TOP 10 TRACKS: If you thought “Happy” had reached its apogee on the last weekly sales chart with a monumental 402k, you’ve got another think comin’, as the Pharrell mega-smash adds 11k to that total, blasting the track past the 2 million milestone, most of it coming in the last four weeks. That Oscar-nominated tune was one of two Top 10 entries to finish in positive territory; the other was the Oscar winner, Idina Menzel’s “Let It Go” (#7-5, +4%), the very mention of which will forever hereafter summon forth the specter of Adele Dazeem.
1. Pharrell Williams, “Happy” – 413k
2. Jason Derulo f/2 Chainz, “Talk Dirty” – 217k
3. Katy Perry f/Juicy J, “Dark Horse” – 212k
4. John Legend, “All of Me” – 198k
5. Idina Menzel, “Let It Go” – 130k
6. Bastille, “Pompeii” – 127k
7. Aloe Blacc, “The Man” – 120k
8. A Great Big World f/Xtina, “Say Something” – 110k
9. Lorde, “Team” – 101k
10. Pitbull f/Ke$ha, “Timber” – 95k
For the second week in a row, Beyoncé and hubby’s “Drunk in Love” just missed a slot on the leaderboard, finishing just 500 units below “Timber.” In the “look out below” category is The Chainsmokers' "Selfie,” which moved 54k digits in its second week on the chart and its final week on Dim Mak proper before getting picked up by Republic. A pair of RCA records also bear watching: Shakira f/Rihanna’s “Can’t Remember to Forget” did a turnaround with a 25% jump to 65k, taking it #28-15, and Justin Timberlake’s “Not a Bad Thing,” arguably the standout track on 20/20 2 of 2, bowed at #25 with 50k.
