Unprecedented Trend: Older Songs Dominate 2025 Music ChartsIn an unusual turn of events, the music charts are seeing a surge in older songs from 2024, with sixteen of them still in the top 25 as of late November. This years top ten includes four songs from last year, and Chappell Roans 2020 hit Pink Pony Club has surpassed her 2024 hit. Billboard has changed its rules due to this trend, and experts attribute it to factors like release schedules, streaming fragmentation, and a perceived drought of superstar albums. Jaime Marconette, Vice President of Music Insights at Luminate, suggests a nostalgia and escapism effect is driving this phenomenon, similar to the Recession Pop trend from 2007 to 2012.
