Demi Lovato’s “Cool for the Summer” rises to a new peak of #24 on this week’s Billboard Hot 100, and a sizable week-over-week sales gain represents a key factor.
According to Nielsen Music, “Cool for the Summer” drove 54,254 downloads during the July 17-23 tracking week. The tally, which brings the song’s cumulative US sales total to 206,994, bests the previous week’s mark by 21%.
Billboard awards the song the week’s “Digital Gainer” distinction.
As noted, “CFTS” rises seven places to a new peak of #24 on the all-encompassing Hot 100. In conjunction with that new peak, it rises to #18 on the Digital Songs subchart, #22 on the Radio Songs subchart and #31 on the Streaming Songs chart.
The song’s weekly streaming activity included one day’s worth of music video views. Since next week’s Streaming Songs chart will account for a full week of video views, “Cool for the Summer” should rise considerably.
