John Legend's "All of Me" joins at the very top group of crossover hits who have topped as much as five currently active singular-format Billboard radio airplay charts, as being the ballad bumps 2-1 on Adult Contemporary. The coronation would be the song's fifth on a real survey, since it previously ruled Adult R&B Songs for seven weeks, Pop Songs (five), Adult Pop Songs (four) and Rhythmic Songs (one).

Four prior smashes each led five distinct-format airplay charts - Robin Thicke's "Blurred Lines" (featuring Pharrell Williams and T.I.) (2013); Gotye's "Somebody That I Used to Know" (featuring Kimbra) (2012-13); Green Day's "Boulevard of Broken Dreams" (2004-05); and Boyz II Men's "I'll Make Love to You" (1994-95) - while you've got crowned six: Williams' "Happy," which "All of Me" dethrones after six weeks atop Adult Contemporary.
