That feeling of happiness just won’t let up on the Hot 100 chart will it? For a ninth consecutive week , Pharrell Williams “Happy” holds the #1 spot and no one should be mad about it, even though it’s starting to get overplayed.

Other good news surrounding the chart this week is the arrival of Chris Brown and Justin Timberlake into the Top 10.

“Happy” also commands the Radio Songs and Digital Songs charts, tops Radio Songs for an eighth week, and earns 274,000 downloads.

It becomes just the sixth song to spend at least 10 weeks at #1 on Digital Songs and ties for the second-longest reign.

Pharrell becomes just the sixth solo male artist to spend a cumulative six months atop the Hot 100. Now up to 26 total weeks, thanks to “Happy,” Williams joins Usher (47 weeks), Michael Jackson (37), Elton John (34), Paul McCartney (30; not including his 59 weeks at No. 1 with the Beatles) and T.I. (28).

Justin Timberlake earns his 15th Top 10 Hot 100 hit, with “Not a Bad Thing” jumping to #8. This also marks the first Hot 100 top 10 from The 20/20 Experience (2 of 2) , as the set’s first two singles, “Take Back the Night” and “TKO,” peaked at #29 and #36, respectively.

Despite his current law issues, Chris Brown earns his 13th Hot 100 single as his Lil Wayne and French Montana or Too $hort or Tyga -assisted single “Loyal” jumps to #9.

The song was first released in two versions, the East Coast mix featuring French Montana and the West Coast edit featuring Too $hort.

When its video was released on March 24, Tyga was featured in the third verse, instead of either French Montana or Too $hort. All three versions feature Lil Wayne and are available digitally and on streaming services). Take a look at the full top 10 list below:
