For most of the summer, Kate Bush's “Running Up That Hill (A Deal With God)” has been in the top ten of the Billboard Hot 100. It peaked at number three. The song is 37-years-old, and its popularity is driven by its appearance in the show Stranger Things.
This is unusual, but it’s not unprecedented.
In the spring and summer of 1974, Scott Joplin’s “The Entertainer” was in the top ten of the Billboard Hot 100. It peaked at number three. The song was 72-years-old, and its popularity was driven by its appearance in the movie The Sting.
