“Memories” leads a sweep of the top two spots on Top Movie Songs for Venom: The Last Dance, which was released Oct. 25 and is the first film in the series since 2021’s Venom: Let There Be Carnage. The song earned 8.8 million official on-demand U.S. streams in October 2024, plus 1,000 downloads sold, according to Luminate.
Released in 2019, “Memories” is Maroon 5’s most recent top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at No. 2 in January 2020.
It’s followed by Queen’s “Don’t Stop Me Now,” from 1978’s Jazz, allowing Venom: The Last Dance to become the first film to occupy the top two of the chart, coming in its second month of existence. Bee Gees’ “Tragedy” from Beetlejuice Beetlejuice led the inaugural ranking, followed by Taylor Swift’s “My Tears Ricochet” from It Ends With Us.
Speaking of It Ends With Us, Post Malone’s “White Iverson” (13.3 million streams) ranks at No. 3. It’s followed by Jungle’s “Back on 74” at No. 4. “Back on 74,” with 8.1 million streams and 1,000 downloads, was featured in Netflix’s Lonely Planet, released Oct. 11. It’s the first time a movie that premiered on a streaming service reaches the chart, as the films represented on the September 2024 tally all had theatrical releases.
A pair of songs from Maren Morris released as part of Dreamworks’ The Wild Robot also make the chart, with “Kiss the Sky” (No. 6; 1.4 million streams, 1,000 downloads) and “Even When I’m Not” (No. 9; 790,000 streams, 1,000 downloads) representing the second and third chart appearances for animated films, after Transformers One made the September 2024 list with Quavo, Ty Dolla $ign and ARE WE DREAMING’s “If I Fall.”
