Rankings for the Top TV Songs chart are based on song and show data provided by Tunefind and ranked using a formula blending that data with sales and streaming information tracked by Luminate during the corresponding period of October 2022.
“Blacktop,” from Wall’s 2015 album Imaginary Appalachia, originally ranked at No. 2 in December 2021 thanks to its Yellowstone sync. It returns at No. 1 after being heard in Bad Sisters’ season one finale, which aired Oct. 14.
In October 2022, the song earned 7.4 million official on-demand U.S. streams and 2,000 downloads, according to Luminate.
“Wall” is joined by one other song from Bad Sisters’ season finale on Top TV Songs: First Aid Kit’s “My Silver Lining,” at No. 4, with 1.2 million streams and 1,000 downloads.
The highest non-Bad Sisters entry comes from Thunderstorm Artis, whose “Stronger” arrives at No. 2 after being heard in the 19th season premiere of ABC’s long-running Grey’s Anatomy.
“Stronger” snagged 379,000 streams and 1,000 downloads in October 2022.
