Billboard Hot 100 (Issue Date: August 25, 2012)



After nine weeks, Carly Rae Jepsen's Call Me Maybe is finally out of the top spot on the Billboard Hot 100 as Flo Rida's Whistle jumps #3 to #1 this week. This is Flo Rida's 3rd #1 after 2008's Low (10 weeks) and 2009's Right Round (6 weeks). Ellie Goulding's Lights stays at #2 while former #1 Call Me Maybe drops to #3.

Meanwhile, fun. is officially out of the one hit wonder stigma as Some Nights, their follow up to thei#1 smash We Are Young, ascends #11-#8 this week. Current American Idol champ Phillip Phillips Home holds at #9 for a second week after receiving a major digital sales push when the song was featured in the recently concluded London Olympics.

Maroon Five's second single from Overexposed, One More Night leaps #30-#15 this week and will likely reach the top 10 following the success of the first single Payphone which has been inside the top 5 since its #3 debut 17 weeks ago but was blocked by Call Me Maybe for the top spot.

Songs reaching new peaks are Justin Bieber's As Long As You Love Me (#15-#12), Demi Lovato's Give Your Heart a Break (up #18-16) and Neon Trees' Everybody Talks (#19-#17).

This week's top debut is from Mumford & Sons with I Will Wait, the first single from their upcoming album, enters the chart at #23. This is already the act's highest peaking single surpassing the Grammy-nominated single The Cave's #27 peak. Also new this week is Taylor Swift's We Are Never Getting Back Together which is currently on top of US iTunes and will likel end up in the top 3 next week. Could this be Swift's 1st ever #1 hit? Let's wait and see.

The oldest songs on the chart are fun.s' We Are Young and Kelly Clarkson's Stronger with 34 weeks. Exiting the chart this week and going recurrent are Calvin Harris' Feel So Close (peak: 12 / 27 weeks) and Karmin's Brokenhearted (peak:16 /22 weeks).
