Welcome to this week’s Top 20 Most Wanted countdown and for a 5th straight week Ed Sheeran’s “Shape of You” is the number-1 song in the land!  Alessia Cara finally drops OUT of the #2 spot while Katy Perry slides up to take her place!

Of note this week – another week – another BIG jump for Zayn and Taylor Swift as “I Don’t Wanna Live Forever” moves up another 4 spots to crack the Top 5 this week for the 1st time since it debuted.

Scroll down to see the song we chose for this week’s Soundtrack Spotlight (from “With Honors” starring Joe Pesci and Brendan Fraser), our Most Wanted Flashback looks back at a song that topped the charts in the mid-90’s for a Swedish quartet NOT-named ABBA, and the Most Wanted Request is for a listener’s wedding song from a Jersey band that’s still going strong.
