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 track contains elements of Kool & the Gang's 1975 song "Spirit of the Boogie," credited among its writers, and Pitchfork likened its sound to James Brown's "Living in America." [1] It reached number one on Billboard's Adult Alternative Songs chart, making it the Killers' first song to top that chart in over ten years since "Read My Mind." [2] The song was used in a promotional video by Showtime for the Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Conor McGregor fight and later featured in the trailer for the Dick Cheney biopic Vice. [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.
