Background

Although it has never been released as a single, it has charted on a few occasions when other Eminem albums have been released. [2] In 2012, it was certified double-platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America for selling 2,000,000 copies in the United States. [3] This was followed by quintuple-platinum in 2018 and octuple-platinum in 2022. [3]

When Eminem's single "Shake That" (also featuring Nate Dogg) was released in 2006, several Eminem songs re-charted that same week, including "'Till I Collapse". It charted in the UK at number 192 on April 15, 2006. [2] In 2008, it appeared in HBO's series De La Hoya/Pacquiao 24/7. [4]

In 2009, it was used in an advertisement for the game Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 . It raised digital download sales of the song worldwide considerably, [5] but in Britain the song sold so many copies after the ad aired that it re-charted that week (November 21, 2009) at number 73, a new peak. Major League Baseball pitcher Jesse Litsch used the song as his entrance music during the 2011 season. [6] Major League Baseball pitcher Justin Verlander uses the song as his entrance music. [7]
