Creedence Clearwater Revival's Chart Comeback Includes Both Albums And Songs
This week, Creedence Clearwater Revival returns not only to multiple rankings, but appears on different tallies with a pair of hugely successful titles.
The band reappears highest on the Top Album Sales chart, the weekly list of the bestselling full-lengths and EPs throughout America. On that ranking, the group comes in at No. 50 with Chronicle: The 20 Greatest Hits. That set, which previously topped out at No. 10, has now spent well over a decade as one of the bestselling releases in the country, and it casually slips away and then reappears with regularity.
In the past tracking frame throughout the U.S., Chronicle sold just over 2,000 copies, according to Luminate.
Chronicle's performance on the Billboard charts is mixed this frame. As it returns to the Top Album Sales list, it rises on the Top Rock & Alternative Albums tally, holds steady on the Top Rock Albums ranking, and declines slightly on the Billboard 200.
Just one of Creedence Clearwater Revival's tracks appears on a Billboard chart — and only barely. "Have You Ever Seen the Rain" reenters the Billboard Global 200 as it officially becomes one of the 200 most-consumed tracks all around the world. The cut narrowly manages to find space on the list, breaking back in at No. 199.
If it can hold on just a while longer — only two more weeks — "Have You Ever Seen the Rain" will become Creedence Clearwater Revival's first track to spend a full year on the Billboard Global 200. One of just two tunes by the band to appear anywhere on the list, it already stands as the group's highest-rising win, having peaked at No. 92. Only "Fortunate Son" has also landed on the list, and it only spent one frame in second-to-last place in the summer of 2024 before disappearing.

What to Stream: Eddie Murphy and Pete Davidson team up and 'King of the Hill' and 'Wednesday' return
New Orleans legend Big Freedia returning with a new gospel album and the acting trio of Eddie Murphy, Pete Davidson and Keke Palmer teaming up for the armored truck action comedy 'The Pickup' are some of the new television, films, music and games headed to a device near you. Also among the streaming offerings worth your time, as selected by The Associated Press' entertainment journalists: The animated 'King of the Hill' returns after a 15-year pause, the first half of season two of 'Wednesday' lands on Netflix appropriately on Wednesday and the 'Welcome to Wrexham' spinoff 'NECAXA' premieres with Eva Longoria. New movies to stream from Aug. 4-10 — Eddie Murphy and Pete Davidson are armored truck drivers coerced into a heist in the action comedy 'The Pickup.' Keke Palmer plays the criminal mastermind who disrupts their routine drive. Eva Longoria, Andrew Dice Clay and Marshawn Lynch co-star in the movie, which made headlines during its Atlanta production after several crew members were injured in a collision during the shoot. It streams on Prime Video on Aug. 6. — Filmmaker Osgood Perkins' latest horror 'The Monkey' will be streaming on Hulu starting Thursday. The follow-up to his breakout hit 'Longlegs' was inspired by a 1980 Stephen King story. Theo James plays twin brothers whose lives turn to chaos when a demonic toy monkey stars causes deaths around them. In her review for The Associated Press, Jocelyn Noveck wrote that it felt 'uneven.' She added that, 'surely there will be an audience for the creatively rendered gore. The rest of us may feel left with a witty, visually arresting, highly inventive quasi-mess on our hands.' — If you haven't had enough Pedro Pascal this year, he's a key part of Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck's 'Freaky Tales,' streaming on HBO Max on Friday, Aug. 8. The anthology action comedy follows four interconnected stories in Oakland, California, in 1987. Before the film's Sundance debut in 2024, Boden told the AP that 'It's a movie lover's movie … It has one foot in reality and then one foot just launches off into fantasy.' — AP Film Writer Lindsey Bahr New music to stream from Aug. 4-10— New Orleans legend Big Freedia, the queen of bounce music (and a notable Beyoncé collaborator, lest anyone forget the zeitgeist-shifting 'Renaissance' ), is back with a new album. But 'Pressing Onward' is new territory for the artist. It's her first gospel album and it still manages to induce as much booty-shaking as ever before. The difference this time is that her vibrant sonic celebrations are all about faith. Start with 'Holy Shuffle' featuring Billy Porter or 'Sunday Best' with Tamar Braxton. It's good for the soul. — For several years now, one of the most exciting names in heavy rock music has been BABYMETAL, Japanese kawaii metal trio that marries pop idol culture with chugging riffs, full-throated vocals, blast beats and bilingual lyricism. They've inspired fanfare across the globe, and on Friday, they'll release their fifth studio album, 'METAL FORTH.' It features guest spots from Poppy, Spiritbox and Rage Against the Machine's Tom Morello. Clearly, it's not for the faint of heart. — AP Music Writer Maria Sherman New series to stream from Aug. 4-10 — Would you believe it's been 15 years since 'King of the Hill' went off the air? The animated comedy returns Monday with a new 14th season on its new home, Hulu. All 10-episodes drop at once for bingeing. The show picks up give or take 10 years after the events of season 13. Hank and Peggy are both retired after returning from Saudi Arabia, where Hank had been working. Their kids are now grown. Adjusting to life as retirees and in the current political climate in America presents challenges for the couple. — Another long wait comes to an end Wednesday when the first half of season two of 'Wednesday' premieres on Netflix. The show follows teen Wednesday Addams (played by Jenna Ortega) as she studies at a boarding school called Nevermore Academy. Ortega's deliciously deadpan delivery earned her an Emmy Award nomination for her work on Season 1. Catherine Zeta-Jones and Luis Guzmán play Wednesday's parents, Morticia and Gomez. — Seth Rogen and Rose Byrne proved that yes, men and women can be just friends in the first season of their Apple TV+ comedy called 'Platonic. ' The codependent buddies, Will and Sylvia are back with a new season on Wednesday. We meet them again and Will is engaged to his boss — who doesn't like Sylvia. And Sylvia is planning their wedding. Will is struggling to open his bar and Sylvia's event-planning business has yet to take off. — More than two years ago, AMC Networks pulled the plug on its sci-fi comedy 'Demascus ' as a cost-cutting measure even though production was already completed. Tubi has rescued the show, starring Okieriete Onaodowan, and it premieres Thursday. It's about a man who begins using an experimental technology that allows him to experience different timelines of his life. — The 'Outlander' prequel 'Outlander: Blood of my Blood' debuts on Starz on Friday, Aug. 8. It's about the parents of Claire and Jamie from 'Outlander.' Unlike its predecessor, 'Blood of my Blood' does not have source material by author Diana Gabaldon but its showrunner Matthew B. Roberts also works on 'Outlander' and is very familiar with the lore. The cast is already filming a second season. It streams on the Starz App or through platforms like Hulu and Prime Video. — The 'Welcome to Wrexham' spinoff 'NECAXA ' premieres Thursday on FX on Hulu. After their success owning the Welsh soccer team Wrexham AFC, Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney join Eva Longoria and buy a stake in a Mexican club, NECAXA, 'It's more than winning games. We're gonna win hearts. We're gonna inspire pride. We're gonna empower the team,' Longoria says in the trailer. — Alicia Rancilio New video games to play from Aug. 4-10 — The Mafia series from 2K Games has moved from 1930s Chicago to 1940s New York to 1960s New Orleans, but now it's going back in time and space. Mafia: The Old Country aims to deliver an origin story of sorts, traveling to 1900s Sicily. Enzo Favara is a young man who's suffered a rough childhood, and he is hoping to improve his status by working for the Torrisi crime family. That means pulling off heists, punching out rivals and killing anyone who might threaten the Don. The cars may be slower and the weapons may not be as slick, but if you're bummed out about having to wait for the next Grand Theft Auto, you might want to spend some time with the original gangsters. It arrives Friday, Aug. 8, on PlayStation 5, Xbox X/S and PC. — Lou Kesten

Music fans voted in a poll published Friday (Aug. 1) on Billboard, choosing the pair's fresh collaboration as their favorite new release of the past week.

Mariah and Kali's collab track topped the poll by a landslide, bringing in more than 57% of the vote.

('very intentional, very grown woman,' Uchis commented of their shoot on Instagram.) The chorus of the song says it all: 'And so what? I fell, you fell in love a couple times/ Tell me, what's it to ya? Tell me, is it a crime/ To fall, to fall in love, in love a couple times?/ Tell me, what's it to ya? Tell me, is it a crime to fall?'

BTS Matches Taylor Swift In A Rare Chart Feat
Live albums are not uncommon, especially in today's world where the technology to record performances and concerts is more readily accessible and easier to use than ever. But for most artists, recording and releasing live sets doesn't typically lead to major success on the Billboard charts. Live albums rarely perform as well as studio efforts, and it's relatively uncommon for one to break into the top 10 on the Billboard 200, the chart company's most competitive ranking of EPs and full-lengths in the United States. So far in 2025, only two live albums have managed to reach that region — and that number doubles this week. BTS Returns to the Top 10 BTS returns to the highest tier on the Billboard 200 this week with its first live album, Permission to Dance On Stage (Live). The set marks something of a comeback for the South Korean boy band, as all of its members had to step away from their music careers to fulfill South Korea's mandatory military service, which they have now finished. The project debuts at No. 10 with 43,000 equivalent units shifted in its first seven-day tracking period. Taylor Swift Swift's One-Week Smash Permission to Dance On Stage (Live) is one of only two live albums to crack the top 10 on the Billboard 200 this year. BTS joins Taylor Swift in this uncommon feat, according to Billboard. Just a few months ago, in January, Swift scored a new bestselling live title with Lover: Live From Paris. The vinyl version, which was available only for a short time, instantly became a must-have for Swifties. The set reappeared out of nowhere at No. 2 on the Billboard 200, narrowly missing giving the singer-songwriter another chart leader. Lover: Live From Paris then disappeared one week later, and hasn't returned since. BTS Scores Across Multiple Billboard Rankings Permission to Dance On Stage (Live) opens inside the top 10 on all three Billboard charts it debuts on this week, though it earns the lowest start on the Billboard 200. The project brings BTS back to No. 1 on the World Albums list, where the group has now scored 14 rulers. The septet also nearly conquers the Top Album Sales chart, but instead, Permission to Dance On Stage (Live) starts in the runner-up spot behind Don't Tap the Glass, Tyler, the Creator's surprise new full-length.
