RECORD ‘ROAR’: As it spends a second week atop Mainstream Top 40, Katy Perry’s “Roar” rises 2-1 in its seventh week on Adult Top 40. The coronation grants Perry two
historic milestones. “Roar” marks Perry’s eighth Adult Top 40 No. 1, tying her with Maroon 5 and P!nk for the most leaders in the chart’s archives. The seven-week ascent, meanwhile, marks the fastest to the Adult Top 40 summit since the survey first appeared in Billboard magazine the week of March 16, 1996. Four songs in that span had previously reached No. 1 in as few as eight weeks, most recently Per- ry’s “California Gurls” in 2010. “Roar” concurrently becomes Perry’s sixth top 10 on Rhythmic (13-8).
As Capital Cities’ “Safe and Sound” lifts 4-2, Capitol monopolizes the top two spots on Adult Top 40 for the first time. With the songs at the same ranks, respectively, Capitol earned the same honor for the first time last week on Mainstream Top 40; the tracks hold their spots on the chart for a sec- ond frame.

She'll own the record by herself (again) this era.

Pretty good for an artist who makes "childish music"!
