Billboard's two worldwide tallies rank songs based on streaming and sales data from more than 200 territories.
Adele's "Easy on Me" is the biggest song in the world, as it hits No. 1 on the Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts (both dated Oct. 30) following its Oct. 14 arrival.
Plus, and adding to British acts' highlights, Elton John and Dua Lipa's "Cold Heart (Pnau Remix)" reaches the Global Excl. U.S. top five, climbing from No. 6 to No. 5.
Billboard's two global charts, which began in September 2020 and recently marked their first year, rank songs based on streaming and sales activity culled from more than 200 territories around the world, as compiled by MRC Data. The Billboard Global 200 is inclusive of worldwide data and the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. chart comprises data from territories excluding the U.S.
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.
'Easy on Me' Vaults 195-1 on Global 200
"Easy" by London-born Adele flies from No. 195, where it debuted, to No. 1 on the Billboard Global 200. The song drew 178.2 million streams and sold 136,300 downloads worldwide in the Oct. 15-21 tracking week.
The ballad boasts the second-biggest streaming week since the Global 200 began, after BTS' "Butter" launched with 289.2 million streams on the June 5 chart. "Easy" scores the third-biggest sales frame, following "Butter" (248,600, June 5) and BTS' "Permission to Dance" (138,600, July 24).
Adele is the third British act to top the Global 200, after Ed Sheeran, whose "Bad Habits" led the July 31 list, and Coldplay, whose "My Universe," with BTS, rocketed in at No. 1 on the Oct. 9 chart.
"Easy" was released at 7 p.m. ET Thursday, Oct. 14, and entered the Global 200 dated Oct. 23 at No. 195 thanks to activity from its premiere through midnight ET Oct. 14, with that chart's tracking week having spanned Oct. 8-14. It debuted with 7.7 million streams and 16,900 sold worldwide in its first five hours of availability.
Meanwhile, "Easy" is just the second song to register a 2-to-1 lead or better in Global 200 chart points over a runner-up, as it outpaces The Kid LAROI and Justin Bieber's "Stay," down to No. 2 after 11 weeks on top, by a 2.5-to-1 margin. Previously, Olivia Rodrigo's "Drivers License" held such an edge over its closest competition for four weeks in January-February, paced by a 3-to-1 domination, in its debut week, over The Weeknd's "Blinding Lights" on the Jan. 23 chart.
Rounding out the Global 200's top five, Nigeria's CKay dips to No. 3 from his No. 2 high with "Love Nwantiti (Ah Ah Ah)"; Lil Nas X and Jack Harlow's "Industry Baby" slips 3-4 after reaching No. 2; and Sheeran's "Shivers" holds at its No. 5 best.
'Easy on Me' No. 1, 'Cold Heart' Hits Top 5 on Global Excl. U.S.
Adele's "Easy on Me" debuts atop the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. chart, with 125.6 million streams and 62,700 sold in territories outside the U.S. in the Oct. 15-21 tracking week.
In the previous tracking frame, "Easy" drew 4.6 million streams and sold 2,000 outside the U.S. in its first five hours of release.
As on the Global 200, Adele is the third British act to lead the Global Excl. U.S. chart, after Ed Sheeran, whose "Bad Habits" reigned for five weeks beginning upon its July 10 debut, and Coldplay, whose "My Universe," with BTS, opened at No. 1 on the Oct. 9 tally.
The Kid LAROI and Justin Bieber's "Stay" slips to No. 2 after nine weeks atop the Global Excl. U.S. chart and CKay's "Love Nwantiti (Ah Ah Ah)" retreats to No. 3 from its No. 2 best.
"My Universe" makes an 8-4 Global Excl. U.S. rebound, up 24% to 43 million streams and 79% to 16,500 sold outside the U.S., as parent album Music of the Spheres by Coldplay was released Oct. 15.
Plus, Elton John and Dua Lipa's "Cold Heart (Pnau Remix)" reaches the Global Excl. U.S. top five, pushing 6-5 with 36.2 million streams (up 11%) and 23,600 sold (up 9%) outside the U.S. John logs his first top five hit on the chart and fellow British star Lipa earns her second, after "Levitating" reached No. 3 in May. Note: Effective with the Oct. 30-dated Billboard charts, streams from Boomplay is added to the data that informs the Hot 100, Billboard 200, Artist 100 and Billboard Global 200, as well as other Billboard U.S. and global surveys that include streaming data. The plays represent audio streams from Boomplay's subscription tier and logged-in streams from its ad-supported tier, with streams from each tier weighted differently. The Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts (dated Oct. 30) will update on Billboard.com tomorrow (Oct. 26). For both charts, the top 100 titles are available to all readers on Billboard.com, while the complete 200-title rankings are visible on Billboard Pro, Billboard's subscription-based service. For all chart news, you can follow billboard and billboardcharts on both Twitter and Instagram. |

Along with "Easy on Me" at No. 1, 10 prior Adele hits infuse the Billboard global tallies.
She made it look easy.
Adele crowns the Oct. 30-dated Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. with lofty numbers, as "Easy on Me" drew 178.2 million streams and sold 136,300 downloads worldwide in its first full week, ending Oct. 21, according to MRC Data.
Further down both charts, 10 additional Adele songs from among her previous albums 19, 21 and 25 (released in 2008, 2011 and 2015, respectively) surge. Combined, the 11 hits total 332 million streams and 152,000 downloads sold around the world in the tracking week.
The British singer-songwriter's catalog stampede is led by 21's "Someone Like You," which blasts 91-33 on the Global 200 and 91-38 on the Global Excl. U.S. survey. In its 26th week on the latter chart and 16th on the former, it sports gains of 69% to 22.2 million streams and 76% to 2,300 sold worldwide.
"When We Were Young," from 25, follows on the Global 200 at No. 37 (No. 41 on Global Excl. U.S.), while "Rolling in the Deep," from 21, is Adele's third-biggest song on Global Excl. U.S. at No. 39 (and No. 42 on the Global 200). "Young" soars by 96% to 20.7 million streams and "Deep" is up 60% to 20.6 million streams globally.
Here is a rundown of Adele's hits on the Oct. 30-dated Global 200 and Global Excl. U.S. charts.
"Easy on Me" (No. 1 Global 200; No. 1 Global Excl. U.S.)
"Someone Like You" (No. 33; No. 38)
"When We Were Young" (No. 37; No. 41)
"Rolling in the Deep" (No. 42; No. 39)
"Love in the Dark" (No. 54; No. 58)
"Set Fire to the Rain" (No. 64 on both)
"Hello" (No. 71; No. 85)
"Send My Love (To Your New Lover)" (No. 79; No. 89)
"All I Ask (No. 110; No. 181)
"Chasing Pavements" (No. 113; No. 128)
"Make You Feel My Love" (No. 135; No. 142)
"Someone" first graced the global charts in October 2020, while "Deep" debuted this September. "Young" entered both rankings dated Oct. 23, when "Easy" bowed from its first five hours of activity in the week ending Oct. 14, and the other seven titles above all debut on the Oct. 30 rankings.
Adele's older tracks range from the aforementioned 60% bump in global streams for "Deep" to a 107% jump for "All I Ask." In sales, the gains span from 36% for "Hello" to 87% for "Ask."
Like many of Adele's chart accomplishments, her latest are unprecedented. In the first year of Billboard's global charts, artists including Bad Bunny, BTS, Drake, Ariana Grande and others have blanketed the surveys with songs from new album releases. But aside from the odd song here or there, none of their new music spurred such a host of older material onto the charts, much less a double-digit hit parade all from the excitement of one new song.
Meanwhile, while Adele boasts the same number of songs on each chart, their overall performance is slightly stronger on the Global 200. "Easy" and "Set Fire to the Rain" have the same rank on both charts and "Deep" places three spots higher on the Global Excl. U.S. list, but her other eight global hits all fare better on the Global 200. In the most extreme case, "Ask" is 71 positions higher on the Global 200 than the Global Excl. U.S. chart.
Of the 10 older songs on the charts, two are from 19 ("Chasing Pavements" and "Make You Feel My Love"); three are from 21 ("Someone," "Deep" and "Rain"); and five are from 25 ("Young," "Love in the Dark," "Hello," "Send My Love [To Your New Lover]" and "Ask").
The haul includes many of Adele's iconic singles, as well as deeper cuts. "Dark" and her cover of Bob Dylan's "Feel" never hit the U.S.-based Billboard Hot 100 but make the global cut this week, with the former even outranking former Hot 100 No. 1s "Rain" and "Hello."
The 117-37 leap on the Global 200 for "Young" stands out as the song charts higher than "Deep." Not only was "Deep" a seven-week No. 1 on the Hot 100 in 2011, and the top song of that entire year, it finished in the top 10 of the chart's decade-end ranking. "Young" hit No. 14 on the Hot 100 in 2016.
As anticipation builds for the Nov. 19 release of "Easy" parent album 30, it's reasonable to expect more Adele on the global charts for the remainder of 2021.

Khan's weekly update on the Global 200 has arrived! I'm starting to have to do these earlier so they don't get in the way of my classes lol. docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1jSdctFcLyQl6HJYoi9Jr2OHFGkn-TBnxWVFNxMlzrto/edit?usp=sharing- A rapper's massive list of features strikes again! Coming only onto the main chart from Young Thug's album bomb is a feature on "Stressed" named T-Shyne. He was actually born in Grenada, a small Caribbean island nation. That gives the Grenadians their first show on the chart, where it slips into the bottom half. I think this peak might last a long, long time, so hey good for Grenada! - Let's talk about Venezuela now. After the nation dipped off the chart for a while, Evaluna Montaner has teamed up with her Colombian husband Camilo again to shake up the Global 200. She just barely beats out Lele Pons on "Se Te Nota" for a whole new Venezuelan peak on the Excl. US chart! On the main 200, Lele Pons still holds that peak, though. This makes sense, considering the impressive Montaner pedigree. - Lebanon gets a new peak due to the continued growth of "WFM" by Realestk, which debuted last week. It went viral enough to debut on the Excl. US chart this week, giving Lebanon its first appearance on that chart. - Speaking of the Excl. US chart, Rvssian gets a new peak for Jamaica there, just as he has for the last three weeks. - And now for the October 30 specifics! Spooky eh? Sweden has a lot of news on this front. In a shocking turn of events, the highest Swedish song on the main 200 is that new viral dance song by Neiked, which doesn't appear on the Excl. US chart at all. Usually it's the USA who neglects the EDM hits! And on the Excl. US chart, something that was always bound to happen finally comes to pass: Avicii is the highest charting Swede of the week, with "The Nights" bringing him the title. Also, related to what I said earlier, Camilo is the highest charting Colombian of the week, too. (As a small side note, every old Coldplay song gets a new peak and "Boyz" drops out entirely lol) |

The October 30-dated Billboard global charts are very much about Adele. The British singer racked up 332 million streams around the world for the 11 songs from her four studio albums albums -- including the first single from her upcoming collection, 30, “Easy on Me" -- newly crowned atop both tallies.
Elsewhere on the Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts, international acts inject the rankings with diversity of language, geography and genre.
Brazilian rapper Gloria Groove debuts on the Global Excl. U.S. chart at No. 171 with “A Queda,” earning the honor of being the first drag queen to hit the global charts. Of its 11.1 million global streams in its first full week, ending Oct. 21, nearly all of its streams (and 85% of its sales) come from outside the U.S, according to MRC Data.
Groove’s 11 million non-U.S. streaming total breaks down to 7 million clicks on video platforms and 4 million from audio platforms. The 63%/37% split is the second-biggest video-forward share among all 200 songs on this week’s Global Excl. U.S. chart, behind only Pinkfong’s evergreen “Baby Shark,” which derived 87% of its 21.3 million international streams from video services. “Baby Shark” circles at No. 95 in its 58th week on the tally.
Halfway around the world, LiSA debuts with two Japanese songs, “Akeboshi” (No. 43 Global Excl. U.S.; No. 107 Global 200) and “Yu-Ke” (No. 104 Global Excl. U.S.). She previously peaked at No. 2 last October with “Homura.”
Finally, Belgian rapper and producer Stromae debuts with the chart’s sole French-language title, “Santé,” at No. 76 on the Global Excl. U.S. chart and No. 143 on the Global 200. The song clocked 12.1 million streams and 3,500 sold worldwide in its first week. Below the charts’ 200-position thresholds, Stromae’s recent TikTok-revived “Alors En Danse,” originally released in 2009, waltzes 6% up to 7.8 million global streams.
A quick glance at the global lists might convince you she has four songs charting simultaneously. But a closer look shows the two debuting songs by Japan’s LiSA and another two by South Korea’s Lisa, a member of BLACKPINK. The latter’s “Money” dips to No. 9 on the Global Excl. U.S. tally, while “Lalisa” ranks at No. 36, each in their sixth week on the chart.

Billboard's two worldwide tallies rank songs based on streaming and sales data from more than 200 territories.
Adele's "Easy on Me" remains the biggest song in the world, as it spends a second week at No. 1 on both the Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts (dated Nov. 6).
Plus, Elton John and Dua Lipa's "Cold Heart (Pnau Remix)" reaches the Global 200's top five, jumping from No. 8 to No. 5, and Swedish House Mafia and The Weeknd's "Moth to a Flame" flies onto the Global 200 at No. 10.
Billboard's two global charts, which began in September 2020 and recently marked their first year, rank songs based on streaming and sales activity culled from more than 200 territories around the world, as compiled by MRC Data. The Billboard Global 200 is inclusive of worldwide data and the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. chart comprises data from territories excluding the U.S.
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.
'Easy' Leads, 'Cold' & 'Flame' Heat Up Global 200
"Easy on Me" by London-born Adele logs a second week at No. 1 on the Billboard Global 200. The ballad drew 104.2 million streams (down 42%) and sold 42,900 downloads (down 68%) worldwide in the Oct. 22-28 tracking week.
A week earlier, the song soared to No. 1 on the Global 200 and opened atop the Global Excl. U.S chart following its first full week of tracking.
The Kid LAROI and Justin Bieber's "Stay" holds at No. 2 on the Global 200, after a record 11 weeks at the summit; CKay's "Love Nwantiti (Ah Ah Ah)" is steady at No. 3, after reaching No. 2; and Lil Nas X and Jack Harlow's "Industry Baby" is likewise stationary at No. 4, also after hitting No. 2.
Elton John and Dua Lipa's "Cold Heart (Pnau Remix)" surges 8-5 on the Global 200, with 47.4 million streams (up 9%) and 36,800 sold (up 2%) globally. With the mash-up of four of John's songs, including "Rocket Man" and "Sacrifice," he tallies his first top five hit on the chart; fellow British star Lipa earns her second, after "Levitating" rose to No. 2 in May.
Elsewhere in the Global 200's top 10, Swedish House Mafia and The Weeknd's "Moth to a Flame" launches on the chart at No. 10, with 40.6 million streams and 8,900 sold worldwide, following its Oct. 22 release. The acts make their respective first and fifth top 10 trips on the survey.
The Swedish-Canadian collaboration is the third new song (and first Global 200 entry) from Swedish House Mafia since July, with its arrival accompanied by the announcement of the trio's 2022 Paradise Again tour, its first in over eight years.
'Easy' Does It Again Atop Global Excl. U.S.
Adele's "Easy on Me" tops the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. chart for a second week, with 74.4 million streams (down 41%) and 20,000 sold in territories outside the U.S. in the Oct. 22-28 tracking week.
The Kid LAROI and Justin Bieber's "Stay" keeps at No. 2 after nine weeks atop the Global Excl. U.S. chart; CKay's "Love Nwantiti (Ah Ah Ah)" repeats at No. 3, after reaching No. 2; Elton John and Dua Lipa's "Cold Heart (Pnau Remix)" lifts 5-4 for a new high; and Ed Sheeran's "Shivers" rebounds 6-5 to its best rank. The Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts (dated Nov. 6) will update on Billboard.com tomorrow (Nov. 2). For both charts, the top 100 titles are available to all readers on Billboard.com, while the complete 200-title rankings are visible on Billboard Pro, Billboard's subscription-based service.

In this weekly update on the Global 200 from Khan, a bunch of countries leave the chart which makes my job much easier! But also cool new peaks happen too... docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1jSdctFcLyQl6HJYoi9Jr2OHFGkn-TBnxWVFNxMlzrto/edit?usp=sharing- Sweden can claim victory over the world this week! The aptly-named Swedish House Mafia, a supergroup of some of the most accomplished Swedish DJs of all time, has teamed up with The Weeknd in a smash hit that earns an easy new peak for the Nords. "Moth to a Flame" yanks Sweden up to the top ten (and top twenty) of the main 200 for the first time ever, and it still earns a respectable #12 on the Excl. Us chart. They take the very, very longstanding peak from A7S, the vocalist on "Breaking Me" from last year. Not just that, but as a little side-note, Swedish producer Neiked is also rising up on the charts just below, so the vikings are seriously establishing themselves to be big in 2022. - Belgium keeps getting wee new peaks because of the steady rise in popularity of that Lost Frequencies song, up to even the top thirty on this week's Excl. US chart. - In the same vein, the Rvssian song that's been getting new peaks for Jamaica on the Excl. US chart does it again this week. While it's not a new all-time Jamaican peak, Rvssian also finally ranks higher than Sleepy Hallow this week for biggest Jamaican song in the world on the main 200 chart. - France almost makes an incredible comeback! DJ Snake's new big international collab ranks highest for France in a long time, almost coming close to taking the peak on the main 200 from Bas. On the Excl. US chart, though, "SG" debuts way up at #13, taking the all-time French peak from David Guetta on "Bed" and ranking France in the top twenty there for the first time! - Now the November 6th specifics. "Coração Cachorro" (means "dog heart") by Ávine Vinny and Matheus Fernandes ranks highest for Brazil, which as a whole nation has a great showing on the charts this week after a long inactive slump in the summer. Because of Chinese members Jun and The8, "Rock with You" by mostly-Korean Seventeen is the highest Chinese song this week. Which is the same thing I said about SVT's last showing on the chart... This chart is gonna go wild if they ever start properly counting Chinese streaming services lol. |

In 2019, a then-rising Nigerian artist CKay sent the sultry, slow-tempo “Love Nwantiti (ah ah ah)'' to his label Chocolate City Music. “To be honest... it was overlooked," he says. "No one took it seriously because it wasn’t a fast song.”
Two years later -- and thanks to a viral TikTok challenge, plus five more versions, including an acoustic rendition and sped-up offerings -- the song became CKay’s first Billboard Hot 100 hit, climbing into the top 40 on that chart and also making it all the way to No. 2 on Billboard’s Global Excl. U.S. and Global 200 tallies. The 26-year-old CKay, born Chukwuka Ekweani, describes it as “my own spin on Afrobeats,” saying he finds particular joy in creating what he calls emo Afrobeats.
“Emo Afrobeats is a way to express myself, my emotions and my sound and still have a groove to it," he explains. "Plus I'm a cancer, so my energy is basically emotions.”
CKay says he was in love while making the record -- the title translated from his native Igbo language means “small love" -- which came about while he was making beats and freestyling in his living room. “[The humming] was supposed to be backing vocals for the chorus,” he says, “but the record sounded perfect as it was.” He then sent it to a young producer from Lagos named Tempoe, who he says added extra details on the drums, completing the song seven months before it was released.
At first, nothing happened. But with the help of his manager Ogbolu Favour, who first heard CKay’s music in 2016, the artist was upstreamed in November 2020 to Warner Music South Africa, with Chocolate City Music licensing “Love Nwantiti” to the major (his U.S. contract is with Atlantic). “It's great to be in an environment working with people who understand your vision and are ready to make it happen,” CKay says of his new label homes. “My dream was always to make music [where] I wouldn't have to change my sound and it would touch the whole world, so it’s amazing to be doing that right now.”
With the help of his manager Ogbolu Favour, who first heard CKay’s music in 2016, the artist signed a new label deal with Warner Music South Africa in November 2020 -- his U.S. contract is with Atlantic. Chocolate City Music then licensed “Love Nwantiti” to Warner.
He released his major label debut EP Boyfriend this February, but this summer, it was “Love Nwantiti” -- off his 2019 debut EP CKay the First -- that was putting CKay on the map. By this September, the song had hit No. 1 on Shazam’s Global 200 chart. “Social media definitely played a role -- and it wasn't only TikTok. It was also Instagram, Twitter and YouTube. The world discovered it one person at a time.” (“Love Nwantiti" has now collected 97.4 million on-demand streams in the U.S. alone, according to MRC Data.)
Meanwhile, that discovery was happening at the same time another Nigerian artist was making a major splash on the Hot 100. This summer, Wizkid’s “Essence” (featuring Tems) took off, followed by a remix that added Justin Bieber and helped the song peak at No. 9 on the chart last month, making it the first Hot 100 top 10 hit to include Nigeria’s Yoruba language.
Favour says Warner Music South Africa in particular was instrumental in enforcing a global rollout plan for the revived “Love Nwantiti": “When it was licensed from Chocolate City Music, the Warner team wanted to release different products of the song, so we had different remixes in different regions. We had the North African remix, East African remix, South African, Spanish and French [versions] featuring different people that speak different languages from different parts of the world. Afrobeats gave the song a wider reach and with that step, the song had wings.”
CKay -- who says he would love to collaborate with R&B artists like SZA, Summer Walker and Chris Brown, as well as pop stars like Chris Martin and Billie Eilish -- hopes to release his debut album next year, teasing much more music on the way. “My album is going to be my best work yet,” he asserts, “because I'm going to put my whole soul and essence into it.”
Favour also believes the international success of “Love Nwantiti” is just the beginning for CKay: “I see [him] as an African global star.”

Paced by the British superstar, the top five of each worldwide chart consists entirely of acts from outside the U.S.
Adele's "Easy on Me" continues its run as the biggest song in the world, as it spends a third week at No. 1 on both the Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts (dated Nov. 13).
Plus, Ed Sheeran boasts two songs in the top five of each tally: "Shivers" and "Bad Habits," both from his new album, =.
Meanwhile, the Global 200's top five exclusively comprises acts from outside the U.S. for the first time. On the Global Excl. U.S. chart, only artists from beyond the U.S. also infuse the region, for a third straight week and for the fourth time overall.
Billboard's two global charts, which began in September 2020 and recently marked their first year, rank songs based on streaming and sales activity culled from more than 200 territories around the world, as compiled by MRC Data. The Billboard Global 200 is inclusive of worldwide data and the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. chart comprises data from territories excluding the U.S.
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.
"Easy on Me" by Adele adds a third week at No. 1 on the Billboard Global 200. The ballad drew 84 million streams (down 19%) and sold 29,200 downloads (down 32%) worldwide in the Oct. 29-Nov. 4 tracking week.
The Kid LAROI and Justin Bieber's "Stay" holds at No. 2 on the Global 200, after a record 11 weeks on top, and Ed Sheeran ranks back-to-back with "Shivers" (6-3) and "Bad Habits" (7-4), both from his new album, =. "Shivers" hits a new high and "Bad Habits" led for a week in July.
Rounding out the Global 200's top five, CKay's "Love Nwantiti (Ah Ah Ah)" dips 3-5, after reaching No. 2.
Easy' & Ed Also Shine on Global Excl. U.S.
Adele's "Easy on Me" rules the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. chart for a third week, with 60.5 million streams (down 19%) and 13,700 sold (down 32%) in territories outside the U.S. in the Oct. 29-Nov. 4 tracking week.
The Kid LAROI and Justin Bieber's "Stay" repeats at No. 2 after nine weeks atop the Global Excl. U.S. chart; Ed Sheeran's "Shivers" jumps 5-3 for a new best; CKay's "Love Nwantiti (Ah Ah Ah)" slips 3-4, after reaching No. 2; and Sheeran's "Bad Habits" lifts 6-5, after it reigned for five weeks. As on the Global 200, the Global Excl. U.S. top five sports only acts from outside the U.S. On the latter list, such artists earn the achievement for a third consecutive week; in the two prior frames, Coldplay, Elton John, Dua Lipa (England) and BTS (South Korea) contributed to the feat, alongside Adele, The Kid LAROI, Bieber, CKay and Sheeran. Sheeran, BTS, The Kid LAROI, Bieber and Måneskin (Italy) first made for an all-non-U.S. top five on the July 31 Global Excl. U.S. chart. The Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts (dated Nov. 13) will update on Billboard.com tomorrow (Nov. 9).

and here it goes again, another round of weekly updates on the Global 200 from Khan! It's a bit of a slow week again but hey, Halloween music is neat. docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1jSdctFcLyQl6HJYoi9Jr2OHFGkn-TBnxWVFNxMlzrto/edit?usp=sharing- Let's start with our one moment of pretty huge news this week, a new country! Ghana has made its global chart presence debut, and it's somehow only on the main 200, not the Excl. US chart. Two Ghanaians, Amaarae and Moliy, have remixed their song "Sad Girlz Luv Money" with Colombian singer Kali Uchis, and it charts in the lower half of the main chart this week. With this and CKay and Wizkid and Tems, it's Africa's best showing on this chart ever! Especially for West Africa, so be ready for some jollof rice fights. - Belgium makes some pretty important gains this week from the steady and unyielding rise of Lost Frequencies. "Where Are You Now" enters Belgium into the top 40 of the main 200 and the top 25 of the Excl. US chart for the first time ever. - Speaking of unyielding rises, Jamaica's Rvssian takes a step higher on the Excl. US chart to get a new peak there, just as he's done for half a season with little gains at a time. If this continues, he might get the Jamaican peak on the main 200 by Christmas. - And now the November 13th specifics. Pretty small amount of news here again... The Spanish weekly leader flipflops back to that Goosebumps remix again. India inches back onto the Excl. US chart at the lower echelons with the same song they left off on. I put Austria's LUM!X back on my chart after mistakenly removing him last week. Turkey gets another viral hit and reenters the Excl. US chart through rapper Cakal. - "All I Want for Christmas Is You" charts at #105 this week. |

"Thriller" and "All I Want for Christmas Is You" surge as music segues from scary to merry.
How quickly a year goes by. Michael Jackson's "Thriller" leads a rush of Halloween songs on the Nov. 13-dated Billboard Global 200 at No. 28, just as the holiday music season begins to jingle with the re-entry of Mariah Carey's "All I Want for Christmas Is You" at No. 105.
The tracking week for this week's charts spanned Oct. 29 through Nov. 4, thus, encompassing the final three days leading up to and including Halloween.
Blasting 109-28 on the Global 200, "Thriller" drew 22.1 million streams (up 105%) and sold 8,800 downloads (up 78%) around the world in the tracking week, according to MRC Data. Notably, that's a nearly 30% stronger streaming showing than last year, when the zombie-terror classic scared up 17 million streams (up 95%) during Halloween week, hitting its initial high of No. 51.
Of course, it's not an apples-to-apples (or apple cider …) comparison; since Halloween falls on a different day of the week each year, the portion of the tracking week most devoted to spooky listening ebbs and flows year-to-year. In 2020, the corresponding Friday-Thursday tracking week covered Oct. 30-Nov. 5.
Similarly, Rockwell's "Someone's Watching Me" hits No. 35 (18.5 million streams) despite not appearing on the chart at all in 2020 (when it logged 5.6 million Halloween-week streams), while Ray Parker, Jr.'s "Ghostbusters" ranks at No. 46 (14.4 million) after reaching No. 119 last year (9.6 million). Additionally, Bobby "Boris" Pickett and the Crypt-Keepers creep to No. 54 with "Monster Mash" (11.8 million; No. 89 high in 2020, 10 million); Andrew Gold's "Spooky, Scary Skeletons" debuts at No. 120 (5.6 million last year); and AC/DC's "Highway to Hell" is No. 142 (10.4 million; No. 160 in 2020, 9.7 million).
Of the seven Halloween-themed songs on the Global 200, four make the Global Excl. U.S. chart, all at lower positions than on the worldwide tally. "Thriller" is No. 60, "Someone's Watching Me" is No. 77, "Ghostbusters" is No. 151 and "Highway to Hell" rounds out the list at No. 183.
Meanwhile, Carey's ever-dominant "Christmas" ushers in the Yuletide season on Billboard's global charts. The song re-enters the Global 200 at No. 105 with 11.7 million streams and 2,600 sold in the tracking week, up 128% and 256%, respectively. Continuing with our year-over-year comparisons, the song started its chart ascent the same week in 2020 (on the Nov. 14 tally), although at No. 139 with 11.1 million streams. Its 2021 mid-chart re-entry will likely be followed in the coming weeks by classics from Brenda Lee, Burl Ives, Wham! and a sleighful of others.
Just as Halloween songs fare better on the latest Global 200 than on the Global Excl. U.S. ranking, the same goes for Christmas titles. Over the 2020-21 season, 93 holiday-themed songs appeared on the Global 200, including the entire top nine songs on the Jan. 2 chart, with Carey's carol at No. 1 for four weeks. On the Global Excl. U.S. list, however, 52 such songs charted, including five of the Jan. 2 top 10 and Carey reigning for one week. And as "Christmas" debuts mid-chart on the Global 200, it is so far shy of the Global Excl. U.S. tally, likely to re-enter next week.

For a second straight week, the top five of each ranking consists entirely of acts from outside the U.S.
Adele's "Easy on Me" remains the biggest song in the world, as it tallies a fourth week at No. 1 on both the Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts (dated Nov. 20).
Plus, two songs debut in the Global 200's top 10: Post Malone and The Weeknd's "One Right Now," at No. 9, and Travis Scott's "Escape Plan," at No. 10. Meanwhile, each survey's top five exclusively comprises acts from outside the U.S. for a second consecutive week.
Billboard's two global charts, which began in September 2020 and recently marked their first year, rank songs based on streaming and sales activity culled from more than 200 territories around the world, as compiled by MRC Data. The Billboard Global 200 is inclusive of worldwide data and the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. chart comprises data from territories excluding the U.S.
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.
'One Right Now' Makes Top Global 200 Debut
"Easy on Me" by Adele notches a fourth week at No. 1 on the Billboard Global 200. The ballad drew 75.6 million streams (down 10%) and sold 26,000 downloads (down 11%) worldwide in the Nov. 5-11 tracking week.
The Kid LAROI and Justin Bieber's "Stay" keeps at No. 2 on the Global 200, after a record 11 weeks at No. 1; Ed Sheeran's "Shivers" holds at its No. 3 high; CKay's "Love Nwantiti (Ah Ah Ah)" rebounds 5-4, after reaching No. 2; and Elton John and Dua Lipa's "Cold Heart (Pnau Remix)" rises 7-5, returning to its best rank first reached two weeks earlier.
Elsewhere in the Global 200's top 10, Post Malone and The Weeknd's "One Right Now" debuts on the chart at No. 9, with 37.8 million streams and 16,700 sold worldwide in its first week, following its Nov. 5 release. Post Malone earns his first Global 200 top 10 dating to the chart's inception and The Weeknd adds his sixth.
Plus, Travis Scott's "Escape Plan" enters the Global 200 at No. 10, with 39.2 million streams and 9,400 sold globally, marking Scott's third top 10 on the chart. The track was released Nov. 5. That night, eight people died and hundreds more were injured due to a crowd rush at Scott's Astroworld Festival in Houston. Two more attendees have since died, while numerous lawsuits mount following the tragedy.
'Easy' Also Holds Atop Global Excl. U.S.
Adele's "Easy on Me" tops the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. chart for a fourth week, with 54.8 million streams (down 9%) and 12,000 sold (down 12%) in territories outside the U.S. in the Nov. 5-11 tracking week.
The Kid LAROI and Justin Bieber's "Stay" is steady at No. 2 after nine weeks atop the Global Excl. U.S. chart; CKay's "Love Nwantiti (Ah Ah Ah)" lifts 4-3, after reaching No. 2; Ed Sheeran's "Shivers" slips to No. 4 from its No. 3 high; and Elton John and Dua Lipa's "Cold Heart (Pnau Remix)" climbs 6-5, after hitting No. 4.
As on the Global 200, the Global Excl. U.S. top five houses only acts from outside the U.S. On the latter list, such artists share the achievement for a fourth consecutive week, and for a fifth total frame.
The Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts (dated Nov. 20) will update on Billboard.com tomorrow (Nov. 16). For both charts, the top 100 titles are available to all readers on Billboard.com, while the complete 200-title rankings are visible on Billboard Pro, Billboard's subscription-based service. For all chart news, you can follow billboard and billboardcharts on both Twitter and Instagram. |

It's time for Khan's first weekly update on the Global 200 using Billboard's new website layout, and I have wonderful news. You no longer need to pay to see the bottom half of both charts! This'll make things so much easier for me, and the website looks a little slicker in general. docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1jSdctFcLyQl6HJYoi9Jr2OHFGkn-TBnxWVFNxMlzrto/edit?usp=sharing- Remember when I was talking about Ghana last week? Well they absolutely shattered all my expectations! In a wonderful coincidence, the "Sad Girlz Luv Money" remix, led by Ghanaians Amaarae and Moliy, has crash landed at #33 on both charts this week. It's even its debut on the Excl. US chart. Obviously a new peak, and a rise of over a hundred spots on the main chart to boot. With just a sprinkling of TikTok fairy dust, Ghana has flown into the upper echelons of national peaks, and it's become the second-highest peaking African country on the chart after only Nigeria. Africa is truly finally having its moment on the Global 200. - My apologies, but I totally missed news for Belgium recently. I forgot to update its overall peak on the Excl. US chart, where Lost Frequencies broke into the top twenty-five two weeks ago. - That's all the news for new peaks this week, but what a new peak it is! And now we have more room for November 20 specific news. Once again, the US does not appear in the top five of the main chart, or even the top six this time. In a similar vein, Colombia (who topped the very first Excl. US chart week) makes no appearance in the top HALF of the main chart at all for the first time. I also have some sad news: due to the unfortunate and sudden death of Marília Mendonça, arguably Brazil's biggest female star in their sertanejo genre (the one that's often played live with acoustic guitars and some funk synths), in an airplane crash, she takes the spot for highest Brazilian song on the charts with a recent single from a collab album. |

"Sad Girlz Luv Money" hits the top 40 of both the Global 200 and Global Excl. U.S. tallies.
This week’s Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts (dated Nov. 20) feature a combined 40 debuts. Nearly half of those, 17 to be exact, come courtesy of Summer Walker, via her sophomore LP, Still Over It, which launches as the Atlanta-born singer-songwriter’s first No. 1 on the Billboard 200. It also opens as her third leader on Top R&B Albums and her second on Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums.
Elsewhere, “Sad Girlz Luv Money” by Amaarae and Moliy and featuring Kali Uchis, makes notable moves, at No. 33 on both charts, as it debuts on the Global Excl. U.S. chart and rises from last week’s No. 136 debut on the Global 200. The song’s surge is bolstered by 22.1 million streams (up 127%) and 1,700 downloads sold (up 242%) worldwide in the week ending Nov. 11, according to MRC Data.
All three acts on the pop-Afro-fusion song are from the U.S. but incorporate their disparate lineages and influences into the track. Amaarae and Moliy were both raised between the U.S. (Atlanta and Orlando, respectively) and Accra, Ghana. They teamed up on “Sad Girlz” for Amaarae’s 2020 debut studio LP, The Angel You Don’t Know.
“Sad Girlz” is the latest in a recent surge of African pop on the global charts (and on U.S.-based surveys), following Wizkid’s “Essence,” featuring Tems and Justin Bieber, and CKay’s “Love Nwantiti (Ah Ah Ah),” currently at No. 4 on the Global 200 in its eighth consecutive week in the top 10. Wizkid, Tems and CKay are all from Nigeria. “Sad Girlz” marks the global charts’ first Ghanaian infusion.
A remix of “Sad Girlz” with Uchis was released in September and has recently exploded online, with more than 2.2 million uses on TikTok so far. Uchis herself was born in Alexandria, Va., but has focused her 2020-21 musical output on her Colombian heritage. She adds a Latin flare to the song, including some sections in Spanish, following her solo Spanglish top 10 global hit, “Telepatía.”
Meanwhile, “Sad Girlz” combines African and Latin pop via three female American singers, a notable blend considering that international breakout crossovers for the genres have typically trended toward male superstars, including Wizkid and Burna Boy, from Nigeria, and J Balvin and Camilo, from Colombia.

Swift scores her first No. 1 song since the Global 200 and Global Excl. U.S surveys began in September 2020.
Taylor Swift soars in at No. 1 on both the Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts (dated Nov. 20) with “All Too Well (Taylor’s Version).” The song, long a fan and critical favorite among her catalog, is from her new re-recorded LP, Red (Taylor’s Version), which concurrently bows at No. 1 on the U.S.-based Billboard 200 albums chart.
Plus, “Smokin Out the Window” by Silk Sonic, the tandem of Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak, hits the Global 200’s top 10, climbing to No. 8.
Billboard‘s two global charts, which began in September 2020 and recently marked their first year, rank songs based on streaming and sales activity culled from more than 200 territories around the world, as compiled by MRC Data.

‘Well’ Done: Swift’s First Global 200 No. 1
Taylor Swift’s “All Too Well (Taylor’s Version)” premieres at No. 1 on the Billboard Global 200, as it drew 131.3 million streams and sold 41,700 downloads worldwide in the Nov. 12-18 tracking week, following its Nov. 12 release. The song opens with the seventh-biggest global streaming week for any title this year.
Swift scores her first Global 200 No. 1 over the chart’s 14-month history, among three top 10s. “Willow” debuted at its No. 2 peak in December 2020 and “Love Story (Taylor’s Version)” began at its No. 7 best this February.
Adele’s “Easy on Me” descends to No. 2 after four weeks atop the Billboard Global 200; The Kid LAROI and Justin Bieber’s “Stay” slips 2-3, after a record 11 weeks at No. 1; Ed Sheeran’s “Shivers” drops to No. 4 from its No. 3 high; and Elton John and Dua Lipa’s “Cold Heart (Pnau Remix)” keeps at its No. 5 best.
Elsewhere in the Global 200’s top 10, “Smokin Out the Window” by Silk Sonic, the twosome of Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak, advances 12-8 in its second week on the survey, with 47.2 million streams (up 16%) and 9,300 sold worldwide.
The collab is Mars and Anderson .Paak’s second Global 200 top 10 each, after their “Leave the Door Open” reached No. 2 in March. Both songs are from the pair’s album An Evening With Silk Sonic, which debuts at No. 2 on the Billboard 200. ‘All Too Well’ Also Tops Global Excl. U.S. Taylor Swift’s “All Too Well (Taylor’s Version)” also bounds in atop the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. chart, with 76.9 million streams and 10,300 sold in territories outside the U.S. in the Nov. 12-18 tracking week. Swift achieves her highest Global Excl. U.S. rank and second top 10, after “Willow” debuted and peaked at No. 5 last December. Adele’s “Easy on Me” retreats to No. 2 after four weeks in charge of the Global Excl. U.S. chart; The Kid LAROI and Justin Bieber’s “Stay” backtracks 2-3, after nine weeks atop the tally; CKay’s “Love Nwantiti (Ah Ah Ah)” descends 3-4, after reaching No. 2; and Elton John and Dua Lipa’s “Cold Heart (Pnau Remix)” repeats at No. 5, after hitting No. 4. The Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts (dated Nov. 27) will update on Billboard.com tomorrow (Nov. 23).

Whoa I did not expect such a busy week for Khan's Global 200 updates when it's American album bomb time, but we have some news here! I had a confusing moment where a Brazilian debut had the same name as a famous Portuguese and I had to do far too much research to make sure... People need to have more personal information online! I still have no clue what a Gayle or a BoyWithUke is! docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1jSdctFcLyQl6HJYoi9Jr2OHFGkn-TBnxWVFNxMlzrto/edit?usp=sharing- First off, new country! Not a full-fledged sovereign nation, but still a very distinct entity. Featuring on album bomb entry "The Last Time (Taylor's Version)" is Gary Lightbody from the band Snow Patrol! He's Northern Irish, and so Northern Ireland is now featured on the section of non-sovereign states at the bottom of the chart. With this, all four constituent countries of the United Kingdom are represented on the Global 200! All four at once this week, to boot. - The next piece of big news is, of course, the new American #1 song. Taylor Swift pledges allegiance to the top spot of both global charts this week, which is notable. The USA has been in a small lull on the Global 200 if you'll believe it, with no appearances in the top five of either chart in the last month. There hasn't even been an American #1 since "Good 4 U" in July! Very cute that it happens on the second-most American day of the year: Thanksgiving. (Obviously, this version of "All Too Well" is the longest song to ever chart on the Global 200. Maybe the longest title, too...) - Ghana gets a continued new peak, moving up to #26. That "Sad Girlz Luv Money" remix just keeps going viral, though unfortunately for Amaarae and Moliy, they might miss the top twenty because of Taylor Swift, Adele, and Christmas. - Alrighty, let's spotlight a couple of November 27th specifics! After only existing in the bottom half of the chart for months, Spain gets a big new hit with Rosalía in the top fifty. María Becerra is dethroned for top Argentine song by Tini and L-Gante this week, but she still holds the peak! - Happy Thanksgiving! |

"Easy on Me" adds a fifth week atop both the Global 200 & Global Excl. U.S. surveys.
Adele‘s “Easy on Me” is the biggest song in the world, as it rebounds for a fifth week at No. 1 on both the Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts (dated Dec. 4).
The ballad is from the British superstar’s new album 30, which concurrently launches at No. 1 on the U.S.-based Billboard 200 with the biggest week for an album in 2021.
Plus, the set’s “Oh My God” debuts at Nos. 3 and 7, respectively, on the Global 200 and Global Excl. U.S. charts, while fellow 30 cut “I Drink Wine” enters the former at No. 10.
Billboard‘s two global charts, which began in September 2020 and recently marked their first year, rank songs based on streaming and sales activity culled from more than 200 territories around the world, as compiled by MRC Data. The Billboard Global 200 is inclusive of worldwide data and the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. chart comprises data from territories excluding the U.S.
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.
3 From ’30’ in Global 200 Top 10
Adele’s “Easy on Me” rebounds from No. 2 for a fifth week at No. 1 on the Billboard Global 200. The ballad drew 110.7 million streams (up 53%) and sold 43,600 downloads (up 14%) worldwide in the Nov. 19-25 tracking week.
Plus, two other songs from Adele’s LP 30 bow on the Global 200 in the top 10: “Oh My God,” at No. 3 (57.6 million streams, 5,200 sold worldwide), and “I Drink Wine,” at No. 10 (38.1 million streams, 8,900 sold). Adele now boasts three total Global 200 top 10s, dating to the chart’s inception last year.
Elsewhere in the Global 200’s top five, Taylor Swift’s “All Too Well (Taylor’s Version)” dips to No. 2, a week after it premiered at No. 1 (down 48% to 68.4 million streams and 78% to 9,300 sold globally); The Kid LAROI and Justin Bieber’s “Stay” slips 3-4, after a record 11 weeks at No. 1; and Elton John and Dua Lipa’s “Cold Heart (Pnau Remix)” holds at its No. 5 high.
‘Easy on Me’ Rules Global Excl. U.S., ‘Oh My God’ New at No. 7
Adele’s “Easy on Me” likewise rebounds from No. 2 for a fifth week atop the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. chart, with 76.1 million streams (up 49%) and 15,700 sold (up 10%) in territories outside the U.S. in the Nov. 19-25 tracking week.
Plus, Adele adds a second Global Excl. U.S. top 10, as “Oh My God” debuts on the chart at No. 7 (34.1 million streams, 1,700 sold outside the U.S.) The Kid LAROI and Justin Bieber’s “Stay” rises 3-2, after nine weeks atop the Global Excl. U.S. tally; Elton John and Dua Lipa’s “Cold Heart (Pnau Remix)” pushes to a new No. 3 high, from No. 5; CKay’s “Love Nwantiti (Ah Ah Ah)” keeps at No. 4, after reaching No. 2; and Ed Sheeran’s “Shivers” lifts 6-5, after hitting No. 3. Meanwhile, Taylor Swift’s “All Too Well (Taylor’s Version)” drops to No. 6, a week after it soared in atop the Billboard Global Excl.

And here it comes... This week on Khan's weekly updates on the Global 200, the first week of December, we encounter the Christmas freeze! This was not so bad last year because it was every song's first few weeks on the chart. They were gaining new peaks and everything and it was neat. But now it's all re-entries... Don't expect too much shaking up of my particular records until January. Things are gonna get RIGID. docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1jSdctFcLyQl6HJYoi9Jr2OHFGkn-TBnxWVFNxMlzrto/edit?usp=sharing- So ah... been chilly recently, hasn't it? (there are no new peaks) - Fine, more room for the December 4 specific news! Tiësto has taken the title for top Dutch song of the week from himself, now shifting from his Karol G collab to his Ava Max collab. I was so sure Duncan Laurence would hold that title for at least one week... A similar thing happens with Cuba. Camila Cabello's new single from a few months back underperformed hard compared to her previous work, and it's fallen off the chart completely leaving "Señorita" as the top Cuban song this week. - Yeah that's really it. Weird innit? |
