Downloads of Nickelback's 'Photograph' surge more than 500 per cent after Trump's tweet
Downloads of Nickelback's earworm "Photograph," surged more than 500 per cent after U.S. President Donald Trump's tweet. On Oct 2., Trump tweeted a video that included a reference to the Canadian rockband's 2005 song. The video featured the band’s lead singer, Chad Kroeger, holding up a framed picture that was altered to include an image of Joe Biden and an alleged “Ukraine gas executive.” It was eventually removed due to a copyright violation claim, but since then, the song has seen an increase in downloads and streams. According to ‘Billboard,’ digital downloads of the song on Oct. 2-3 were up 569 per cent. “Photograph” also earned 772,000 streams on platforms such as YouTube, Apple Music and Spotify, which is a 38 per cent gain from the two days before the tweet. Although Nickelback has yet to comment on the situation, they did like an Oct. 3 tweet that read “not my president and not theirs either.”
