“kiss me” (#3), “oh well” (#4), “stay” (#5), “big feelings” (#6), “like i do” (#7), and “freak” (#8) also chart higher than music from any other artist.
Ella Langley’s “Choosin’ Texas” breaks the Ariana Grande streak by claiming the #9 position; Grande’s “never get over me” then follows at #10.
Her “warning signs (interlude)” (#11), “bad thing (bunny hop)” (#12), and “nowhere, nobody” (#13) claim the next slots, meaning no track from the album appears below #13.
— “petal,” “hate that i made you love me,” and “kiss me” also claim the Top 3 places globally. Appearing at #4; Shakira & Burna Boy’s “Dai Dai” is the lone non-Ariana Grande song in the global Top 10. “stay” (#5), “oh well” (#6), “big feelings” (#7), “like i do” (#8), “freak” (#9), and “never get over me” (#10) form the balance of said Top 10.
