Audrey Hobert’s Sue Me Jumps 103% to 1.1 Million Streams

Audrey Hobert’s “Sue Me” jumped 103% to 1.1 million weekly official on-demand U.S. streams after its use in the first season of Amazon Prime’s Off Campus. The gain puts her song in the same streaming conversation as other soundtrack cuts getting a lift from the series, which was renewed for a second season before season one even aired.

Off Campus soundtrack gains

Andrew Unterberger wrote that, "And already, plenty of songs both old and new are seeing the benefits from their prominent usage on the show’s first season." He also noted that the show has a higher synch-per-episode rate than Heated Rivalry, which helps explain why these cuts are moving beyond a single playlist bump and into weekly streaming totals.

“Sue Me” is not the only song benefiting. Elton John’s 1974 anthem “The Bitch Is Back” rose 577% to 1.2 million weekly official on-demand U.S. streams, while Warrant’s 1990 song “Cherry Pie” climbed 122% to 1.1 million. G Flip’s “Bed on Fire” surged 4,263% to 647,000, and The Beaches’ “Edge of the Earth” increased 735% to 1 million.

Jennifer Lopez and “On the Floor”

Jennifer Lopez’s “On the Floor” also returned to the Billboard charts after being used in Off Campus, debuting at No. 117 on the Billboard Global 200 and No. 80 on the Global Excl. U.S. charts dated May 30. The song totaled 15.1 million streams worldwide during the May 15-21 tracking week, and Lopez replied to the chart return with, "What!?"

The series’ soundtrack mix leans on contemporary alt-pop and alt-rock, but it also reaches for 20th-century throwbacks favored by Hannah and Garrett. That spread is what makes the results more useful than a one-song spike: the show is moving new releases and catalog tracks at the same time, with Andrew Unterberger adding, "And this is likely just the beginning: All of these songs are still climbing in daily streams, as more and more potential viewers jump on the Off Campus bandwagon."

May 21 streaming week

For listeners, the practical read is simple: if a song lands in a scene that gets attention, its weekly and daily counts can move fast enough to push it back into active rotation. For labels and artists, Off Campus is already functioning like a soundtrack engine, and “Sue Me” is one of the clearest examples of that lift in the tracking week ending May 21.
