Billboard Hot 100 (Issue Date: September 1, 2012)





Taylor Swift finally tops the Billboard Hot 100 as her new single We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together zooms #72-#1 on this week's chart. The big chart jump is fueled by its astonishing 623k sales! Before We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together, Swift's highest charting songs were You Belong With Me and If Today Was a Fairy Tale which peaked at #2. This is Swift's 11th top 10 hit. Meanwhile, last week's #1 Flo Rida's Whistle drops to #2 and former #1 contender Ellie Goulding's Lights drops to #3.

There are two other songs breaking in the top 10 this week: Justin Bieber claims his 4th top 10 with As Long As You Love Me (up #12-#8) and Maroon Five bag its 6th top 10 with One More Night (up #15-#9). Maroon Five has two songs in the top 10 as Payphone descends #5-#7 on its 18th week on the chart. Dropping out of the 10 this week after 24 weeks is the #1 smash Somebody That I Used to Know by Gotye feat Kimbra which slips #6-#11 this week.

Going recurren this week are Justin Bieber's Boyfriend (peak:2, 20 weeks) and One Direction's One Thing (peak:39, 20 weeks). fun's We Are Young and Kelly Clarkson's Stronger still share the the longevity honors as both hold on this week's chart for a 35th week.
