INDIO, CALIFORNIA – APRIL 19: BLACKPINK performs during 2019 Coachella Valley Music And Arts … [+]
Just three songs debut on this week’s World Digital Song Sales chart, and when there are so few new tunes making their way to the list, it’s a great time for older, well-loved cuts to carve out space for themselves once again. This frame, five tracks sold well enough to appear on the ranking, making it a bigger frame for names like Blackpink, SHINee and even BTS than some other global favorites who were vying to hit the tally.
Here are five tracks whose moves are worth noting on this week’s World Digital Song Sales chart.
No. 2 – BTS – “Intro: Persona”
BTS’s fan base is so large and so powerful that when they collectively decide to come together and buy a song from the band en masse, all that activity is typically seen on the charts the next week. This time around, the ARMY bought many copies of the septet’s track “Intro: Persona,” which opens their highly successful project Map of the Soul: Persona.
This week, it returns to the World Digital Song Sales chart at No. 2, almost rising all the way to the top spot.
No. 10 – Baekhyun – “Bambi”
Known for his work as a member of EXO, SuperM and as a soloist, Baekhyun is having an incredible week on charts all around the world with his latest release on his own, Bambi, an R&B-leaning EP. The set itself opens at No. 15 on the World Albums chart, while the lead cut arrives at No. 10 on the World Digital Song Sales chart, scoring this week’s loftiest debut.
Apart from the groups he’s a member of, Baekhyun has now placed a dozen tracks on the World Digital Song Sales chart, with seven of those hitting the top 10.
No. 11 – IU – “Lilac”
Singer IU is ruling the Gaon charts in South Korea currently, and her new collection isn’t doing poorly in America either. The star’s album Lilac earns the loftiest entry on the World Albums chart, starting at No. 9. The title track from the effort launches at No. 11 on the World Digital Song Sales chart, missing out on becoming her ninth top 10 by one spot. Further down the tally, “Coin” enters the race at No. 18. Coincidentally, she has now collected 18 hits on the roster.
No. 17 – SHINee – “Don’t Call Me”
Just one spot above IU’s “Coin,” South Korean boy band see their recent hit “Don’t Call Me” return to the World Digital Song Sales chart after falling off the tally not long ago. The single fronted their release of the same name, and it once appeared at No. 8 on the ranking.
No. 22 – Blackpink – “Ddu-Du Ddu-Du”
Blackpink don’t just bring one of their biggest hits back to the World Digital Song Sales chart this week, they see two of their most beloved releases yet find their way back to the ranking. Up first between the pair is “Ddu-Du Ddu-Du” at No. 22, followed immediately by “Kill This Love” at No. 23. Both tracks are fast approaching 100 weeks on the list.
