Almost 2 years since its release, it gained even more popularity on the Internet with the "Silhouette Challenge", where participants struck poses while being illuminated from behind with red lightining. The song became vial on TikTok, and that was why the song was sent to US contemporary hits radio stations on February 16, 2021 as the seventh and last single from the album. The song peaked #16 on the Billboard Hot 100 and to date it has accumulated more than a billion streams on Spotify.) "Freaks" - Surf Curse (Originally released in 2013, from the band's first studio album Buds.

"Unstoppable" reached one billion streams on Spotify at the end of 2023, becoming the 3rd Sia song to achieve this. The song peaked #28 on the Billboard Hot 100 and becomes the 4th song in history to spend 100 non-consecutive weeks on Billboard‘s Adult Contemporary Chart. Actually is Sia's most popular song on Spotify with more than 1.2 billion streams.)
Well Cruel Summer was always meant to be a single, if pandemic didn´t hit then Taylor would make it a tour single in 2020 for Lover Fest. And i think Traitor would also become a single anyway, it´s hard to believe that a record label wouldn´t try to release 1 more single from an album after 3 huge hits.
Nah she a fucking liar and said that to save face. She even admitted always choosing the wrong singles for an album. Cruel summer is are song not hers.
“Vogue” by Madonna was supposed to be the B-side of single “Keep it together” (from Like a Prayer album). Madonna and record company saw song’s potential and decided to release it as a single.
Song that comes to mind that fit this theme is My oh my - Camila Cabello ft Dababy from her album Romance. She had Shameless and Liar as a main singles (Seniorita wasn't originally on the album), a few promotional songs like Easy and Living Prove but it was My oh my that become fan favorite and quickly gained the best numbers from the album (beside Seniorita). After that she performed it on Jimmy Fallon and that performance became iconic with high views on YT. Only after in few months the song got the music video that wasn't originally planed. I have no ideal what about the radio because I don't live in the US but it is her second biggest song (after Seniorita) from Romance.
“Who Knew” by P!nk That song has an interesting history. It was released as the 2nd single from “I’m Not Dead” album. It initially flopped, but then something happened…the song gets featured in ads for the ABC show “October Road” it enters the Billboard Hot 100 in the low 90s through a gain in popularity. It was ultimately the unexpected success of 3rd single “U + UR Hand” that they re-released the song “Who Knew” and it become a top 10 hit and peaked at the same number as “U + UR Hand” did…. #9.
Yes !!!! I was so happy in 2007 when that happened because I love "U+Ur Hand" & "Who knew" and was always wondering why those singles weren´t successfull in 2006 in the US.... ! But in my opinion they should have entered the Top 5 of the Hot 100 ... !!
@@Licorice33 That whole album era in general is a really good example of how it takes one song to change the course of an artist’s career. Going into that era, she was not in the best position in the music industry in the US. Her last album “Try This” flopped and her lead single from “I’m Not Dead”, “Stupid Girls” was a top 15 hit, but in 2024 lense: it hasn’t aged well. So when “Who Knew” flopped, I think many were beginning to write P!nk off. It was, in the end, “U + Ur Hand” and her fans that brought her career back from the brink.
@@fitnessfreak7851 I am very impressed by your knowledge :D !!! Love that !!! The funny thing is that the "I´m not dead" era was such a success ( outside of the US )..and that right form the beginning of it. Glad that fans brought her career back in the US ! But you knwo what ? I don´t know why she didn´t have any successfull singles after "The truth about love".... I mean "What about us" was in the Top 20...but only for a few weeks.... and after that no single entered the Top 20 again :( !!! "Beautiful Trauma" / "Walk me home" / "A million dreams"..those singles were so fantastic !!! Hope she will gain the success she deserves with her next record !!
@@Licorice33 Now correct me if I’m wrong, didn’t she earn a top 10 hit with “Just Like Fire”? I do agree that she has released a lot of great songs that never caught on. I fully believe that “A Million Dreams”, “Trustfall”, “Can We Pretend” were CRIMINALLY UNDERRATED and deserved to be hits. Recently, rumors were circulating that P!nk was somewhat upset that no one was talking about her recorded breaking tour numbers in Australia. She has been extending her tour in Australia and (allegedly) she felt she should be spoken about like Taylor Swift and Beyonce.
@@fitnessfreak7851 you are absolutely right … JLF was number 10 .. and I forgot that 😕.. sorry !! But … of course it should have been within the top 10 for more than a few weeks. Why was she so underrated in the late 2010 ? In my opinion the reason wasn‘t the songs .. because they were great !! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 !!

I think the overplayed ness and how viral it went around the world definitely affected the song for me because I remember streaming this song alot during pandemic. Then i took a break from it & suddenly she releases it as a single and its everywhere lol
Correction: Bloody Mary wasn’t in the original Wednesday dance scene nor was it in the show’s soundtrack. It was a TikTok edit v
That’s what he said but in different wording
yea

I’m pretty Dark Horse by Katy Perry wasn’t meant to be a single. They were trying to push Unconditionally, but the fans just liked Dark Horse more.
Bloody Mary was not even used in Wednesday. It was all because of a tiktok edit, I think.

“Respect” by Aretha Franklin was also not suppose to be a single. Imagine a world without this song as a single!
