Rankings for the Top Movie Songs chart are based on song and film 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 September 2025. The ranking generally includes newly released films from the preceding three months, with exceptions given to movies whose music is still experiencing a high volume of public interest.
Despite its June premiere, KPop Demon Hunters has remained a pop culture force, paced by its multiweek Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 “Golden” by HUNTR/X, which also stays at the top of the latest Top Movie Songs ranking. In October 2025, it earned 177 million official on-demand U.S. streams and sold 38,000 downloads, according to Luminate. The track also led the Hot 100 for two weeks that month (Oct. 4-11) and has spent the most recent five frames at No. 2.
The rest of Top Movie Songs’ top seven is occupied by songs from the fictional KPop Demon Hunters groups HUNTR/X and Saja Boys, plus soloists EJAE and Andrew Choi, with Saja Boys’ “Soda Pop” leading the rest of the pack at No. 2 (88.2 million streams, 12,000 downloads).
After KPop Demon Hunters, the top song comes from Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere, the Bruce Springsteen biopic that premiered on Oct. 24. Springsteen’s “Hungry Heart” appears at No. 8 with 2.1 million streams and 1,000 downloads; it was his first top 20 on the Hot 100 in its day, eventually peaking at No. 5 in 1980.

Green Wednesday is here, and for those of us who indulge, you’re well aware of what the day signifies, but no worries if you don’t, as we’ll educate you. For this year’s Green Wednesday, we have a handful of goods and deals worth checking out, so that “cousin walk” will be a bit more interesting than usual.
With the legality of hemp-derived THC and cannabis products facing a potential industry-shifting ban, there is a bit of a cloud hanging over the industry. Sure, there were plenty of bad actors who exploited the Farm Bill loophole and got products out without any of the regulations necessary to ensure quality and safety. But there are plenty of reputable companies in the space that test their products before pushing them out to the masses.
I personally enjoy THC products, whether hemp-derived or not, and just as I would say for someone who wishes to enjoy alcohol, you should carefully indulge in any product that can produce potential physical effects. Now, enough with my preaching about cannabis use and safety, let’s get on with it.

Below, we’ll share a brief explainer of Green Wednesday from Weedmaps, one of my favorite ways to find the products I need on the legal market.
From Weedmaps:
Dubbed the Black Friday of cannabis, Green Wednesday is thought to have started in 2017 when a cannabis delivery company noted the drastic rise in cannabis sales the day before Thanksgiving. While the holiday season typically sees a significant uptick in sales, this particular Wednesday draws people to their local retailers in droves, and for good reason.
We’ll also share delivery services and other brands that ship products nationwide. As always, if you decide to purchase any of the products we’re featuring, do so responsibly and obey the laws of your respective states. This stuff is made for folks over the age of 21. Not every brand below has a special going on, and I only included folks that either pitched me, or I remembered to include, so sift through the links to see what’s what.
Happy Green Wednesday and Happy “Danksgiving” to boot.

You know them, you love them, and now, The Beatles’ legacy is being immortalized in a re-released anthology series.
The iconic British band has amassed a whopping 20 number one hits on Billboard’s Hot 100, with famed tracks like “Hey Jude,” “Get Back,” and “I Want To Hold Your Hand,” holding the record for the most No. 1’s since 1965. The band’s musical reach is unmistakable, which is why Peter Jackson’s Park Road Post digital team and Apple Corps’ multimedia production team have restored and remastered the 1995 anthology series about the band, set to stream on Disney+.
The Beatles Anthology will feature previously unseen footage restored in vivid fashion. We’ll see The Beatles journey from Liverpool to becoming a global phenomenon as told through the perspective of all four members.

This year, the event weathered a snag after a refrigerated truck broke down, spoiling 650 of the 3,600 allotment of turkeys. Lawrence then asked for the community’s help. Nashville’s denizens, including country artist and “Wind Up Missin’ You” hitmaker Tucker Wetmore, came to his aid.
Wetmore himself went to Costco and loaded his truck with more than 100 turkeys and took them to the turkey fry, helping Lawrence and many others cook up the poultry. Several artists and celebrities also helped out with the turkey fry, including Jamey Johnson, Charles Esten, Dustin Lynch, Meghan Patrick, John Crist, Rodney Atkins, Clint Black, Rhett Akins and Frank Ray, while artists such as Atkins, Black, Akins, Esten and Steve Wariner also donated turkeys.
Overall, people from Nashville and surrounding areas donated more than 2,400 turkeys, for a total of 5,350 cooked and frozen distributed turkeys, helping to provide upward of 50,000 meals.
“I cannot imagine a better 20th anniversary for the Mission:Possible Turkey Fry and Concert,” Lawrence said in a statement. “What started as a day of uncertainty turned into a day of our community coming together in a way I couldn’t have imagined. Between the fry itself and the benefit concert with my friends Gretchen, Chris, Eric and Halfway to Hazard, I was blown away once again by the kindness of our neighbors.”
The music portion of the event featured artists including Lawrence, Gretchen Wilson, Chris Cagle, Eric Paslay and Halfway to Hazard performing at Luke Combs’ Category 10. The event raised $355,000 for Mission: Possible from ticket sales, silent auction items and artist donations, and presented a check to Nashville Rescue Mission for $250,000. This year, the event also hosted a canned food drive on behalf of Second Harvest Food Bank to help those impacted by food insecurity.
