Jimmy Buffett Hits A High On A Billboard Chart He Hasn’t Seen In More Than 30 Years

The world is still mourning the loss of Jimmy Buffett, who passed away unexpectedly after a private battle with cancer on September 1. In the days and weeks following his death, his dedicated fan base helped many of his biggest hits return to the Billboard charts. Now, his first posthumous single is proving to be a proper hit–the kind he hasn’t experienced in decades.

Buffett’s current single, “Bubbles Up,” rises again on this week’s edition of the Adult Contemporary chart. The ranking, published every week by Billboard, tallies the best-performing tunes across radio stations in the U.S. that focus on adult contemporary, a more mature subset of pop.
