Ariana Grande’s latest single “Twilight Zone” debuts on multiple charts in the United Kingdom this week, long after it gave the pop singer yet another win on several tallies. The tune was recently released on vinyl, and fans of the Grammy winner snapped up copies in large enough numbers that the cut almost became another chart-topper – though it doesn’t quite manage to hit No. 1.
“Twilight Zone” Debuts High
“Twilight Zone” debuts on both the Official Physical Singles and Official Vinyl Singles charts this week. On the physical tally, Grande misses the summit by a single rung, while on vinyl she lands firmly inside the top three.
Wunderhorse Blocks Grande From the Top
Grande’s bid for another physical No. 1 is halted by English rock band Wunderhorse. The outfit leaps from No. 67 to No. 1 with “The Rope” in just its second week on the chart. The rock cut’s rapid ascent forces “Twilight Zone” to settle for the runner-up slot, despite very healthy sales.
Ariana Grande Expands Her Top 10 Smashes
With “Twilight Zone,” Grande claims her thirteenth top 10 on the Official Physical Singles chart. On the vinyl ranking, she earns her eleventh career top 10. Her history on both rosters includes two leaders apiece, as “Yes, And?” and “We Can’t Be Friends (Wait for your Love)” from her Eternal Sunshine era both managed to peak in first place.
Joining a List of No. 2 Hits
“Twilight Zone” is the latest Grande single to peak at No. 2 on the Official Physical Singles chart, and one of several from her catalog. It follows tunes like “Positions,” “The Boy Is Mine” and “Popular” from the Wicked soundtrack, all of which also fell just short of the crown.
“Twilight Zone” Reaches a New Sales High
The single also returns to the Official Singles Sales chart, landing at No. 5 this week. That’s a new best showing for the poppy cut. As it surges, the tune marks Grande’s twenty-second top 10 on the sales-focused list.
