The Cure frontman enters the chart at No. 17 with What's Wrong With Me, his collaboration with Olivia Rodrigo.
The track logged 15.5 million official US streams in its opening week, according to Luminate, following the release of Rodrigo's latest album You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Love.
The record made its debut at No.1 on the Billboard 200 with 485,000 equivalent album units - the second‑biggest week of 2026 behind BTS's ARIRANG.
Smith previously appeared on the Hot 100 a whopping 14 times with The Cure between 1986 and 1996, including No.2 smash hit Love Song in 1989.
Rodrigo recently spoke about her long‑standing connection to The Cure, telling Zane Lowe on Apple Music: "I saw The Cure with my dad and we were just holding each other singing Pictures of You, and I'm like, 'This is so beautiful,' we're just crying. That's just a thing in my family. We're very, very emotional when it comes to music, it's sort of our thing."
Meanwhile, the Friday I'm in Love icon recently confirmed that The Cure were preparing to release two new albums.
Speaking on BBC 6 Music, he revealed the band recorded enough material for three full records, with the second now completed and ready to deliver to Universal.
