Concurrently, Taylor Swift’s “The Fate of Ophelia” returns for a fourth week atop the Billboard Global 200 chart.
(The songs surge back to the charts’ respective summits as holiday hits retreat from the rankings’ upper reaches, given the latest lists’ reflection of the Dec. 26-Jan. 1 data tracking week.)
Elsewhere, Tyla’s “Chanel” reaches the Global Excl. U.S. top 10 for the first time and El Bogueto and Yung Beef’s “Cuando No Era Cantante” bounds to the Global 200’s top 10.
The Billboard Global 200 and Global Excl. U.S. charts rank songs based on streaming and sales activity culled from more than 200 territories around the world, as compiled by Luminate. The Global 200 is inclusive of worldwide data and the Global Excl. U.S. chart comprises data from territories excluding the United States.
Chart ranks are based on a weighted formula incorporating official-only streams on both subscription and ad-supported tiers of audio and video music services, as well as download sales, the latter of which reflect purchases from full-service digital music retailers from around the world, with sales from direct-to-consumer (D2C) sites excluded from the charts’ calculations.
“Golden” leads Global Excl. U.S., up from No. 12, with 68.3 million streams (a 1% gain) and 5,000 sold (a 2% increase) beyond the U.S.
