Sin TiLOS DOS DE TAMAULIPAS34.2Breaking inmxusRecords ten years old or more, still charting in fifteen markets or more. Ranked on how much of the world carries them and how much of the time they have actually been there, counted in captured days. The age comes from MusicBrainz and never from the ISRC: a reissue carries a young registration, which would print a false age on exactly the rows this chart is for. A record that went away and came back is here too, and its row says so.
Records the world is meeting slowed or sped up rather than as released. A record and an edit of it chart as two unrelated singles everywhere else; here they are one release family, and these are the ones where the edit is doing the travelling. Ranked by how much of the family's chart presence is on the edit, so a record met mostly through its edit outranks one whose edit is a sideshow.
FUNK MANDALA (SUPER SLOWED)dj Samir, Zericxxn & Nulteex39.727 of 56 recent videos under this record name a film, show or figureRanked by how many markets are asking what a song is. Shazam is a chart of NOT KNOWING: every row is somebody who heard something and had to ask. It moves on the day of the event rather than two days later, which makes it the earliest signal here.

CowboySelena Gomez & benny blanco61.6asked about in 14 markets, best rank #24Heard everywhere, known nowhere. Songs already on streaming charts whose recognition has been outrunning their streaming for weeks: people keep hearing them in the world and asking what they are, and the burn has lasted too long to be a release-week campaign. Ranked by how long the burn has run and how hot the city charts are, never by how many markets.
