Other chart highlights for this week:

 

- Bruno Mars breaks his tie with Maroon 5 to become the act with the 2nd most weeks at #1 on Radio Songs in the 2010s as "Uptown Funk!" gives him his 26th week at the top spot of the overall airplay chart. It's also his 6th chart-topper, extending his record as the top male artist with the most #1 radio hits, and third overall since 2010, behind Rihanna (9) and Katy Perry (7). 

 

- And speaking of breaking tie this week, Bruno Mars also broke the tie with Adam Levine / Maroon 5 to become the top male act with the most #1 singles on Pop Songs for this decade so far as "Uptown Funk!" becomes his 7th #1 hit on the said chart. This pushes him to tie with Rihanna among the acts with the current decade's 2nd most #1 pop songs.

Taylor Swift's 1989 album returns to No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart for a milestone 10th nonconsecutive week, making Swift just the second woman in history to earn two albums with at least 10 weeks atop the list.
 

Swift previously logged 11 weeks at No. 1 with her second album, Fearless, in 2008 and 2009. (She has two further No. 1s: Speak Now, with six weeks at No. 1, and Red, with seven weeks in the penthouse.)
 

1989 steps back to No. 1 (rising 2-1) with 101,000 equivalent album units earned (down 15 percent) in the week ending Feb. 1, according to Nielsen Music. The Billboard 200 chart ranks the most popular albums of the week based on multi-metric consumption, which includes traditional album sales, track equivalent albums (TEA) and streaming equivalent albums (SEA).

Swift follows Whitney Houston as the only woman with multiple albums with 10 weeks at No. 1. Houston managed the feat three times: with her self-titled debut (14 weeks in 1986), her second album, Whitney (11 weeks in 1987) and The Bodyguard soundtrack (20 weeks in 1992 and 1993).
 

In total, only seven acts have claimed more than one album with 10 weeks at No. 1: Swift, Houston, The Beatles (with four), The Kingston Trio (three), Henry Mancini (two), The Monkees (two) and Elvis Presley (three).
 

1989's climb back to the top was powered by 71,000 in pure album sales (down 13 percent). The set also spends a 10th week at No. 1 on the Top Album Sales chart. This is the first time the top selling album of the week has dipped below 100,000 copies since last September, when Lecrae's Anomaly bowed atop the chart with 88,000 sold in the week ending Sept. 14, 2014. 1989's latest sales frame is the lowest for the week's top seller since the week of July 13, 2014, when Sia's 1000 Forms of Fear launched at No. 1 with 52,000.
