Deadpool & Wolverine: Bye Bye Bye Soars Up Billboard Charts
*NSYNC's hit ends up hitting the Hot 100 again.
Deadpool & Wolverine continues to fuel a "Bye, Bye, Bye" resurgence on the charts and in the record stores. New figures from Billboard's charts see the *NSYNC nostalgic favorite all the way up at number 8 on their Excl. U.S. Chart. If that wasn't surreal enough, "Bye, Bye, Bye" Also reentered the Hot 100 chart this week at number 45. (Historically, the song's height was number 4, that's probably out of reach. It's a little surreal to be having this conversation at all right now in 2024.) Forbes also reports that *NSYNC's song has seen an 800% increase in sales since Deadpool & Wolverine released.
Spotify also saw "Bye, Bye, Bye" take their charts by storm. Director Shawn Levy celebrated the Deadpool & Wolverine single hitting the top charts on the streaming platform last week. A 24-year-old song usually doesn't see its best performance decades after a debut. But, in the streaming era, all bets are off. ( as if to put a bow on this entire thing, the song is now listed as "Bye, Bye, Bye" [Official Song from Deadpool & Wolverine] on the streaming platform.)

Madonna's "Like A Prayer" enjoyed a $229% increase in streams since Deadpool & Wolverine hit theaters as well. "Iris" by the Goo Goo Dolls even managed to get some pull out of all of this. Last week's D23 Expo in Anaheim also saw some Greatest Showman love as well.
