Is it close to silver in the UK?

I have it at 181,000+ units currently in the UK, but it could be more given I haven't had exact figures for HMH for weeks.

 

Either way I imagine it'll be Silver by the end of September. It's done 16 weeks, one more and it'll have done more weeks than Stupid Love and Judas, becoming her 13th longest-running Top 100 entry in the UK. Longevity queen!

When it was dwindling around the 50s region, I never thought we'd be reaching 16 weeks on the chart! :o

iTunes US:

#22. Hold My Hand (+3)

 

Stable smash :clap:

#87 in the UK mids so it's on ACR. It has had a good run though!

It far outdid its time on the chart imo so I'm at peace with that. Sales will be consistent for now though even while it takes a tumble.

Gutted it never made the top 20 but overall I'm pleased with how its done.

Hold My Hand exceeded all expectations regarding its UK chartrun, especially considering that it lost its UK playlist support 3 weeks ago.

 

In Canada things are even better: #55 this week (16 weeks on the chart, tying I'll Never Love Again), so another single with at least 20 weeks on the chart there.

Dropped out of UK chart after 16 weeks. It had a good run for a soundtrack single though!

It's been certified gold in Australia, Canada and France (and will soon be certified silver in the UK). It has 105 million streams on Spotify (average around 845k per day).

A middling hit! I'm glad it wasn't a complete flop and will certainly be remembered if only for the film which is decent enough. Shallow's wig remains safe though :kink:

I think it did well for such a "traditional sounding" power ballad that was clearly written as a movie theme. Maybe the TCB performance as the encore helps it to collect streams in the long run.

I think it's crazy that it's still top 40 on iTunes (and Youtube). In old money the song has been a HUGE hit here without streaming :lol:

Certified GOLD in Italy!

This is what we have so far then:

 

Australia — Gold (35,000)

Canada — Gold (40,000)

France — Gold (100,000)

Italy — Gold (50,000)

 

UK and US are eligible or near eligible for certifications too.

Certified silver in the UK (200,000) and platinum in Switzerland (20,000) :cheer:

Yay! Impressed how well it did in Switzerland - top 5 peak and platinum!

German Singles Chart:

 

#72. Hold My Hand (+18) *New Peak*

(Peak #72 — 16 Weeks)

 

What's caused this?

Dunno, but glad to see that there is still some life in this.

"Hold My Hand" spends a 19th week inside the top 100 of French Singles Chart (#67 this week, up 7 spots). It becomes Lady Gaga's single from this decade with most weeks inside the top 100, supassing "Stupid Love" (18) and "Rain On Me" (16).
