The gorgeous “On Hold” by The xx knocks Rag’n’Bone Man’s “Human” off the #1 spot after a 3-week run. Rihanna climbs to #2 with her magnificent soulful throwback song “Love on the Brain.” “Heavydirtysoul” is in the Top 20 two years after “Tear In My Heart” made it’s debut, showing the astonishing staying power of twenty øne piløts’ brilliant album Blurryface. Run With It’s “I Need a Light” spends its 15th week in the Top 20, the longest-running song on this list. And the collaboration “Something Just Like This” by The Chainsmokers and Coldplay debuts at #20.

I just heard Rag n Bone Man. I really like that song. It’s been a huge hit in the U.K. Another blogging buddy (Ritu) had it in her blog.

I like Rihanna’s “Love On The Brain,” which surprises me because I don’t think of Rihanna as necessarily a good singer. That song is crying out for someone with a great voice to give it even more juice.
