Madonna's 'I Feel So Free' Hits No. 1 on Dance/Mix Show Chart After 15-Year Hiatus
  • Madonna returns to No. 1 on the Billboard Dance/Mix Show Airplay chart with I Feel So Free, her first chart-topping radio hit since December 2008, as the track jumps from No. 8 to No. 1 and gives her an eighth career leader on this chart.

  • Brian Cantor of Headline Planet notes the chart movement covers the May 17–23 tracking period and provides context for the climb.

  • The rise is fueled by a 50% increase in plays from 24/7 dance reporters and mix-show hours, aided by a new Peggy Gou remix released mid-May.

  • Billboard updates for the May 30 chart will publish on May 27 due to Memorial Day holiday scheduling.

  • Bring Your Love marks Madonna’s first Adult Pop Airplay entry since 2019 and first Pop Airplay entry since 2023, signaling a strong multi-format presence ahead of the Confessions II album due July 3.

  • The chart features collaborations among top entries, including Kygo with Gryffin and Khalid, Fisher with Tones and I, Tiesto with Brieanna Grace, and Loud Luxury with Sadboi.

  • Confessions II, set for release July 3, is positioned as the follow-up to Confessions on a Dance Floor, which previously produced Madonna’s first four Dance/Mix Show Airplay No. 1s.

  • Bring Your Love also debuts on the Hot 100 at No. 74 and appears on Dance/Mix Show Airplay bubbling under, marking Madonna’s 59th Hot 100 entry and her first since Popular.

  • The top five on the chart are: I Feel So Free, Save My Love (Kygo with Gryffin and Khalid), Favour (Fisher & Tones and I), Beautiful Places (Tiesto & Brieanna Grace), and OUT LATE (Loud Luxury & Sadboi).

  • I Feel So Free led the chart with a 190-spin increase from the prior week, underscoring momentum in dance radio.

  • The milestone reinforces Madonna’s enduring connection to dance music and club culture, highlighting her ongoing relevance across decades and formats.
