Tate McRae’s “Just Keep Watching,” from the F1 soundtrack, rises to No. 1 on Billboard’s Dance … More
For weeks before the movie F1 debuted in theaters, the film was promoted by several tunes featured on its star-studded soundtrack. One such single by Tate McRae, a song titled “Just Keep Watching,” became a quick success on a handful of Billboard charts shortly before the summer blockbuster arrived.
As the Brad Pitt-led project hit theaters on Friday (June 27), “Just Keep Watching” raced up the charts. The track reached No. 1 on one tally for the first time, with McRae replacing one of the biggest pop stars on the planet at the summit.
“Just Keep Watching” Hits No. 1
“Just Keep Watching” revs its engines and drives from No. 3 to No. 1 on the Dance Digital Song Sales chart. McRae’s most recent single reaches the top spot in its third frame on the ranking of the bestselling tracks in America that Billboard classifies specifically under the dance genre label.
Tate McRae Replaces Lady Gaga at No. 1
As McRae rises to No. 1, she replaces Lady Gaga at the top of the Dance Digital Song Sales chart. In the prior frame, “Abracadabra,” the most recent single from Gaga’s album Mayhem, led the charge for a sixteenth nonconsecutive stint. That track swaps spots with “Just Keep Watching,” while Disturbed’s “The Sound of Silence” – the Cyril remix, that is – holds in the runner-up space.
Tate McRae’s Second Career Winner
McRae earns her second career No. 1 as “Just Keep Watching” hits the top of the Dance Digital Song Sales tally. Back in the summer of 2021, she joined producer Regard and Troye Sivan on “You,” which spent five frames leading the chart.
McRae has only scored four appearances on the Dance Digital Song Sales ranking, and all of them have cracked the top five. In addition to both “You” and “Just Keep Watching,” McRae’s own “Revolving Door” peaked at No. 5, while “10:35” with Tiësto reached No. 3.
“Just Keep Watching” Remains a Dance Smash
“Just Keep Watching” is a major win on several of Billboard’s dance rankings as it climbs to the No. 1 spot on the Dance Digital Song Sales chart for the first time. The tune also holds atop the Dance Streaming Songs list and is a non-mover at No. 2 on the Hot Dance/Electronic Songs tally, where it has already led before.
