MAGIC! Holds Top Digital Downloads Spot with "Rude" while Sam Smith and Iggy Azalea Recover Spots

As fewer people acquire the music of MAGIC! by buying the band's debut album (which was released three weeks ago), the purchase of its hit single "Rude" has continued to add up. The track moved another 195,000 downloads and kept the no. 1 spot after the 6 percent increase in sales.

Last week's no. 2 track did not see the same continued success that MAGIC! had, however. Florida Georgia Line debuted big last week with its new single "Dirt," which moved 182,000 copies in its first week. That total dropped by 46 percent to 99,000 this week however, dropping the song down to no. 7 in the Top 10 of the Digital Downloads charts.

That drop left the door open for a few old favorites to move up a spot or two. Sam Smith slid back into the no. 2 spot with his "Stay With Me," which sold another 164,000 downloads, a slight rise from last week. Iggy Azalea received similar benefits as her track "Fancy" also rose one spot to no. 3 thanks to another 155,000 downloads purchased. Maroon 5 and "Maps" was the last band/song to benefit from Florida Georgia Line's drop, as the song rose to no. 6 despite just falling in sales (to 105,000 downloads).

One song wasn't really effected by "Dirt" falling one way or another: Ariana Grande and "Problem" stayed in the no. 5 spot, after selling 114,000 copies.

There is one new track in the Top 10 this week, and again it comes from 5 Seconds of Summer. "Everything I Didn't Say" is the sixth single released in conjunction with the band's debut, self-titled album (which dropped this week). The track sold 149,000 copies in its first week, but expect a drop off to coordinate with the album's release.

"Dirt" wasn't the only big dropper this week. Although Nico & Vinz is still a long way from that song's totals, "Am I Wrong" fell another 13 percent to 96,000 downloads, dropping to no. 8 on the charts. Billboard completely forgot to include the no. 9 song, although your best bet is that it was Charlie XCX's "Boom Clap" took the spot. Jason Derulo's "Wiggle" could have made a recovery and taken the spot as well. Either way, Sia's "Chandelier" definitely was no. 10, selling 83,000 downloads.
