charts discussion Imogen Heap scores first Billboard Hot 100 entry ever with "Headlock"

[Hector]

The song, which appears on Heap's 2005 sophomore LP, Speak for Yourself, debuts at No. 100 on the Hot 100 (dated Jan. 25) almost entirely from its streaming sum: 5.9 million official U.S. streams (up 11%) in the Jan. 10-16 tracking week, according to Luminate. It also holds at its No. 10 high on the Hot Rock & Alternative Songs chart.

 

The song has been generating renewed interest in recent weeks thanks to a viral social media trend involving the psychological horror thriller video game Mouthwashing. Fans use the song to soundtrack various edited compilations of gameplay footage. The track has been particularly active on TikTok, where it has soundtracked over 135,000 clips on the platform to date.

No but Jason Derulo's "Whatcha say" which sampled it definitely charted high.

To think such a legendary album skipped the hot 100 is such a good reminder that the sharts charts mean NOTHING in regard to quality.

I'm kind of surprised that goodnight and go didn't make it to the top 100. It had a bit of presence on mtv (back when they still played music videos)

And "hide and seek" when it iconically played in two scenes on 'The O.C', particularly the dramatic af season 2 ending.
