Couch potatoes are clearly settling in with their phones by their side as TV synchs drive the list of biggest movers on the
Shazam USA Top 100.
Netflix’s
Sex Education is responsible for two entries:
Al Green’s 1972 version of
The BeeGees hit “How Can You Mend a Broken Heart” (
Hi/
Fat Possum) and the song that
Sufjan Stevens wrote for the film
Call Me By Your Name, “Mystery of Love” (
Madison Gate).
Ed Sheeran’s “Perfect” (
Atlantic) lands on the list after being used by two different shows in one week,
Showtime’s
Shameless and
ABC’s
The Good Doctor. A 2015 cut from
Shinedown, “How Did You Love” (Atlantic), tops the list after a placement on
9-1-1: Lone Star.
The trend continues in the U.K. where
Warren G f/
Nate Dogg’s “Regulate” (
Island Def Jam) is the biggest mover after being used on
Starz’
Power.
The outlier that bucks the trend is a new song from Def Jam’s
Jhene Aiko, “P*$$y Fairy (OTW).”
