You can't, not unless you create a new Apple id and buy the song again that way. Better why not tell your friends/family to buy it-your friend is bound to get more downloads that way-especially if the others like it and tell their friends and so on...

Don't they need to hit hundreds of thousands of sales before they hit the charts?😯

They need to hit an obscene amount of downloads (actual purchases) before the song makes it in the top list. Even under a specific genre, you are still looking at a minimum of 10,000 downloads. Unless you want to spend over $5,000 on this, downloading a song 5-10 times (or even 200) isn't going to help. It's nice that you want to help your friends but it would cost you way too much in the end to really have an impact. You would have to buy the song 10 times along with at least 1000 other people.

I have to agree! Why would you want to but the same song twice?
