THE WEEKND BOWLS OVER iTUNES
Enough Super Bowl viewers pushed aside the guac and nachos to add to their music collections, as seven of the top eight songs at iTunes are by halftime performer The Weeknd. He also has four albums in the Top 8.
The XO/Republic star’s winning SB LV performance results in “Blinding Lights,” “Can’t Feel My Face” and “Save Your Tears” occupying the top three slots, with his two Daft Punk collabs, “I Feel It” and “Starboy,” following at #5 and #6. “Blinding Lights” and “Save Your Tears” have also made their way into the Top 20 at Apple Music.
The compilation released Friday, The Highlights, is #3 at iTunes and #11 at Apple Music; his March 2020 release, After Hours, is #5 on both charts.
