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
Bobby Darin's 1959 recording is an English-lyric version of Charles Trenet's French song "La Mer," and it became one of his signature pop-standard hits alongside "Mack the Knife." [1] The recording is part of the licensed soundtrack of the video game BioShock, where it plays in connection with the undersea city of Rapture, keeping the track in circulation with gaming audiences. [2] The song also gave its title to the 2004 Bobby Darin biopic "Beyond the Sea," starring Kevin Spacey, which dramatizes Darin's career. [3]
