For the second time, Taylor Swift earns a top 10 song on Billboard’s Adult Alternative Airplay chart.

The National’s “The Alcott,” on which Swift is a featured vocalist, bounds from No. 15 to No. 10 on the tally dated June 17.

Swift first reached the region in 2020 when “Exile,” featuring Bon Iver, peaked at No. 9. In between her two top 10s, she appeared on Adult Alternative Airplay with two tracks, first with the No. 18-peaking “Coney Island,” featuring The National (March 2021), and then via “Snow on the Beach,” featuring Lana Del Rey (No. 30 this January).

As for The National, “The Alcott” is the band’s sixth top 10 and third in a row, following the No. 6-peaking “Weird Goodbyes,” featuring Bon Iver (November 2022), and five-week ruler “Tropic Morning News” in March-April. The Matt Berninger-led act’s other top 10s are “The System Only Dreams in Total Darkness” (No. 1, two weeks, August 2017), “Day I Die” (No. 7, December 2017) and “You Had Your Soul With You” (No. 9, May 2019).

Concurrently, “The Alcott,” which Berninger and The National’s Aaron Dessner and Swift co-wrote, and which The National produced, jumps 45-40 on the all-rock-format, audience-based Rock & Alternative Airplay list with 748,000 audience impressions, up 18%, June 2-8, according to Luminate.

Following its April 28 release, the song debuted at its No. 13 high on the multi-metric Hot Rock & Alternative Songs chart dated May 13.

“The Alcott” is the second single, following “Tropic Morning News,” from First Two Pages of Frankenstein, The National’s ninth studio album. The set debuted at No. 1 on the Top Rock & Alternative Albums survey dated May 13 and has earned 62,000 equivalent album units since its release.
