Myles Smith Rules Canadian Radio Airplay Charts With 'Stargazing'

The U.K. singer tops three of the Canadian airplay charts, while Ontario rockers Three Days Grace lead the Mainstream Rock chart with comeback single "Mayday."

Welcome to our weekly airplay chart beat column, which will take a look at what's hot on the seven airplay charts that have recently debuted on Billboard Canada.

For our first look at the Canadian airplay charts, Myles Smith's "Stargazing" is the champion. The U.K. singer's ballad "Stargazing" is No. 1 on the Canada All-Format chart and Canada Hot AC chart, as well as rising to No. 1 on the Canada AC chart, which tracks adult contemporary. On the Canada CHR/Top 40 chart, "Stargazing" comes in at No. 3, while ROSE and Bruno Mars take the top spot with "Apt."
