Also holding steady was Bruno Mars' "When I Was Your Man" and Taylor Swift's "I Knew You Were Trouble" which stayed even at #3 and #4, respectively. Rihanna's "Stay" was up two spots to #5.
Holding even at #6 was Drake's "Started From the Bottom" while Britney Spears and will.i.am's "Scream & Shout" was down two spot to #7.
