Momentum
This song has not appeared on a Rotation chart, so it has no score and no receipts. The rank history below is the ledger; a score is only published once the momentum run puts it on a chart.
Why it's here
Rolling Stone ranked Aretha Franklin's 1967 recording of "Respect" as the No. 1 song on its 500 Greatest Songs of All Time list, a ranking it reaffirmed in the 2024 update. [1] Rolling Stone stated the song's demands "resonated powerfully with the civil rights movement and emergent feminist revolution," cementing its status as an enduring anthem rather than a recent hit. [2]
In culture
Every place this record has lived. A solid chip states a fact and carries the citation that earns it; a dashed one is a connection somebody drew, and carries their name instead.

City pickups
City charts record their parent country as the market, so these do not add to the market count above. One line per country: how many of its rooms picked the song up, and the best of them.
