Katy Perry breaks a “Platinum Chart” record this week as her smash “Wide Awake” continues its domination on the chart for a third consecutive week. Perry’s “Wide Awake” is now the longest running #1 on the Chart’s history and makes Katy the artists with most weeks at #1 so far (5 weeks at #1). At #2 Rita Ora and her party anthem “How We Do (Party)” reaches a new peak. The Owl City and Carly Rea Jepsen collaboration titled “Good Time” remains in the top 3 in its second week, losing a spot though, while “Some Nights” by fun. is a non-mover at #4. Carly’s “Call Me Maybe” remains at #5 and Rihanna’s “Where Have You Been”flies 8-6 extending its longevity record (12 weeks now). Maroon 5’s “Payphone (ft. Wiz Khalifa)” steps back one spot at #7 with “Tulisa’s “Young” doing the same at #8. David Guetta’s “Titanium” featuring Sia is the hot shot debut of the week entering at #9. “Princess Of China” by Coldplay and Rihanna rounds the top 10 this week.
This week last year the #1 spot belonged to Katy Perry and her summer smash “Last Friday Night”
