Pink has been one of the most durable pop stars of the past 13 years, pumping out hit after hit, 18 of them making the top 20.
She sings with passion and pain no matter what the topic. Her vulnerability is her strength.
Her 18th is "Just Give Me a Reason," another pop gem that is a duet with the lead singer of Fun Nate Ruess. It's also the most played song on Atlanta radio this past week with 258 spins on four radio stations. The count: 12 spins from B98.5, 43 from Star 94, a whopping 126 from Power 96.1 and another 77 from Q100.
Her single leapfrog's Rihanna's "Stay," which is at 243 spins, with comparable spin counts at Star, Power and Q100 but not given any love yet from B98.5.
Pink upends Bruno Mars' two-week stay at the top with "When I Was Your Man." And previous No.1 song Justin Timberlake's "Suit & Tie" took a massive tumble in one week, losing 114 spins, falling from 2 to 4. (It's the only song heard on seven different stations in the market, showing his crossover appeal.)
Here's the top 10 for the week
1. Pink "Just Give Me a Reason"
2. Rihanna "Stay"
3. Bruno Mars " When I Was Your Man"
4. Justin Timberlake "Suit & Tie"
5. Maroon 5 "Daylight"
