The purpose of these weekly Fact Check posts is to share the data that helps tell the story of a song…the stuff that reveals behavior and may help you spot hits a lot quicker than you might have in the past. We’re sharing ALL the data…not just the data that only helps our song look better. If you haven’t looked through the charts in a while, it’s worth your time.

This week, “Hard Fought Hallelujah” is the #1 most-streamed song in Christian music with just shy of 3M weekly streams. It’s about to go BONKERS on 2/7 with Jellyroll’s feature. 😳

Overall, streaming across the Top 200 was down but the bright spot was a song from Sons Of Sunday which is a new project launched by Elevation Worship’s Chris Brown, Pastor Steven Furtick, Brandon Lake, Chandler Moore, Pat Barrett and Leeland. Their song “GOD DID!” just released on 1/17 and got 537k streams in it’s first week.
