Coldplay’s “Sparks” and “Yellow” reenter Billboard’s Rock Streaming Songs chart, with both cuts … More
The past several weeks have been huge for Coldplay on the charts in a number of nations, including the United States and the United Kingdom. The group has a lot going on at the moment, as its seemingly never-ending Music of the Spheres World Tour continues, and it pushed past $1 billion in grosses last year. The pop-rock outfit has also enjoyed quite a bit of virality lately, as a decades-old tune picked up new fans on TikTok. That surge translated into success on several important rankings, and an embarrassing moment on the kiss cam at a recent show has kept the band’s name in headlines.
All of the attention being paid to Coldplay has led to an uptick in plays on streaming platforms. This week in America, that surge can be clearly seen on one of Billboard’s streaming tallies.
Coldplay Returns to the Rock Streaming Songs Chart
Coldplay appears twice on the Rock Streaming Songs chart, Billboard’s ranking that details the most successful individual tracks on platforms like Spotify, Apple Music, iHeartRadio, Amazon Music, and others in the U.S. Both tunes reappear after recently falling off the list.
“Sparks” is the higher-rising of the two, as it reenters at No. 19, just one space below its all-time high point. Another classic from the band, “Yellow,” narrowly manages to break back in at No. 25.
“Sparks” and “Yellow” Gain Momentum
While “Sparks” and “Yellow” are two of Coldplay’s oldest cuts, they are still relatively new to the Rock Streaming Songs chart — at least when looking at the number of weeks they’ve spent on the list. “Sparks” debuted only recently, and has now lived on the tally for about a month. “Yellow,” meanwhile, is up to 14 stays on the roster.
“Sparks” Hits a New Peak on the Alternative Streaming Chart
As “Sparks” returns to the Rock Streaming Songs chart, the track climbs again on a similar ranking, the Alternative Streaming Songs list. The Coldplay cut jumps from No. 17 to No. 12, reaching a never-before-seen peak.
The same tune returns to its all-time high of No. 10 on the Hot Rock Songs ranking, thanks largely to its continued success on streaming platforms. “Yellow” also climbs on the Alternative Streaming Songs chart, pushing from No. 24 to No. 18.
