LAS VEGAS, NEVADA - APRIL 03: Lady Gaga performs onstage during the 64th Annual GRAMMY Awards at MGM ... [+]
Lady Gaga has tried her hand at many different styles of music throughout her career, but she’s primarily known for her pop and dance output. The star has produced some of the biggest hits in those styles over the past several decades, and many of her classics are still bought and streamed intensely to this day.
One of the singer’s most popular smashes returns to a Billboard chart this week. As the tune reappears, it helps Gaga triple up on the tally, which is especially impressive considering the fact that all of her current hits are well over a decade old at this point.
“Bad Romance” returns to the Dance/Electronic Streaming Songs chart this frame. The dark-pop cut lands at No. 25 on Billboard’s ranking of the most-streamed tunes in the country that the company classifies as dance or electronic. It may settle in last place, but its return is worthy of noting ng nonetheless.
Gaga’s two other wins on the Dance/Electronic Streaming Songs list were already present on the ranking last time around. One of them keeps perfectly still, while the other climbs slightly, as “Bad Romance” steps into the position it filled last period.
“Poker Face” holds at No. 11 on the streaming-only ranking this week. “Just Dance,” meanwhile, lifts to No. 23. That tune, which also credits Colby O’Donis, sat in last place just a few days ago.
Both “Bad Romance” and “Poker Face” have climbed into the top 10 on the Dance/Electronic Streaming Songs chart in the past. The former has soared as high as No. 8, while one of Gaga’s earliest smashes stalled at No. 6. Somehow, despite being her breakout hit, “Just Dance” has yet to enter the highest tier, as it’s only surged to No. 12.
“Bad Romance” is on the rise likely due to the upcoming Halloween holiday. Gaga’s smash is one of several tunes that are connected to the spookiest day of the year, and sales and streams of the cut increase every October. There’s a good chance that in the coming weeks, the track will continue to rise, especially as the month nears its end.
