Bon Jovi Achieves First Pop Radio Chart Top 40 Position in Almost Twenty Years
Bon Jovi, famous for their rock and hard rock tunes, have surprisingly found success at pop radio too. They've racked up over a dozen victories on Billboard's Pop Airplay chart, but it's been a while since they last graced the pop airwaves with a hot track - until now.
This week, Bon Jovi rockets onto the Pop Airplay chart at position 36, sharing the limelight with none other than Pitbull. Their collaboration, "Now or Never," ingeniously uses Bon Jovi's "It's My Life" chorus, transforming it into a dance floor-ready bop. This new track marks Bon Jovi's first top 40 hit at pop radio in almost two decades. Their last appearance on the Pop Airplay chart was back in 2006 with "Who Says You Can't Go Home," which managed a 10-week run and peaked at number 30[1].
"Now or Never" is also making waves on another Billboard pop radio chart. After climbing from number 18 to number 15 on the Adult Pop Airplay list, it now holds the highest position for Bon Jovi and Pitbull on any of Billboard's weekly radio rankings.
The song is also generating buzz on the Hot Dance/Pop Songs chart, which Billboard introduced just a month ago. "Now or Never" maintains its position at number 11, a peak it has reached before[2].
Pitbull has consistently outperformed Bon Jovi on the Pop Airplay chart. With "Now or Never," the multi-genre artist notches up his 40th top 40 hit on the list. Quarter of these tunes have broken into the top 10, and only two have claimed the number one spot.
