With her new album Mayhem still going strong just weeks after its release, Lady Gaga is once again leading several of Billboard's electronic tallies. She dominates one genre-specific roster, thanks largely to her latest offerings, but it's not just her new music that's performing well. One of her earliest smashes, which remains a global sensation to this day, returns and becomes a hit all over again.
This week, Gaga rules the Dance Streaming Songs chart, Billboard's ranking of the most-played dance tracks in the U.S. on platforms like Spotify and Apple Music. She's steady at No. 1 with 'Abracadabra,' the latest release from Mayhem. The single has now claimed five of its seven weeks on the ranking atop the list, and it's far from her only win at the moment.
'Abracadabra' isn't the only tune from Mayhem performing well on the Dance Streaming Songs chart. Gaga fills five spots inside the top 10 this frame, owning half of the highest tier.
'Garden of Eden' is steady at No. 3, while 'How Bad Do You Want Me' holds at No. 5. 'Disease' slips slightly from No. 6 to No. 8, and 'Vanish Into You' drops five rungs to No. 9.
As if those smashes weren't enough to show Gaga's continued power in the electronic space, she pulls off another impressive feat this week. One of her earliest hits, 'Poker Face,' returns to the Dance Streaming Songs chart. The tune blasts back onto the 15-spot ranking at No. 14, coming in just ahead of last place. Even as all eyes and ears are on Mayhem, fans are still hitting play on the cut that helped turn her into a household name nearly two decades ago.
'Poker Face' was the second major hit taken from Gaga's debut album The Fame. After 'Just Dance' featuring Colby O'Donis introduced her to the world and reached No. 1, 'Poker Face' quickly followed, replicating that chart-topping success. It earned the singer several Grammy nominations and proved that she wasn't just a flash in the pan, she was a bona fide pop star.
