David Bowie's 'Under Pressure' Re-Enters Billboard Charts After 8 Years

Commerzank re-enters DAX and executives ring opening bell at Frankfurt exchange

David Bowie, the legendary musician, may have passed away over eight years ago, but his music continues to resonate with fans worldwide. One of his most iconic singles, 'Under Pressure,' a collaboration with Queen, has made a resurgence on the Billboard charts.

This week, 'Under Pressure' reappeared on two Billboard rankings, showcasing its enduring popularity. The track secured the 10th spot on the Hard Rock Digital Song Sales chart, which tracks the top-selling hard rock songs in the U.S. Additionally, it entered the Hard Rock Streaming Songs chart at No. 25, reflecting its streaming activity.

Despite re-entering both charts at the bottom positions, 'Under Pressure' has demonstrated remarkable longevity on the Hard Rock Digital Song Sales chart, spending a total of 279 weeks as one of the best-selling hard rock songs in the country. On the Hard Rock Streaming Songs chart, it has maintained a presence for 186 weeks.

The cyclical nature of 'Under Pressure's' appearance on the charts is attributed to fluctuations in sales and streaming figures. The song's consistent re-entry into the rankings underscores its timeless appeal and enduring relevance in the music industry.

David Bowie's legacy lives on through his music, with 'Under Pressure' serving as a testament to his enduring impact on rock history. As fans continue to celebrate his contributions, his influence remains palpable in the music world.
