Taylor Swift’s “august” peaked at number seven on Billboard’s Philippines Songs chart.
The song reached that position during its later resurgence in 2022, rather than during its initial 2020 release period. This is one example of how the track developed a second life on charts as listeners repeatedly returned to it during August.
The Philippines Songs ranking should not be confused with the Philippines Hot 100, where the song reached number 20. Billboard maintains separate charts with different scopes, so the same track can have different peak positions in the same country.
“august” also gained renewed chart attention elsewhere in 2022, including Indonesia, Ireland, and the United Kingdom. The recurring seasonal interest helped a non-single from Folklore become one of Swift’s most recognizable month-themed songs.
