Kate Bush’s ‘Running Up That Hill’ Takes Lead – Billboard

Kate Bush may full her unimaginable comeback with a U.Ok. chart crown for “Operating Up That Hill.”

The long-lasting English singer’s 1985 hit has discovered contemporary legs, because of its inclusion within the fourth season of Netflix’s standard sci-fi collection, Stranger Issues.

Final Friday (June 10), the one lifted to No. 2 on the Official U.Ok. Singles Chart, for a brand new chart finest.

It may go one higher. Based mostly on gross sales and streaming information from the primary 48 hours within the chart week, “Operating Up That Hill” lifts into high spot.

If it retains its momentum, “Operating” would finish Harry Kinds’ 10-week unbroken streak atop the survey with “As It Was,” at present at No. 2 on the First Look chart. And it could give Bush her second chief, after her debut “Wuthering Heights” scaled the chart again in 1978.

Because of Max Mayfield and the remainder of the characters from Stranger Issues, “Operating Up That Hill” has cracked the Prime 10 on the Billboard Scorching 100, and, final Friday, went to No. 1 for the primary time on the ARIA Singles Chart.

The Stranger Issues impact is spilling over onto the U.Ok. albums chart, the place, as beforehand reported, Bush’s profession retrospective The Entire Story flies 76-19.

In the meantime, the best new entry on the U.Ok. chart blast belongs to BTS, with “But to Come.” Lifted from the Ok-pop phenomenon’s Proof anthology, which dropped final week, “But to Come” begins at No. 11 on the early chart and is ready to change into the boyband’s eighth U.Ok. Prime 40 title.

The Official U.Ok. Singles Chart is introduced late Friday.
