The trio had previously reached a No. 5 high with "Burnin' Up" in 2008.
Jonas Brothers' comeback single "Sucker" rockets onto the Billboard Hot 100 songs chart (dated March 16) at No. 1, marking their first leader on the list.
The group, consisting of Joe, Kevin and Nick Jonas, initially appeared on the chart over 12 years go and reached a prior No. 5 high with "Burnin' Up" in 2008.
Jonas Brothers, who formed in 2005, ascended to boy band royalty soon after thanks to their numerous Disney TV and film projects, in addition to their music, which included a pair of No. 1 albums on the Billboard 200 chart in 2008 and 2009. After their split in 2013, they announced their reunion Feb. 28 and released "Sucker," and its official video, the following day (at midnight ET on March 1).
Also on the latest Hot 100, Cardi B and Bruno Mars' "Please Me" blasts to a new No. 3 peak following the March 1 premiere of its official video.
No. 1 in sales & streams: "Sucker," released on Republic Records, starts as the 1,085th No. 1 in the Hot 100's 60-year history.
The track launches atop the Streaming Songs chart with 43.7 million U.S. streams in the week ending March 7, according to Nielsen Music. The trio reigns in its first appearance on the tally (which began in 2013).
"Sucker" also debuts at No. 1 on Digital Song Sales with 88,000 first-week downloads sold in the week ending March 7. The trio's 22nd entry on the chart is its first No. 1 (following three No. 2-peaking hits, all in 2008: "Burnin' Up," "Pushing Me Away" and "Tonight").
On the Radio Songs chart, "Sucker" arrives at No. 46, a career-best rank for the act, with 22.6 million audience impressions in the week ending March 10.
Helping power the strong start for "Sucker," Jonas Brothers promoted their return with a week-long residency last week on CBS' The Late Late Show With James Corden, including their buzzy Carpool Karaoke. (Billboard Magazine)
