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
The song was written by Sherman Kelly while recovering from a violent assault in St. Croix, envisioning it as "an alternate reality, the dream of a peaceful and joyful celebration of life." [1] King Harvest's version features a prominent keyboard countermelody and became a hit after languishing for a year until Perception Records bought and released it worldwide. [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.
