Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars' "Die With a Smile" will remain Shazam's Biggest Mover for another week. The little ditty is currently #3 on the Spotify U.S. chart and #1 global, another sign of its immense staying power.
In the #2 spot is "Timeless" by The Weeknd f/Playboi Carti, which was released in September as the second single from the XO/Republic star's forthcoming album, Hurry Up Tomorrow. The song saw a surge in activity following Tyler, the Creator's recent Camp Flog Gnaw Festival, where The Weeknd performed the track.
Up next at #3 is the 1981 Phil Collins classic "In the Air Tonight." Interest in the song exploded after YouTube personality-turned-boxer Jake Paul used it as his walk-out song just before he took on Mike Tyson in the ring. It's also the same track Tyson bumped in the Hangover film.
Rounding out the Top 5 is a new song called "Ghetto" by emerging rapper E.K.E. f/Tru Carr at #4 and Lainey Wilson's "Out of Oklahoma" from Twisters: The Album (Atlantic) at #5. The film recently premiered on streaming services, leading to the jump. The country chanteuse just wrapped up her Country's Cool Again Tour and will perform at and co-host the 2024 CMA Awards on Wednesday night (11/20). Of course, we've been asked to sit that one out.
