Chart numbers don\u2019t mean everything, as there are dozens of musical superstars who have only claimed a handful of hits on some of Billboard\u2019s most competitive rosters, if any at all. There can be many reasons why an act that has proved successful in many other regards may trail behind more contemporary names, and there are countless groups that have only landed a handful of successes on some of the company\u2019s newer rosters \u2013 those that didn\u2019t exist when many beloved outfits were in their prime. <\/p>\n
Metallica<\/a> is one such act. While the hard rockers remain among the most successful when it comes to lists like the Billboard 200 and various hard rock tallies, the Grammy-winning band is not one of the most prolific groups when it comes to the worldwide rosters. Billboard introduced both the Billboard Global 200 and the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. back in 2020, and since then, only the most popular Metallica cuts have reached them. One of the group\u2019s few wins rises to a new high as people all around the world continue to consume it in huge numbers.<\/p>\n “Enter Sandman” Reaches a New Chart Peak<\/p>\n Metallica\u2019s \u201cEnter Sandman\u201d<\/a> climbs on the Billboard Global 200<\/a> in its fifteenth frame as one of the 200 most-consumed cuts all around the planet. The roster takes into account both streams and sales from essentially every nation on Earth. The smash lifts from No. 183 to No. 173, which is as high as \u201cEnter Sandman\u201d has ever climbed.<\/p>\n “Enter Sandman” Has Only Spent a Few Weeks Charting<\/p>\n \u201cEnter Sandman\u201d hits its newly-established peak after only a few weeks on the list, but months after it debuted. Metallica launched the fan favorite on the Billboard Global 200 back in June of 2025, and since then, it has failed to appear on the tally more often than not.<\/p>\n “Enter Sandman” Trails \u201cMaster of Puppets\u201d<\/p>\n Even as it steps up, \u201cEnter Sandman\u201d continues to rank as Metallica\u2019s lowest-peaking hit on the Billboard Global 200, and it may never catch up to the only other tune that the group has placed on the 200-space roster. \u201cMaster of Puppets\u201d reached No. 20 in the summer of 2022. That classic from the troupe\u2019s discography has spent only about half as many weeks on the Billboard Global 200 when compared to \u201cEnter Sandman,\u201d yet there is no competition in terms of which is the bigger hit.<\/p>\n “Enter Sandman” Misses the Billboard Global Excl.
