TOP 10 TRACKS: Republic Nashville’s Florida Georgia Line has piled some “Dirt” between RCA’s Magic! and Capitol’s Sam Smith, as the Country-crossover duo’s debuting single interrupts (for the moment what had been a spirited tug of war for the top spot between the high-scoring rookies. The other compelling plotline in an otherwise static week is the continuing presence of two—count ’em, two—Ariana Grande tracks on the leaderboard, yet another reason for Republic’s Monte Lipman to flash his Colgate smile.

2. Florida Georgia Line, “Dirt” – 182k
3. Sam Smith, “Stay With Me” – 162k
4. Iggy Azalea f/Charli XCX, “Fancy” – 154k
5. Ariana Grande f/Iggy Azalea, “Problem” – 124k
6. Nico & Vinz, “Am I Wrong” – 111k

10. Ariana Grande f/Zedd, “Break Free” – 86k
Chugging upward is yet another OneRepublic single, “Love Runs Out” (Interscope), which moves #16-12 on a 15% increase to 82k. And here comes the Alt-crossover phenomenon “Come With Me Now” from Epic’s KONGOS, which is knocking on the door of the Top 20 (#24-21, 62k, +9%). Strike up the accordion! (7/17a)
