Haim Kickstarts Its Comeback With A New Charting Single
'Relationships,' the latest single by Haim, opens on a pair of Billboard rankings this frame, and it earns a top 40 strat on both of them. The cut performs best on the Hot Alternative Songs chart, which ranks the most-consumed alternative-only tracks in the U.S. every week. There, the track launches at No. 17.
Just a few rungs below that position, the band also appears on the Hot Rock & Alternative Songs chart. On that tally, 'Relationships' begins its time at No. 23. That ranking features the top-performing titles that fall under both the rock and alternative umbrellas, making it slightly more competitive.
As 'Relationships' lands at No. 17 on the Hot Alternative Songs chart, Haim scores just its third-ever placement on that tally. Over on the Hot Rock & Alternative Songs chart, the act is far more successful. This latest debut marks its sixteenth showing on the list.
'Relationships' marks the first completely new tune from Haim in quite some time. The last track the trio released was 'Home,' which appeared on the Barbie movie soundtrack in 2023. Prior to that, the band shared a one-off single titled 'Lost Track,' which didn't make a major commercial impact.
Back in 2021, the group was still promoting its album Women in Music Pt. III with the single 'Gasoline.' That track featured Swift and managed to become another special win for the band, thanks largely to the starpower that the Eras Tour powerhouse brought to the table.
As Haim returns to the Billboard charts, one of its members is enjoying a solo surge at the same time. Danielle Haim appears alongside Bon Iver on a new single titled 'If Only I Could Wait,' which also reaches the Hot Rock & Alternative Songs chart. The track starts at No. 44 this period.
With 'Relationships' now officially charting and a new chapter beginning, it looks like Haim is ready to jump back into full promotional mode. The band's last album, Women in Music Pt. III, dropped in 2020 and was met with critical acclaim. Five years is a long time to wait for a project, but the sisters will surely make the patience exhibited by fans worth it.

Michael Peregrine: 60 years ago, the Beatles invaded Comiskey Park
Before Beyoncé and Taylor Swift were John, Paul, George and Ringo. The Fab Four. The spearhead of the British Invasion. Then, and probably still now, the most popular rock 'n' roll band in the world. Wednesday is the 60th anniversary of the Beatles' performance at Comiskey Park. You read that right — the Lads from Liverpool played at the Baseball Palace of the World in Bridgeport, not at the future national historical landmark at Clark and Addison streets. With the band's popularity at global proportions, the event at the time was one of the most anticipated musical performances in Chicago history. The actual performance was the rock 'n' roll equivalent of a day-night doubleheader. The band appeared in the afternoon before a crowd of 25,000 people and again in the evening before 37,000. Note that the White Sox were then averaging only about 14,000 fans per game. The Beatles had arrived in Chicago red-hot, in the middle of a wildly popular national tour that began with the famous concert in New York's Shea Stadium. They were riding the crest of popularity from multiple No. 1 hits, and the release, only a few days earlier, of their second movie, 'Help!' Their journey to the Comiskey concert was typical of the bedlam that accompanied their performances. Band members were flying into Chicago from Houston, the site of their most recent concert. According to news reports, they were not allowed to land at O'Hare airport due to the authorities' concern that their presence, and the associated fan attention, might play havoc on airport operations. They were diverted to Midway and had to make an arduous cross-town drive to their accommodations at the Sahara Inn North at 3939 Mannheim Road, next to O'Hare, where they had stayed during an initial 1964 visit to Chicago. According to news reports, band management had avoided prime downtown hotels for security purposes. Yet their plan was reportedly betrayed by leaks from the hotel staff, which quickly led to pandemonium. Throngs of young fans swarmed the hotel, forcing the band to leave through a back corridor, an ongoing occupational hazard for the Beatles. According to the Beatles' recorded history, the Comiskey Park set list was a familiar one to fans of the band's early years: a short version of 'Twist and Shout,' followed by 'She's a Woman,' 'I Feel Fine.' 'Dizzy Miss Lizzy,' 'Ticket To Ride,' 'Everybody's Trying To Be My Baby,' 'Can't Buy Me Love,' 'Baby's in Black,' 'Act Naturally,' 'A Hard Day's Night,' 'Help!' and 'I'm Down.' It's a fair bet that a large percentage of Chicago baby boomers could sing the lyrics to each of those songs on a moment's notice. In many ways, the summer of 1965 represented the height of Beatlemania and the hair-pulling, foot-stomping, stage-crashing euphoria that it typified. The band would, of course, go on to greater commercial and artistic success and acclaim. But it was changing, the times were changing and the music was changing, too. 'Rubber Soul' and 'Revolver' arrived in late 1965 and early 1966, respectively. 'Sgt. Pepper' and 'Magical Mystery Tour' followed in 1967. The Beatles stopped touring at the end of 1966 and disbanded in 1970, which makes the Comiskey Park concert a unique moment in time. Every generation is entitled to its own form of musical rapture. For the baby boomers, it was — and remains — Beatlemania. And it lives on though films such as Martin Scorsese's 'Beatles '64' and Disney's 'Let it Be'; through documentaries such as 'McCartney 3,2,1'; through two new books about Ringo Starr; and through Ringo and Paul McCartney's constant touring. And the indefatigable McCartney is expected to pack the United Center for his Nov. 24 and 25 concerts. Old Comiskey Park is of course gone now; they paved that paradise and put up a parking lot. But the location of home plate has been preserved in a faithfully created marble marker, inlaid in the surface of the lot just north of the new Rate Field, by Gate 5 in Lot B at the northeast corner of 35th Street and Shields Avenue. So the next time you're at a Sox game, go over and stand in at the home plate marker. Look to the northeast toward an imaginary second base, where the Beatles' stage was once set up and where the band stood in its classic formation. Then close your eyes for a second and believe in yesterday. When you were just 17. You know what I mean.

Taylor Swift gushes over boyfriend Travis Kelce during album launch: ‘He's like a human exclamation point'
Taylor Swift has openly gushed over her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, as she made her podcasting debut on New Heights alongside his older brother, Jason Kelce. During Wednesday's episode —which also featured the Grammy winner announcing her 12th studio album, The Life of a Showgirl — the pair discussed their relationship and how it first started almost two years ago. It all began when the Kansas City Chiefs tight end admitted on New Heights that he tried — and failed — to give Swift his number after attending one of her Eras Tour concerts. He revealed on July 26, 2023, that he made Swift a friendship bracelet, in line with Swiftie tradition, but he was left 'disappointed' when things didn't go according to plan. 'He didn't even reach out to our management... He thought that 'cause he knows the elevator lady, he could talk to her about just getting down to my dressing room,' the 'Karma' singer recalled. Despite his initial failed attempt, the two later got together, where Swift admitted that during their first few dates, it 'kinda felt more like I was in an 80s John Hughes movie and he was standing outside my room with a boom box like 'I wanna date you!' 'I was like if this guy isn't crazy, which is a big if, this is sort of what I've been writing songs about wanting to happen to me since I was a teenager,' she said. 'I knew that he wasn't crazy the first couple of times that we talked, I was like he's truly getting to know me in a way that's very natural, very pure, very normal.' 'Just the way that he could make me laugh so immediately about normal things. Travis is a vibe booster in everyone's life that he's in. He's like a human exclamation point,' she added. Travis also took the opportunity to praise his girlfriend as he told both the podcast listeners and her, 'She makes me so much better…It's like I've known you like you've knocked my socks off.' 'She blew me away,' he added. The couple first confirmed dating rumors in September 2023, when the 'Mean' singer attended a Chiefs game alongside Travis's mother, Donna, where she appeared to yell 'let's f***ing go' in response to his third-quarter touchdown reception. Later, the two were filmed leaving Arrowhead Stadium together — with Kelce wearing a 1989-inspired denim outfit, no less. The two escaped the crowd in Kelce's convertible, according to photos and videos posted online, and he reportedly rented out a restaurant for a private, post-game celebration.
