Song Revenue Chart: Taylor Swift Tops the List

Hits Daily Double did not publish their building album charts this week due to a delay from the long weekend, but the site has released the latest song revenue chart. Below is a clear, reader-friendly breakdown of the top entries and their revenue performance, with download and streaming units separated for transparency.

1. Taylor Swift — “Look What You Made Me Do” (Big Machine)

Taylor Swift leads this week’s song revenue chart with “Look What You Made Me Do.” The single generated total revenue of $496,265. Breaking this down by format:

• Downloads: 352,565 units, generating $320,834 in revenue
• Streams: 30,509,660 plays, generating $175,431 in revenue

This split illustrates the significant contribution of paid downloads to the single’s overall revenue, complemented by a large streaming audience. The combined figures give a comprehensive view of how different consumption methods contributed to the song’s total earnings for the reporting period.

14. Liam Payne — “Strip That Down” (Feat. Quavo) (Republic)

On this chart, Liam Payne’s “Strip That Down” featuring Quavo is a notable performer. The single recorded total revenue of $62,897 for the period, a slight decline of 1% from the previous measurement. The format-level details are as follows:

• Downloads: 43,492 units, generating $21,007 in revenue
• Streams: 7,285,225 plays, generating $41,890 in revenue

The streaming component accounted for the larger portion of revenue for this track, while downloads still provided a meaningful contribution to the overall total. The minor decline indicates a relatively steady performance week-over-week.

25. Niall Horan — “Slow Hands” (Capitol)

Niall Horan’s “Slow Hands” appears further down the list with total revenue of $49,419, reflecting a 2% decrease from the prior reporting period. The detailed breakdown shows a balanced contribution from both downloads and streams:

• Downloads: 38,472 units, generating $18,582 in revenue
• Streams: 5,362,982 plays, generating $30,837 in revenue

Although the song’s total revenue is smaller than the top-performing entry, the split highlights how continued streaming activity sustains earnings even as downloads taper.

What the Chart Reveals

This song revenue report underscores a few clear points relevant to artists, labels, and industry observers:

• High download volumes can still drive substantial revenue when combined with streaming income, as demonstrated by the top-performing single.
• Streaming often provides the bulk of revenue for many tracks, particularly for songs with large play counts across platforms.
• Week-over-week percentage changes (where provided) offer insight into momentum and short-term trends for individual singles.
