The song, from the star singer-songwriter’s new album,The Romantic, which likewise starts atop the U.S.-based Billboard 200, is his third Global 200 leader, and first on his own (since the chart began in 2020), after “Die With a Smile,” with Lady Gaga, dominated for 18 weeks in September 2024 through last May and “APT.,” with ROSÉ, ruled for 12 weeks in November 2024-February 2025.

Bad Bunny’s “DtMF” adds a fourth total and consecutive week at No. 1 on the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. chart.

The song has led following his Super Bowl LX halftime show performance Feb. 8 in Santa Clara, Calif., where it was the closing cut in his set.

Plus, PinkPantheress’ “Stateside,” with Zara Larsson, flies 11-2 on the Global 200 and 15-2 on Global Excl. U.S. The song has heated up further since Alysa Liu skated to it in her exhibition performance at the Milano Cortina Winter Olympics Feb. 21.

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.

According to Aceshowbiz, in its debut week (February 27-March 5), Risk It Allled the Global 200 with 51.7 million streams and 9,000 copies sold worldwide.

At the same time, Stateside climbed to No. 2 on the Global 200 with 52.4 million streams, marking a 60% increase, and 2,000 copies sold, a 14% rise globally.

This track marks a new career peak for both PinkPantheress and Zara Larsson, each earning their second top 10 on the chart.

Previously, PinkPantheress achieved No. 3 with Boy’s a Liar, Pt. 2 featuring Ice Spice in 2023, and Zara Larsson reached No. 8 with the resurgence ofLush Life earlier this year.

DtMF slipped to No. 3 on the Global 200 after a five-week run at No. 1 between January 2025 and the previous week.

Olivia Dean’s Man I Need dropped to No. 4 from its peak at No. 2, while Bruno Mars's lead single from The Romantic, I Just Might, rebounded from No. 15 to No. 5 after initially debuting at No. 4.

The Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts (dated March 14) will update on Billboard.com tomorrow, March 10.
