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.
“The Fate of Ophelia” leads the Global 200 with 58 million streams and 12,000 sold worldwide in the week ending Jan. 22.
The entire Global 200’s top five remains in place, with Djo’s “End of Beginning” at No. 2, two weeks after it became the singer-songwriter and actor’s first Global 200 No. 1; HUNTR/X’s “Golden” at No. 3, after 18 weeks on top beginning last July; Bruno Mars’ “I Just Might” at No. 4 in its second week on the chart; and Olivia Dean’s “Man I Need” at No. 5, after reaching No. 3.
Zara Larsson earns her first Global 200 top 10, as “Lush Life” leaps 11-8 led by 35 million streams worldwide. The Swedish artist released the song in June 2015; it hit the chart for the first time in December as it surged in viral activity. A week ago, it reached the top 10 on Global Excl. U.S., where this week it rises to No. 7. (“U.S., catch up!,” she teased/commanded.)
“The Fate of Ophelia” rules Global Excl. U.S. with 44.7 million streams and 5,000 sold outside the U.S.
“End of Beginning” is steady at its No. 2 Global Excl. U.S. high; “Golden” keeps at No. 3 after a record 20 weeks at No. 1 since July; RAYE’s “Where Is My Husband!” has and holds a No. 5 best; and “I Just Might” drops 4-5 in its second week.
Elsewhere, Dave and Tems’ “Raindance” climbs 12-8 on Global Excl. U.S., powered by 27.6 million streams beyond the U.S. The new No. 1 on the Official UK Singles Chart marks the second Global Excl. U.S. top 10 for Dave, from London, and the first for Tems, from Nigeria.
