Despite peaking at number two on the Modern Rock Tracks, "Black Hole Sun" finished as the number-one track of 1994 for that chart. It failed to appear on the Billboard Hot 100 due to not receiving a physical release at the time, but it still peaked at number 24 on the Hot 100 Airplay chart and number nine on the Mainstream Top 40 chart.
