SPOTIFY STANDINGS: FLYING "BEATLES"

In tandem with the sensational response to those ongoing viral Mannequin Challenge videos, Rae Sremmurd's "Black Beatles" (Eardruma/Interscope) soars to #1 on Spotify's U.S. Top 200. Meanwhile, The Chainsmokers f/Halsey's summer smash, "Closer" (Disruptor/Columbia), holds at the top of the global chart for an 11th week, and James Arthur's "Say You Won't Let Go" (SYCO) remains #1 in the U.K. for a second consecutive (and third non-consecutive) week.

It's also worth noting that "Black Beatles" made its global Top 10 debut at #9 this week, and U.K. chart-topper "Say You Won't Let Go" appeared there at #7.

Then there's Maroon 5's latest single, "Don't Wanna Know" (222/Interscope), which debuted in the U.K. Top 10 at #6, while it went #6-4 on the global chart and #9-8 in the U.S.

As for Atlantic U.K., the company's Clean Bandit jumped #9-2 across the pond with the the very recently released buzz track, "Rockabye."
