Lana Del Rey returns to the Billboard charts this week with her new single 'Henry, Come On' — and she makes quite the entrance. The track doesn't just appear on one or two tallies…it debuts on 10 different rankings at once. That's a solid showing for a song that hasn't yet become a runaway smash, but thanks to its cross-genre appeal, it manages to score an impressive number of placements across a wide range of lists.
'Henry, Come On' performs so well right out of the gate for two primary reasons. First, the single sold well enough to earn a spot on rankings that focus specifically on digital purchases, and it was streamed in solid numbers too, which brought it to tallies dedicated to those forms of consumption.
Billboard classifies 'Henry, Come On' as both rock and alternative. That genre flexibility means the track can appear on tallies focused on each of those musical styles individually, as well as on combined rock and alternative rankings. It even reached some non-genre-specific lists.
While 'Henry, Come On' reaches double-digit Billboard rankings in its debut frame, it manages to crack the top 10 on just two of them. The track starts at No. 4 on the Alternative Digital Song Sales chart and at No. 5 on the Rock Digital Song Sales list. Somewhat surprisingly, though, the tune doesn't sell quite enough to land on the all-genre Digital Song Sales tally this week.
According to Luminate, 'Henry, Come On' sold 1,300 copies in the U.S. during its first full tracking frame. That figure is enough to make Del Rey's latest a top seller in her primary genres, but not quite enough to compete with the biggest releases across all styles at the moment.
'Henry, Come On' barely sneaks onto the Hot 100. The cut debuts at No. 90 this week, showing that while it's a bestseller in its genres and a fairly strong streamer, it hasn't yet crossed over and become a broader, mainstream hit, at least not yet.
'Henry, Come On' serves as the lead single from Del Rey's forthcoming album, which has gone through some notable changes recently. The full-length was originally titled Lasso, then briefly retitled The Right Person Will Stay. Now, it seems that the country hybrid set — one that will reportedly blend elements of Del Rey's signature sound with country influences — has changed names once again and currently doesn't have an official release date.
Just one week after 'Henry, Come On' arrived, Del Rey dropped 'Bluebird,' the second single from the still-untitled project. That track is expected to hit the Billboard charts in the coming days.

Alex Warren's ‘Ordinary' Hits No. 1 on Billboard Hot 100

Alex Warren's 'Ordinary' ascends to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming the singer-songwriter's first leader on the list. It rises from No. 4, after reaching a previous No. 2 best. More from Billboard Ye Says He 'Dreams' of Apologizing to Jay-Z Addison Rae Says She Used to Get Paid $20 by Record Labels to Post TikTok Videos: 'It Was Actually Really Sketch' Pusha T Not a Fan of Drake's UMG Lawsuit: 'It Just Kind of Cheapens the Art' Warren becomes the first male soloist to earn an initial Hot 100 No. 1 this year. 'Ordinary,' the 1,181st No. 1 in the Hot 100's 66-year history, rose to the top of both the Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts in May. On the Hot 100, Warren charted one prior entry, 'Burning Down' (No. 69 peak, last October). Concurrent with the coronation of 'Ordinary,' he adds his second top 40 Hot 100 hit, as 'Bloodline,' with Jelly Roll, debuts at No. 32. Before concentrating on music full-time, Warren grew a following in Hype House, a group of TikTok content creators that frequently collaborated. He signed to Atlantic Records in 2022. 'In my career, I have been so open with my friends who follow me,' Warren, who co-authored 'Ordinary,' told Billboard earlier this year. 'They know everything about me and we're so connected, and I love that. I'm thinking of these people while I'm writing these songs, because I'm thinking about what I would want to hear if I was still going through that.' Browse the full rundown of this week's top 10 below. The Hot 100 blends all-genre U.S. streaming (official audio and official video), radio airplay and sales data, the lattermost metric reflecting purchases of physical singles and digital tracks from full-service digital music retailers; digital singles sales from direct-to-consumer (D2C) sites are excluded from chart calculations. All charts (dated June 7, 2025) will update on tomorrow, June 3. For all chart news, you can follow @billboard and @billboardcharts on both X, formerly known as Twitter, and Instagram.

Luminate reviews and authenticates data. In partnership with Billboard, data deemed suspicious or unverifiable is removed, using established criteria, before final chart calculations are made and published. 'Ordinary' tallied 21 million official streams (down 1% week-over-week), 43.5 million radio airplay audience impressions (up 15%) and 8,000 sold (up 24%) in the United States May 23-29. Boosting its profile, Warren performed the song on the American Music Awards, broadcast on CBS, May 26. The track rebounds 3-1 for a fifth week atop the Digital Song Sales chart and 6-4 on Streaming Songs, after four weeks at the summit. It reaches the top five on Radio Songs (7-5), as it becomes Warren's first No. 1 on a Billboard airplay chart, rising to the top of Adult Pop Airplay. Warren's 'Ordinary' is the first 'ordinary'-titled Hot 100 No. 1. Here's a look at all 10 not-so-'ordinary'-named songs that have hit the chart: 'Ordinary,' Alex Warren, No. 1 peak (one week to date), 2025 'Ordinary World,' Duran Duran, No. 3, 1993 'Ordinary People,' John Legend, No. 24, 2005 'No Ordinary Love,' Sade, No. 28, 1993 'Ordinary Day,' Vanessa Carlton, No. 30, 2002 'Ordinary Life,' Chad Brock, No. 39, 1999 'Ordinary Things,' Ariana Grande feat. Nonna, No. 55, 2024 'Ordinary,' The Weeknd, No. 72, 2016 'Ordinary Love,' U2, No. 84, 2014 'Ordinary Girl,' Hannah Montana, No. 91, 2010 'Ordinary' hits No. 1 in its 16th week on the Hot 100. It's the fifth song to reign for the first time in 2025, following fellow steady risers in Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars' 'Die With a Smile' (20 weeks to No. 1) and Kendrick Lamar and SZA's 'Luther' (13 weeks); conversely, Morgan Wallen's 'What I Want,' featuring Tate McRae, debuted at No. 1 a week ago and Travis Scott's '4X4' launched on top in February. Titles have taken an average of 10.2 weeks to hit No. 1 on the Hot 100 so far in 2025, the most of any year this decade, with one music industry professional theorizing that, currently, 'the whole nature of artist development takes time.' Avg. Weeks to No. 1 on Hot 100 in the 2020s: 2025: 10.2 2024: 4.3 2023: 8.9 2022: 9 2021: 3.5 2020: 5.8 (Since the Hot 100 adopted electronically-monitored Luminate data in late 1991, hits have taken an average of 8.4 weeks to No. 1.)Kendrick Lamar and SZA's 'Luther' holds at No. 5 after 13 weeks atop the Hot 100. It adds a 23rd week at No. 1 on both the multimetric Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and Hot Rap Songs charts – surpassing Lamar's 'Not Like Us' (in 2024-25) for the longest command on Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs (dating to October 1958, when the chart became the genre's all-encompassing songs ranking). SZA, meanwhile, ranks third with 21 weeks atop Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs with 'Kill Bill' in 2022-23. Morgan Wallen's 'What I Want,' featuring Tate McRae, dips to No. 2 on the Hot 100, a week after it soared in as Wallen's fourth No. 1 and McRae's first. It claims a second week atop the multimetric Hot Country Songs chart. Wallen follows on the Hot 100 with the No. 2-peaking 'Just in Case' (2-3) and 'I'm the Problem' (3-4), as I'm the Problem, the parent set of all three songs, secures a second week at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. Shaboozey's 'A Bar Song (Tipsy)' rebounds 9-6 on the Hot 100, following its record-tying 19 weeks at No. 1 beginning last July, and Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars' 'Die With a Smile' dips 6-7 following five weeks at No. 1 beginning in January. Teddy Swims' 'Lose Control,' which led the Hot 100 for a week in March 2024, and became the year's No. 1 song, climbs 11-8. It posts a record-extending 63rd week in the top 10 and a record-padding 93rd week on the chart overall. Drake's 'Nokia' rises 12-9 on the Hot 100, after reaching No. 2. Rounding out the Hot 100's top 10, Benson Boone's 'Beautiful Things' bumps 14-10, after peaking at No. 2. It adds a 70th week on the survey, becoming just the 10th title ever to reach the milestone.

Caamp frontman Taylor Meier says he's ‘C-list folk singer famous,' but he sold out the Salt Shed

Caamp frontman Taylor Meier isn't fazed by writer's block. 'I'm never like, 'Oh, I wonder if I have the songs,'' he admits over the phone from home in Columbus, Ohio, during that liminal space between intense rehearsals and the kickoff of a 32-date tour that brings the banjo-infused folk rockers to the Salt Shed Fairgrounds for two sold-out shows on Thursday and Friday to promote this week's release of a long-awaited fifth album, 'Copper Changes Color.' 'They're coming to me at such a rate right now and such a sincerity,' he says. And, yes, he understands how infuriating that sounds. 'I'm friends with enough musicians and enough creatives at this point to be super aware of what the inverse looks like, and to see people struggle and go dry and doubt themselves,' he says. 'I'm sure that a slower era is on my horizon at some point.' The deceptively simple secret to this prolific output that keeps Caamp (in addition to Sumbuck, his solo side project) awash in deeply personal, bittersweet vignettes? 'I don't shy away from writing. If it comes, I write the song,' he says bluntly. He fears probing deeper into the mystery of his craft. 'If I knew, I don't think I'd really be able to do what I do,' he attests. 'Yes, it's from me in a way, but it's also very much for me. I do this stuff because it truly makes my soul happy. What I do makes me smile. I'm lucky to still be in love with it all.' That rose-colored sheen dipped in 2023 after eight years of grinding it out on the road and in the studio, first as a duo with Caamp co-founder and childhood friend Evan Westfall (banjo) and then with an expanded, permanent lineup including Matt Vinson (bass), Joseph Kavalec (keyboards) and Nicholas Falk (drums). Despite incremental successes (late-night TV appearances, conquering Colorado's iconic Red Rocks, major festival slots, a spot on former president Barack Obama's summer playlist and strong chart showings culminating with 2022's 'Lavender Days' reaching the No. 5 spot on Billboard's Americana/Folk Albums chart), Meier abruptly pulled the plug on all the band's remaining appearances for the year citing 'untimely knocks to my health' in an Instagram post and offered refunds to bewildered ticket holders. Speculation percolated online, some of it wild and a lot of it invasive, like most internet chatter is, which didn't upset Meier as much as it stunned him. 'I'm not even famous!' he exclaims. 'I am C-list folk singer famous. I can't even imagine what the actual tops of my industry go through.' Apart from scattered one-off dates, Caamp flew under the radar until the 'Somewhere' EP broke through the winter doldrums in February with Meier tenderly pointing out in his sandy squall of a voice on the first single 'Let Things Go' that maintaining a death grip on the entanglements and duties battling for our attention is a recipe for disaster. He doesn't mince words in the lyrics: 'You can let it roar / You can let it out / You can let things go / And anything your heart needs to make you feel better.' 'That song is the anecdote. It's not an answer by any means, but it's just kind of me trying to sing a lesson to myself,' he reveals. 'I chose to keep the details of my struggle private and will continue to do so, but that's the sentiment that got me through it and that's what I want to sing to my fans every night.' Gearing up to leave the comforts of home behind takes some grit, especially for a bunch of self-described 'homebodies.' 'We love our houses, routine, community,' Vinson admits in a separate phone call, stressing that he's not complaining about the road, it's just 'you caught us at the exact perfect time when we're leaving in one week and it kind of seems like the world is ending.' Pre-tour jitters aside, Vinson says the band is 'fully, fully rested' and 'morale is good.' Meier emphasizes the interpersonal work everyone put in during the break to come back together stronger. 'Heal the heart and fix the head,' he intones like a mantra. And just like Dorothy and her ruby slippers, the path to this place of ease always lurked inside him. 'You have all the tools the whole time, but it's just what you choose to pay attention to. Maybe I was paying attention to the wrong things — whatever it was. But I feel as if I'm dialed into the right things now,' he explains. In between the expected campfire harmonies and a left turn into Strokes-era nostalgia, the gorgeous 'Copper Changes Color' lays bare Meier's evolving mental state. In the jostling 'Mistakes,' he sings, 'Feels like I'm just trying to keep my plants alive / And trying to drink water,' while in the plaintive, piano-driven 'Living & Dying & In Between,' he reveals 'I wanna live/I don't want to die/They can feel so much alike.' Madi Diaz guests on the gauzy 'One True Way,' which contemplates if we're really meant for one thing. And 'Drive' cinematically rides off into the sunset, unsure of the destination, but certain of how to get there. The album's 11 tracks don't strive to be confessional, just open. 'It's kind of been this crazy process of, as I've gotten older, of getting a little bit more transparent,' Meier explains. 'Before, it could have been maybe construed on life stuff that I was wanting to feel. But there's bits of me in there now and I don't really hide from it or hide behind it.' Recorded in bursts between Oregon, Texas and New York, the sessions for 'Copper Changes Color' adhered to the same process in place since the band's self-titled debut in 2016. Meier brings in almost fully-fleshed out songs, which the band learns on the spot and then it's go-time. 'It's not as do or die as it sounds,' Vinson reassures. Minor things can be added or edited out months later, but importantly, 'there's an element of something live in everything Caamp has truly ever done.' That ability of the five members to lock-in on stage or in the studio without going 'through the grinder' to achieve it keeps the band from straying too far. 'Our chemistry playing is something that will never not amaze me. Just being in a room together and the telepathy of our musicianship, which is fueled by our friendship — that will never get old,' Vinson says. Meier shares the sentiment. 'There's always gonna be other music and other projects and other collaborators in my life,' he admits. But, 'I always come back home.'

Peter Murphy Cancels 2025 Tour Dates Due To Ongoing ‘Health Issues'

Bauhaus frontman Peter Murphy has announced he will not be hitting the road this summer as planned, with ongoing health issues to blame for the nascent cancellation. Murphy announced his news via social media on Monday (June 2), informing fans that, 'It is with regret that, due to recent health issues, I will be unable to perform for you this summer. ' More from Billboard Cynthia Erivo Opens Up About Her Queerness: 'The More Yourself You Are, The Better Understanding Starts to Happen' The Roots Apologize to Fans After First Day of 2025 Roots Picnic Marred By Long Lines: 'Safety Will Always Be Our Number 1 Priority' Rod Stewart Postpones Las Vegas Colosseum Residency Gig Due to Unspecified Illness 'I am very much saddened by this news,' he added. 'This situation is hopefully temporary, and we will be able to announce shows in support of Silver Shade at some point in the near future. Thank you so much for your patience and understanding.' The forthcoming tour dates were set to see Murphy touring in support of Silver Shade, his first new solo album since 2014, with festival dates scheduled throughout the U.K. and Europe between June and August. Murphy's live appearances have been limited in recent years, with a heart attack necessitating the postponement of his 2019 residency at New York venue Le Poisson Rouge. A reformed Bauhaus would later cancel a run of North American dates in 2022 after stating that Murphy would be 'entering a rehabilitation facility to attend to his health and well-being.' In early 2023, the Celebrating David Bowie tour was rescheduled after Murphy underwent 'an unexpected medical procedure,' before he dropped out entirely 'due to ill health and doctor's orders to rest and recover.' In December 2024, an upcoming U.K. and European leg of the same tour was cancelled after it was announced Murphy had 'suddenly taken ill.' Murphy rose to fame as a member of Bauhaus in the late '70s, with their debut single 'Bela Lugosi's Dead' being considered one of the pioneering gothic rock tracks. Bauhaus split in 1983 after releasing four albums, and Murphy launched a solo career in 1986. His third album, 1989's Deep, would peak at No. 44 on the Billboard 200, with the single 'Cuts You Up' reaching No. 55 on the Hot 100 and topping the Modern Rock Tracks chart the following year. Bauhaus' reunions would result in a final album in 2008, with the group releasing their final single, 'Drink the New Wine' in early 2022. In May 2025, Murphy released his latest studio album, Silver Shade, which featured contributions from Boy George alongside members of Tool and Nine Inch Nails.
