Adele's "Hello" Broke Pretty Much Every Digital Music Record

It took about six and a half years for this (awful) song to lose its spot at the top. But "Hello" didn't just unseat Flo Rida's track, it demolished it. With "Hello" Adele nearly doubled Flo Rida's 636,000 first week digital sales, Billboard reports.

"Hello" is also the 24th song to ever debut at number one on the Billboard charts.
