Shazam Jumpers and Other Stuff to Point Your Phone at

K-Pop troupe 2NE1 is once again the week's biggest jumper, thanks to a ubiquitous Microsoft ad. The duet of Rhiannon Giddens (a new obsession in our office) and Iron & Wine on Parenthood also made big ripples, as did reggae star Sister Nancy's tune in The Interview. But the jump that disrupts the top of the rankings is the Rihanna-Kanye-Sir Paul sensation, which soars to #2 just as the threesome's Grammy performance is announced.

Among the noteworthy jumpers outside the Top 5 is the new one from Nick Jonas, "Chains," which moves up 27 places.

For more of what Americans are pointing their phones at, sortable by rank, artist and greatest gainers, go here. Next week's chart, incorporating the Super Bowl and all its commercials, should also be illuminating (see yesterday's piece about the game's top Shazamed moments here).

In the U.K., Rihanna and company soar a stunning 178 places to #6. You'll find the British chart here; for future refererence, you'll always find Shazam data under "The Vibe" tab in our top black menu bar.
