 307,000 downloads sold, according to Nielsen SoundScan, a 51% slide from its debut on the list last week with sales of 623,000, an opening-week sum that marked the best for a song by a woman in SoundScan history. In its first two weeks of digital availability, "Never" has sold 930,000 downloads.*

Such a drop-off in second-week digital sales is typical for titles that make monstrous first-week splashes. Even with its decline, "Never" becomes one of just five songs this year to sell more than 300,000 downloads in multiple weeks. fun.'s "We Are Young" (featuring Janelle Monae) tallied seven such weeks; Gotye's "Somebody That I Used to Know" (featuring Kimbra), six; and, LMFAO's "Sexy and I Know It" and Maroon 5's "Payphone" (featuring Wiz Khalifa), two each.

Radio airplay, meanwhile, continues to swell for "Never," which wins the Hot 100's top Airplay Gainer ribbon, lifting 14-13 in its third week on the Hot 100 Airplay chart (67 million all-format audience impressions, up 30%, according to Nielsen BDS). The song is the greatest gainer on Mainstream Top 40 (18-16, up 27%) and Adult Top 40 (21-18, up 32%), although it drops 13-19 on Hot Country Songs (down 30%). Clear Channel Media and Entertainment-owned stations, a majority of them country-formatted, aided the song's radio debut with intense airplay on Aug. 6-7; following the specialty spins, plays on those country stations largely regressed, spurring the song's slip on Hot Country Songs.

"Never," the lead single from Swift's fourth studio album, Red, due Oct. 22 on Big Machine Records, has not yet been made available to streaming services that also contribute to the Hot 100's data pool. Thus, it does not yet rank on the On-Demand Songs streaming chart.*

Although sales for "Never" more than halve, the song still claims the Hot 100's top spot over Flo Rida's former one-week No. 1 "Whistle." ("Never" decreases by 41% on overall Hot 100 points, while "Whistle" slides by only 2%). "Whistle" holds at No. 2, climbing 8-5 on Hot 100 Airplay (81 million, up 10%). It falls 2-3 on Hot Digital Songs (180,000, down 10%), although it passes 2 million in sales to-date. On On-Demand Songs, it rises 3-2 (771,000 on-demand streams, down less than 1%, according to BDS).*

Ellie Goulding's "Lights" (3-3) makes it a static top three on the Hot 100, while Maroon 5's "One More Night" charges 9-4 with the chart's top Digital Gainer award for a third consecutive week. The song jumps 4-2 on Hot Digital Songs (195,000, up 26%), 25-16 on Hot 100 Airplay (50 million, up 25%) and 28-19 on On-Demand Songs (415,000, up 20%).

fun.'s "Some Nights" jumps 6-5 on the Hot 100 with gains on Hot 100 Airplay (19-14; 52 million, up 14%) and On-Demand Songs (5-4; 739,000, up 6%). On Hot Digital Songs, it drops 3-4 (169,000, down 7%).*

Carly Rae Jepsen's former nine-week Hot 100 No. 1 "Call Me Maybe" drops 4-6; Katy Perry's No. 2-peaking "Wide Awake" falls 5-7; and, Maroon 5's fellow No. 2-peaking "Payphone" descends 7-8.*

Jepsen concurrently adds her second Hot 100 top 10 in as many chart appearances, as "Good Time," with Owl City, climbs 13-9 with top Streaming Gainer honors. The duet bounds 16-10 on On-Demand Songs (509,000, up 19%), while pushing 8-5 on Hot Digital Songs (144,000, up 13%) and 17-15 on Hot 100 Airplay (51 million, up 10%). Its latest sales frame pushes it past 1 million downloads sold to-date.*

Jepsen and Owl City (AKA Adam Young) each notch their second Hot 100 top 10s. With "Good Time" following "Maybe," Jepsen is the first woman to send her first two entries as a lead act on the chart to the top 10 since Ke$ha arrived with the nine-week No. 1 "TiK ToK" and the No. 7 hit "Blah Blah Blah" (featuring 3OH!3) in 2009-10. Including featured billings, Jepsen joins Sia, whose first two Hot 100 appearances this year, both in guest roles, have reached the top 10. Flo Rida's "Wild Ones" rose to No. 5 in May and David Guetta's "Titanium" peaked at No. 7 in July; Sia sings the chorus in each track.*

Owl City returns to the Hot 100's top 10 after debut single "Fireflies" spent two weeks at No. 1 in November 2009.*

Justin Bieber rounds out the Hot 100's top bracket, as "As Long as You Love Me" (featuring Big Sean) retreats 8-10. Although it declines by 9% in sales to 131,000 (holding at No. 6 on Hot Digital Songs), the song again bullets at No. 9 on On-Demand Songs (595,000, up 7%) and lifts 18-17 on Hot 100 Airplay (50 million, up 8%).

Likely, she has a lead over 100k in sales, however I don't know how big is the gap in streaming.

Nikko

I think 'Whistle' may be #1 again on Hot 100.

Let's hope Taylor's sales were good enough to hold her atop for another week.

Difference is big enough I think.. Taylor has it or at least it seems like it..

if anyone has the total sales for the current T10, please post

Taylor platinum next week

Junlin

I hope Taylor still be #1.

If we look the points because of Airplay + Sales only:

1. We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together: 307 + 72 = 379
2. Whistle: 180 + 82 = 262

Taylor will most probably get it. I don't think streaming is that big of a factor for whistle to overtake Taylor song.
