Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars’ “Die With a Smile” tops both the Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts for a sixth total and consecutive week.

Plus, The Weeknd and Playboi Carti’s “Timeless” debuts at No. 3 on the Global 200 and No. 4 on Global Excl. U.S.

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 117.3 million streams (down less than 1% week-over-week) and 9,000 sold (up 3%) worldwide Sept. 27-Oct. 3. The song is Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars’ first No. 1 each since the chart began.

Notably, the duet has drawn over 100 million streams globally in each of the last five weeks – the most such frames for a song this year; it surpassed Sabrina Carpenter’s “Please Please Please” and Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us,” each with three.

Billie Eilish’s “Birds of a Feather” holds at No. 2 on the Global 200, following three weeks at No. 1 beginning in August. It soared by 18% to 90.3 million streams and 45% to 10,000 sold worldwide following the Sept. 27 premiere of its official video.

The Weeknd and Playboi Carti’s “Timeless” enters the Global 200 at No. 3. Released Sept. 27, it starts with 66.2 million streams and 7,000 sold worldwide in its first week. The Weekend earns his 13th top 10 since the survey began and Playboi Carti, his fourth.

Carpenter claims three songs in the Global 200’s top 10 for a sixth week: “Taste,” which holds at No. 4, after reaching No. 2; “Espresso” (3-5, following three nonconsecutive weeks at No. 1 beginning in June); and “Please Please Please” (6-7, after two weeks at No. 1 also starting in June). She’s the first artist to triple up in the top 10 over six weeks in 2024; next up, Eilish and Taylor Swift each have posted two such weeks this year.

“Die With a Smile” leads Global Excl. U.S. with 94.2 million streams (up less than 1%) and 5,000 sold (down 2%) outside the U.S. Sept. 27-Oct. 3. As on the Global 200, the ballad became Gaga and Mars’ first No. 1 each since the list launched.

Eilish’s “Birds of a Feather” keeps at No. 2 on Global Excl. U.S., following three weeks at No. 1 beginning in August, and Carpenter’s “Espresso” maintains the No. 3 spot, following eight nonconsecutive weeks at No. 1 beginning in May.

The Weeknd and Playboi Carti’s “Timeless” debuts at No. 4 on Global Excl. U.S. with 37.8 million streams and 1,000 sold in its first week. The Weekend adds his 11th top 10 and Playboi Carti, his third.

Karol G’s “Si Antes Te Hubiera Conocido” is steady at No. 5 on Global Excl. U.S., after hitting No. 2.

Plus, Carpenter’s “Taste” holds at No. 6 on Global Excl. U.S. (after reaching No. 4) and “Please Please Please” dips 7-10 (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 a sixth week achieving such a triple.
