Current Hit:  “Shivers” by Ed Sheeran

Linked to:  “Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go”  by Wham/1984

Because:  Both songs have a strong dance beat and catchy pop hooks.

“Shivers,” which has a “chill worthy” opening, is the second single from Sheeran’s soon to be released new album “=,” ( pronounced “Equals”) which also included the summer’s #1 “Bad Habits” ( STILL #1 on Adult Top 40) and it’s very likely that “Shivers” will hit the top slot, too.

Charting:   #17 on Adult Top 40 and #19 on Top 40.
