Adele's 'Hello' Leads Hot 100 for Fifth Week Above Justin Bieber, Meghan Trainor and Drake

Adele : new album 25

Adele : Hello

"Hello" holds at No. 1 for a fifth week thanks to its domination over streaming services and radio. The massive hit song topped streams with 35.5 million plays this week and led radio play with 163 million audience impressions, thanks to its crossover appeal, Billboard reports. The only arena in which Adele doesn't dominate with "Hello?" Sales. The song slipped to No. 2 this week with 112,000 copies sold. But still, that's far from shabby.

Beneath the Adele juggernaut, the top three songs in the country stay the same this week. Bieber's "Sorry" and Drake's "Hotline Bling" hold at Nos. 2 and 3, respectively. Bieber was able to surpass Adele in sales, with 178,000 copies sold of "Sorry" thanks to his rain-soaked performance at the 2015 American Music Awards.

Speaking of Bieber, just like last week he has three songs in the top 10 of the Hot 100. His lead Purpose single "What Do You Mean?" rises mildly to No. 4 (also thanks to the AMAs) and his album standout track "Love Yourself" hangs in the top 10 at No. 7 after debuting huge at No. 4. The success of "Love Yourself" comes even as the song is not an official single.

Bieber wasn't the only singer to a get a little bump from the AMAs. The Weeknd, who performed "The Hills" saw his former chart-topped bump back up one spot at No. 5. The biggest gainer at the AMAs, however, seems to have been Meghan Trainor. Her John Legend collaboration "Like I'm Gonna Lose You" surges back up three spots from No. 11 to No. 8 thanks to her AMAs gig. Before she made headlines by making out with Charlie Puth, she sang this ballad, giving the months-old single yet another new breath of life.

Trainor's re-entry into the top 10 is the only "new" appearance in the top 10 this week. Other singles remain familiar. Shawn Mendes' "Stitches" gets a small bump to No. 6 as "Love Yourself" slipped in position. Meanwhile, Fetty Wap continues to be a household name in the top 10 with "679" at No. 9 and Alessia Cara's breakout single "Here" rounds things out with a second week at No. 10.
