Taylor Swift’s “Wildest Dreams” Re-Enters Hot 100; Enjoys 981% Sales Gain

On the heels of its radio impact and official music video launch, Taylor Swift’s “Wildest Dreams” re-enters the Billboard Hot 100 at a new peak.

The song, which had previously charted at #76 in conjunction with last fall’s “1989” release, claims #15 on this week’s chart.

The position comes courtesy significant gains in all three Hot 100 chart categories. It claims #7 on Digital Songs (981% gain to 83,000 weekly US sales), #15 on Streaming Songs (3,584% gain to 7.8 million weekly US streams), and #26 on Radio Songs (114% gain to 43 million weekly US radio impressions).

“Wildest Dreams” is the fifth single from “1989” — and the fifth to reach the Hot 100’s Top 15.

Three of the previous four singles reached #1 on the Hot 100.
