Michael Jackson and Guitarrica resist Hurricane Quevedo

As we have already told you in the album review, all the important entries of the week in Spain are the 12 new songs by Quevedo, which join ‘Scandic’ and ‘Ni drunk’, which had already been number 1. The new number 1 in Spain is Quevedo’s collaboration with Elvis Crespo, but there are other entries that are worth commenting on.

The most important are the arrival of 2 Michael Jackson songs to the Spanish top 100. These are ‘Billie Jean’ in official position 34 and ‘Beat It’ in position 46. These are the two favorite songs of the Spanish public after the premiere of the ‘Michael’ film, which is achieving stratospheric box office figures. And these two are also the favorite songs globally: we find ‘Billie Jean’ already in the top 3 on Spotify, and ‘Beat It’ in 6. Other songs positioning outside of Spain are ‘Don’t Stop Til You Get Enough’ and ‘Human Nature’, in the current top 20 globally.

Another song that is surprising to appear in the top 100 is ‘Calypso’ by Guitarricadelafuente. The artist is more into selling albums than singles, but he still manages to place ‘Calypso’ at number 89 in such a competitive week. Their latest album ‘Spanish Leather’ rises from position 30 to position 27 in its 50th week on the list. It is certified as a gold record.

Closing the list of new releases is ‘Una baby en Santiago’ by Lil Naay, directly at number 95.
