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
"Safe and Sound" is Capital Cities' breakthrough single whose DIY video was nominated for Best Music Video at the 56th Grammy Awards in 2014 and won Best Visual Effects at the 2013 MTV VMAs, giving it a durable catalog profile on streaming-driven international charts. [1] Capital Cities returned to active release in September 2025 with the single "Late For School," billed as a preview of a forthcoming full-length album, putting the duo behind "Safe and Sound" back in front of listeners. [2] The song has also had long-running sync life in advertising, including a Vodafone television spot that Universal Music promoted on the band's official label page. [3]
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.
