As it continues to impress on streaming and sales charts, Kate Bush’s revived “Running Up That Hill (A Deal With God)” continues to soar at radio.

It, notably, ranks as this week’s greatest airplay gainer at the pop format.

“Running Up That Hill” received ~8,150 Mediabase-monitored pop spins during the July 10-16 tracking period, topping last week’s mark by a whopping 2,023.

Charlie Puth’s “Left and Right (featuring Jung Kook),” the next greatest gainer, added 1,265 spins this week. Other notable gainers include Beyonce’s “BREAK MY SOUL” (+1,235), Harry Styles’ “Late Night Talking” (+1,143), and Nicky Youre & dazy’s “Sunroof” (+1,046).
