Lady Gaga & Bruno Mars’ ‘Die With a Smile’ Tops Global 200 for Eighth Week, the Most of 2024

Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars’ “Die With a Smile” rules both the Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts for an eighth week.

The ballad now solely claims the longest Global 200 reign this year, surpassing the seven weeks that Benson Boone’s “Beautiful Things” posted at No. 1 in February-April. It also equals the longest Global Excl. U.S. command in 2024, tying the eight-week stays for “Beautiful Things” (February-April) and Sabrina Carpenter’s “Espresso” (May-July).

Plus, Jennie’s “Mantra” debuts at Nos. 2 and 3 on Global Excl. U.S. and the Global 200, respectively. It marks the BLACKPINK member’s fourth solo top 10 on the former and her third on the latter.

The Global 200 and Global Excl. U.S. charts, which began in September 2020, 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.

“Die With a Smile” leads the Global 200 with 110.3 million streams and 8,000 sold (down 5% week-over-week in each metric) worldwide Oct. 11-17. The song, which became Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars’ first No. 1 each since the chart began, has drawn over 100 million streams globally in each of the last seven weeks, the most such frames in a row since Miley Cyrus’ “Flowers” also linked seven triple-digit weeks from its chart start in January 2023.

Billie Eilish’s “Birds of a Feather” holds at No. 2 on the Global 200, following three weeks at No. 1 beginning in August.

Jennie’s “Mantra” debuts at No. 3 on the Global 200 with 74.9 million streams and 15,000 sold worldwide in the first full week following its Oct. 10 arrival. The BLACKPINK member adds her third solo top 10 on the chart; the group has collected four top 10s, while fellow members LISA (three top 10s), Jisoo and Rosé (one each) have also hit the tier as soloists.

Rounding out the Global 200’s top five, Carpenter’s “Espresso” holds at No. 4, following three nonconsecutive weeks at No. 1 beginning in June, and her “Taste” drops 3-5, after reaching No. 2.

“Die With a Smile” tops Global Excl. U.S. with 89.7 million streams (down 4%) and 4,000 sold (down 7%) outside the U.S. Oct. 11-17. As on the Global 200, the ballad became Gaga and Mars’ first No. 1 each since the survey launched.

Jennie’s “Mantra” enters Global Excl. U.S. at No. 2 with 69 million streams and 12,000 sold outside the U.S. Oct. 11-17. She adds her fourth solo top 10 on the chart — matching the four top 10s that BLACKPINK and the group’s LISA as a soloist have each notched; Jisoo and Rosé boast one solo top 10 apiece.

Eilish’s “Birds of a Feather” dips 2-3 on Global Excl. U.S., following three weeks at No. 1 beginning in August; Carpenter’s “Espresso” descends 3-4; and Karol G’s “Si Antes Te Hubiera Conocido” falls 4-5, after reaching No. 2.

Plus, Carpenter’s “Taste” ranks at No. 6 on Global Excl. U.S., after hitting No. 4, and “Please Please Please” places at No. 10, following a week at No. 1 in June; already the only artist with multiple weeks with three songs in the top 10 simultaneously this year, she logs an eighth week earning such a triple.
