It took some time, but Bruno Mars has finally notched another No. 1 song on Billboard’s Adult Contemporary chart.

The 27-year-old part-Puerto Rican singer’s “When I Was Your Man” rises from 3-1 this week, making it Mars’ second Adult Contemporary No. 1.

The Grammy-winning singer-songwriter returns to the chart’s summit for the first time since he led with “Just the Way You Are” in 2011.

“Just the Way You Are” sat atop the Adult Contemporary chart for a staggering 20 weeks back in 2011.

In between the two leaders, Mars added the Top 10 single “Locked Out of Heaven,” which reached No. 7 in late April (and ranks at No. 11 this week).
