The Japanese pop phenomenon AKB 48 lands the 19th no.1 on the Global Track Chart, 'Green Flash' bows there with 480.000 points and ends (or interrupts?) the 12 week reign of 'Uptown Funk!' by Mark Ronson feat. Bruno Mars. In the 60 year history of the Global Chart only three acts had more no.1 smashes: Madonna and Elvis Presley, each with 22 number one hits and the Beatles with 21. 'Uptown Funk!' slides down at no.2 and gets 462.000 points, an 8% decline compared to the previous week and now with a total 7.835.000 points. Rounds out the top three is Ellie Goulding's 'Love Me Like You Do', which becomes another 411.000 points (down 5%), a total of 2.259.000 points after seven weeks on the tally. Despite it fall at no.3, there's still a little chance that 'Love Me Like You Do' will be no.1 in the next time. Most recent example for the excellent British pop music is 'King' by the Electronica trio Years & Years, the band with the 24 year-old, charismatic actor and singer Olly Alexander. 'King' is the brandnew no.1 in United Kingdom with 92.000 download sales. Globally it arrives at no.24 with 100.000 points. There are two new songs on our ALL TIME CHART, because both broke through the 6 million border. 'Take Me Church' by Hozier bows at no.365 with a total of 6.041.000 points and 'Thinking Out Loud' by Ed Sheeran opens at no.340 with 6.222.000 points. Outside our weekly Top 40 waiting among other Nick Jonas' 'Chains' at no.49, Sam Smith & John Legend's 'Lay Me Down' at no.55, Empire Cast feat. Jussie Smollett & Yazz' 'You're So Beautiful' at no.56, and Sam Hunt's 'Take Your Time' at no.59 for their first appearance on the big list.
