Top 5 Songs for Week Ending March 7

We’re uncovering the five most popular songs in the Billboard1 Hot 100 pop singles chart, for the week ending March 7, 2015.

We’re settling into a comfortable routine in which one new song appears every week. We can live with that…how about you?

Hozier is starting to slip on the Top Five, as his triple-platinum smash “Take Me To Church” drops two slots to number five. He’s following it with a new single, “Someone New,” which features actress Natalie Dormer in the video. You’ve seen her in several big movies and TV series, including Game Of Thrones. She plays Margaery Tyrell.

Maroon2 5 rebounds3 a slot to fourth place with “Sugar.” Adam Levine and company are on the North American leg of a world tour, which sees them on the road well into September. Joining them through mid-June is MAGIC! You probably remember them from last year, when they topped the chart for six weeks with “Rude.”

Here’s your new entry: Ellie Goulding jumps three slots to third place with “Love Me Like You Do" from the Fifty Shades Of Grey soundtrack. Not only has it topped the singles chart for a fourth week in the U.K., it broke the streaming record previously4 held by “Uptown Funk.” Well done, Ellie.

Ed Sheeran remains5 stuck in the runner-up slot with “Thinking Out Loud.” On March 23, Ed will be among several star acts premiering new videos at the YouTube Music Awards. After taking a year off, the ceremony returns with a revised format6: it gets back to basics by treating us to nine videos from the award winners.

Up at number one we have Mark Ronson and Bruno Mars…that makes eight weeks and counting for “Uptown Funk.” Or should we say the award-winning “Uptown Funk?”  On February 25, Mark collected a BRIT Award for Best British Single. He says it was a pleasant surprise, because he didn’t think the song was released during the eligibility7 period. It was…and he’s the champ.

Who will rule the roost next week? Join us in seven days and we'll tell all.
