Title: Sam Smith Secures a Top 10 Debut on One Billboard Chart
Sam Smith is currently between album cycles, leading to a hiatus in new music releases. Since the summer of 2023, fans have been eagerly anticipating fresh tunes from the Grammy and Oscar-winning artist. However, Smith's older tracks continue to resonate with audiences, including "La La La," which has sauntered into the top 10 of the TikTok Billboard Top 50 chart.
This isn't the first time "La La La" has found success. Back in 2013, the tune, a collaboration with Naughty Boy, topped the U.K. singles chart, serving as a springboard for both artists' careers. Smith, in particular, has maintained a prominent position in the spotlight since then.
Surprisingly, the duo collectively achieved their first top 10 smash on the TikTok Billboard Top 50 with "La La La." The song's ascension to the chart might be due to its recent resurgence in popularity, with a growing number of younger listeners discovering and incorporating it into their TikTok creations.
"Money on My Mind," another Smith hit, also briefly claimed a spot on the TikTok Billboard Top 50 in December 2024. Recorded around the same time as "La La La," the song debuted at the No. 44 position but quickly fell out of favor, replaced by other popular tunes on the platform.
