Foo Fighters’ tune “Today’s Song” debuts at No. 40 on the U.K. Official Singles Downloads chart, … More
Out of seemingly nowhere, the Foo Fighters recently released a new single titled “Today’s Song.” At the moment, it’s unclear whether the band is working on a full-length or if the rock outfit simply wanted to give fans something to enjoy in the meantime.
It doesn’t seem to matter to longtime supporters of the Dave Grohl-fronted group, as listeners in the United Kingdom quickly began purchasing “Today’s Song” the moment it became available, turning it into a top 40 success in no time.
“Today’s Song” Just Barely Reaches the Top 40
The latest from Foo Fighters opens at No. 40 on the Official Singles Downloads chart. At the same time, it lands five spaces lower on the Official Singles Sales list, which isn’t focused on any one format, but rather encompasses all kinds of purchases, including downloads, CDs, cassettes, and vinyl.
Years Since the Last Bestseller
It has been a little more than two years since Foo Fighters scored a new hit on either the Official Singles Sales or Official Singles Downloads rankings. The group most recently appeared on the Official Singles Downloads chart in May 2023 with “Under You,” which peaked at No. 59. The act last rose higher with “Rescue Me,” its prior tune, which hit No. 28 in April 2023.
The band returned to the Official Singles Sales chart in January 2024 with “The Glass,” several months after both “Rescue Me” and “Under You” launched — and then quickly disappeared.
Foo Fighters Close in on a Chart Milestone
Throughout the decades that Foo Fighters have been together, the musicians have collected 17 wins on the Official Singles Sales chart. With one more tune, the group will hit two dozen placements on the ranking of the top-selling downloads throughout the U.K.
