Thanks to the market level song data we look at daily at Radio Station Consultant we’re able to see exactly what songs are connecting with audiences overall, in all radio formats and in individual markets. This data helps us decide which songs our clients should add each week and which songs they shouldn’t. Out of this week’s data here are a few of the songs that topped those lists nationally in the US and Canada along with a few random specific markets. When you see a song that’s not brand new coming in at number one that tells you it’s still, as of this week, outperforming all new songs within that format in that region.
