When Maroon 5 and Lisa's single 'Priceless' hit Billboard's radio charts, it immediately became clear that the two musical acts had produced a sizable winner together. The tune was quickly adopted across a number of pop formats, becoming not only an instant charting success, but a major hit.
The single is currently in its second frame on two of the three tallies it currently appears on, and as it ascends, Lisa leapfrogs over some of the most successful names in K-pop history. While she still has a ways to go before matching the very biggest of the bunch, her progress – and after such a short period of time – is impressive.
'Priceless' lifts on the Adult Pop Airplay chart from No. 17 — where it debuted last week — to No. 12. That's an incredibly lofty position for a tune that has only spent two frames on the ranking, and it seems likely that it will crack the top 10 in just a few days when the company refreshes its rosters.
As it climbs, 'Priceless' now stands as the fifth-highest-charting track by any K-pop act in the history of the Adult Pop Airplay list. While Lisa was born and raised in Thailand, she is most closely associated with the South Korean music industry and K-pop, thanks to the fact that she got her start as one-fourth of Blackpink.
When 'Priceless' arrived, it already stood out as the sixth-highest-rising win ever by a K-pop star on the Adult Pop Airplay chart. As it pushes five spaces north, the tune jumps over 'Butter' by BTS, which stalled at No. 14 during its run several years back.
Fellow Blackpink singer Rosé still claims the highest-rising win ever among K-pop musicians on the Adult Pop Airplay chart. Her collaboration with Bruno Mars, 'Apt.' peaked at No. 2. This week, that cut is still going strong at No. 9.
The next-highest-climbing tracks by K-pop acts on the same radio list are 'My Universe' by Coldplay and BTS (No. 8 peak), 'Cupid' by Fifty Fifty (No. 9) and 'Dynamite' by BTS (No. 10).
'Priceless' also pushes to a new peak on the Pop Airplay chart this frame. It jumps four spots to No. 22. At the same time, it arrives on the Adult Contemporary tally, coming in at No. 29.

Where's Marty McFly's guitar? Search is on for 'Back to the Future' prop 4 decades later

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Marty McFly grabbed a guitar in 'Back to the Future' and rocked out with the band at a 1950s high school dance, helping him narrowly avoid blinking out of existence before time-traveling back to the 1980s. The guitar, in real life, wasn't as lucky. Filmmakers went looking for the instrument while making the movie's 1989 sequel, but even now it's nowhere to be found. Four decades after the blockbuster film debuted, the guitar's creator has launched a search for the iconic Cherry Red Gibson ES-345.

McCarthy, Vikings value Jefferson's presence and leadership in offseason practices

EAGAN, Minn. (AP) — The Minnesota Vikings urged Justin Jefferson to fully participate in their offseason program, a commitment some established NFL stars aren't willing to make each spring. The sixth-year wide receiver was already a step ahead of the coaching staff. This is a critical offseason for Jefferson and the Vikings, breaking in a new quarterback in J.J. McCarthy, so he was planning to make his attendance a priority. 'It's definitely important to gain a little bit of a sight of what the new year is coming to look like, to build that connection with my teammates and especially with my quarterback,' Jefferson said after practice on Monday. 'It's definitely great to be out here early to kind of get into the feel.' These late spring practices, known in league parlance as organized team activities, are when the basic installation of the playbook begins, even though only the three-day minicamp next week is contractually mandated. It's also a prime opportunity to build that rhythm and trust between the quarterback and his receivers. 'He's a tremendous talent, tremendous leader, but his leadership really shows up when he's here,' said McCarthy, who accompanied Jefferson to a Timberwolves playoff game last month when they sat together in courtside seats. 'Just being able to get that chemistry building on and off the field has been invaluable.' Jefferson, whose 7,432 receiving yards are the most in league history through a player's first five seasons, said he doesn't concern himself with the style or tendencies of who's throwing. 'As long as the ball gets close to my face, I'm going to try to catch it,' he said. 'It doesn't matter how fast the ball is going, the spin of it or if it's coming from a lefty or a righty. My job is to catch the ball.' What's most important to Jefferson is the quarterback learning to adjust to his route-running preferences, with an exceptional stride length and side-to-side agility that helps set him apart. 'It's that timing, those reps,' McCarthy said. 'All of that has to be built up over time.' Which is why Jefferson being around all the time is so valuable. 'He's an energy igniter of the whole building, and I think he's come back with a purpose and a mindset,' coach Kevin O'Connell said. 'You hear his voice, you hear his interaction with teammates, and they just carry such a long way.' Not just for the quarterback. 'The guys in that locker room know, 'If this guy, one of the best in the world at what he does, is pushing himself in May and June, I sure as heck better be doing the same thing,'' O'Connell said. McCarthy, whose rookie season was spent entirely in the training room recovering from knee surgery, at least had some meaningful time in strategy meetings that helped him start to build the knowledge base in the offense even if he wasn't taking snaps on the field. 'I've been really surprised by some of the things that he does know. You're like, 'Man, we covered that in a 10-minute burst in Week 11 last year. How do you remember that?'' O'Connell said. 'And then there's some other things where you're like, 'Oh, I assumed he knew that.' So it's our job — baseline teaching and stacking days and layered learning so that we're constantly making him feel like he's growing but never comfortable.' Jefferson can see that too. 'He definitely has an arm, that's for sure. He can definitely zip it whenever he needs to,' he said, before recounting his advice to McCarthy at this stage of the offseason. 'Just let everything happen. Don't try to make the best play every single play.' ___ AP NFL:

Where's Marty McFly's guitar? Search is on for 'Back to the Future' prop 4 decades later

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Marty McFly grabbed a guitar in 'Back to the Future' and rocked out with the band at a 1950s high school dance, helping him narrowly avoid blinking out of existence before time-traveling back to the 1980s. The guitar, in real life, wasn't as lucky. Filmmakers went looking for the instrument while making the movie's 1989 sequel, but even now it's nowhere to be found. Four decades after the blockbuster film debuted, the guitar's creator has launched a search for the iconic Cherry Red Gibson ES-345. Gibson, which is based in Nashville, is asking the public for help tracking it down as the movie turns 40 and as the company produces a new documentary about the search and the film, 'Lost to the Future.' In a video by Gibson, with the movie's theme song playing in the background, 'Back to the Future' stars such as Michael J. Fox, Christopher Lloyd, Lea Thompson and Harry Waters Jr. make a cinematic plea. There's also a surprise appearance by Huey Lewis, whose band Huey Lewis and the News performed the soundtrack's headliner song, 'The Power of Love.' Lloyd, in the cadence of Doc Brown, says in the video that the guitar has been 'lost to the future.' 'It's somewhere lost in the space-time continuum,' says Fox, who played McFly. 'Or it's in some Teamster's garage.' In the film, McFly steps in for an injured band member at the 1955 school dance with the theme 'Enchantment under the Sea,' playing the guitar as students slow dance to 'Earth Angel.' He then leads Marvin Barry and the Starlighters in a rendition of 'Johnny B. Goode,' calling it an oldie where he comes was from even though the 1958 song doesn't exist yet for his audience. Fox said he wanted McFly to riff through his favorite guitarists' signature styles — Jimi Hendrix behind the head, Pete Townshend's windmill and the Eddie Van Halen hammer. After digging and dancing to 'Johnny B. Goode,' the students at the dance fall into an awkward silence as McFly's riffs turn increasingly wild. 'I guess you guys aren't ready for that yet,' McFly says. 'But your kids are gonna love it.'
