Top 5 Songs for Week Ending Jan. 13


We're uncorking the five most popular songs in the Billboard 1 Hot 100 Pop Singles Chart, for the week ending Jan. 13, 2018.


We have no big changes for you this week, just a small re-arrangement.


Number 5: Imagine Dragons "Thunder"


It starts in fifth place, where Imagine Dragons rebounds 2 a slot with "Thunder." HBO Documentary Films has acquired the U.S. TV rights to lead singer Dan Reynolds' film about the Mormon Church and how it treats its LGBTQ members. Titled "Believer," the movie features two original songs. It premieres later this month at the Sundance Film Festival.


Number 4: G-Eazy "No Limit"


Lil Pump leaves us this week, while G-Eazy takes over fourth place with "No Limit," featuring A$AP Rocky and Cardi B. 


Last month, G-Eazy dropped his fourth studio album "The Beautiful & Damned," while also co-writing a short film about his life. The 24-minute film reflects the album's theme of duality: G-Eazy has achieved his dream of stardom, but is it everything he thought it would be?


Number 3: Camila Cabello Featuring Young Thug "Havana"


Camila Cabello has realized her dream of solo stardom, and it begins in earnest this week. On January 12, the former Fifth Harmony member releases her much-delayed debut 3 solo album, "Camila."


Young Thug is the only guest artist on the standard edition, while a special edition features a "Havana" remix featuring Daddy Yankee. Right now, Camila only has two confirmed concert dates on the way: a March 16 show in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and the following day in Santiago, Chile.


Number 2: Post Malone Featuring 21 Savage 4 "Rockstar"


Post Malone and 21 Savage remain in second place with their former champ "Rockstar." Post is currently touring Australia and New Zealand, while April finds him in Southern California at the huge Coachella Festival. Post's next album has yet to appear, but this week you can see him on TV. He's a guest on the "Ghost Adventures" show, airing on the Travel Channel.


Number 1: Ed Sheeran Duet with Beyonce "Perfect"


Ed Sheeran and Beyonce are as real as can be … and their combined star power rules the Hot 100 for a fourth week with "Perfect."


Apparently 5, Ed has a food obsession 6. The London Sun reports that Ed loves tomato ketchup 7 so much that he has an assistant carry a bottle wherever he goes. Ed's reportedly sick of high-end restaurants not carrying the popular condiment 8.


Thanks for spicing up our countdown today … let's do it again next week!
