Halestorm & I Prevail’s ‘Can U See Me in the Dark?’ Tops Mainstream Rock Airplay Chart

Halestorm and I Prevail’s collaboration “Can U See Me in the Dark?” is the newest No. 1 on Billboard’s Mainstream Rock Airplay chart, rising a spot to top the tally dated Sept. 28.

The song becomes Halestorm’s seventh No. 1 and first since “The Steeple” ruled for a week in June 2022. The Lzzy Hale-fronted band ties the Taylor Momsen-led The Pretty Reckless for the most rulers by women or women-fronted acts in the Mainstream Rock Airplay chart’s 43-year history.

I Prevail notches its third No. 1 and first since “Bad Things” in November 2022.

“Can U See Me in the Dark?” marks the first Mainstream Rock Airplay No. 1 by at least two multi-person entities – Halestorm is a four-piece band; I Prevail is a quintet – since Metallica and the San Francisco Symphony led with “All Within My Hands” in September 2020.

Concurrently, “Can U See Me in the Dark?” lifts 10-9 on the all-rock-format, audience-based Rock & Alternative Airplay chart via 2.7 million audience impressions, up 15%, in the week ending Sept. 19, according to Luminate. It’s I Prevail’s highest-charting song, surpassing the No. 10 peak of “Bad Things”; Halestorm’s best remains “The Steeple,” which hit No. 8.

“Can U See Me in the Dark?” is currently a standalone single that helped promote the bands’ co-headlining tour that ran from July through mid-August. Halestorm’s most recent album, Back From the Dead, peaked at No. 2 on the Top Hard Rock Albums chart in May 2022 and has earned 97,000 equivalent album units to date. I Prevail’s latest LP is True Power, which reached No. 3 on Top Hard Rock Albums in September 2022 and has earned 258,000 units.

All Billboard charts dated Sept. 28 will update on Billboard.com on Tuesday, Sept. 24.
