Stranger Things
Kate Bush's song Running Up That Hill (Make a Deal with God) soared to the top of the streaming charts this week after featuring in the latest series of Stranger Things, Netflix's hit show about a group of teenagers who stumble across the supernatural.
After the show dropped on May 27th, it took only a day for the song to break into the Spotify Top 200 in the US, and by yesterday it had hit 2.3 million streams, good enough to dislodge As It Was by Harry Styles at the top of the charts. Last week the song was racking up just ~20,000 plays a day.
In the global charts, Running Up That Hill was at second place on Spotify's Top 200, clocking up more than 8 million streams (just on Spotify, which we found data for).
