Sabrina Carpenter boasts the top song in the world, as “Espresso” rebounds for a third week at No. 1 on the Billboard Global 200 chart and brews up an eighth week atop the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. survey.
Notably, “Espresso” ties for the longest command on Global Excl. U.S. this year, matching the No. 1 run of Benson Boone’s “Beautiful Things.”

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.
“Espresso” tops the Global 200 with 80.9 million streams (down 7%) and 8,000 sold (up 3%) worldwide July 12-18.

Also in the Global 200’s top 10, Eminem’s “Houdini” bounds 16-8 with 53.9 million streams (up 38%) and 9,000 sold (up 11%) worldwide. It led the list in its debut week in June.
Carpenter’s “Espresso” rules Global Excl. U.S. with 58.1 million streams (down 7%) and 3,000 sold (down 4%) outside the U.S. July 12-18.
