Why it's here
"(I Just) Died in Your Arms" reached No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the first week of May 1987, and it remains Cutting Crew's signature song. [1] Its catalogue standing is sustained by long-running screen and game placements: the track plays on the fictional radio station Emotion 98.3 in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City (2002) and was released as downloadable content for Rock Band 3 in August 2012, alongside appearances in films and television. [2] The song's continued catalogue activity was marked in July 2026 when it was added to Spotify's Billions Club. [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.

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.
