Sabrina Carpenter‘s “Espresso” reigns as Billboard’s No. 1 global song of the summer for 2024.

The race for Billboard’s No. 1 global song this summer reflects performance on the weekly Billboard Global 200, from charts dated June 8-Sept. 7, spotlighting the biggest songs worldwide from Memorial Day through Labor Day. The Global 200 ranks songs based on streaming and sales activity culled from more than 200 territories around the world, as compiled by Luminate.

(Billboard recognizes that countries in the Southern Hemisphere were not in summer the past three months. Listeners in those territories might at least feel a bit warmer browsing the biggest worldwide hits over that span.)

“Espresso” buzzed to No. 1 on the Global 200 chart in June and spent all 14 weeks of the summer tracking span in the top three, the only song with such a perfect record in that stretch, and more than twice the total of any other hit; Billie Eilish’s “Birds of a Feather” and Carpenter’s “Please Please Please” logged six weeks each in the top three in that span and finish the summer at Nos. 2 and 4, respectively.

Here is a rundown of the 10 biggest global songs of the summer for 2024, with Carpenter the only act with multiple titles on the tally:

  • No. 1, “Espresso,” Sabrina Carpenter
  • No. 2, “Birds of a Feather,” Billie Eilish
  • No. 3, “A Bar Song (Tipsy),” Shaboozey
  • No. 4, “Please Please Please,” Sabrina Carpenter
  • No. 5, “Not Like Us,” Kendrick Lamar
  • No. 6, “I Had Some Help,” Post Malone feat. Morgan Wallen

  • No. 8, “Million Dollar Baby,” Tommy Richman
  • No. 9, “Too Sweet,” Hozier
  • No. 10, “Gata Only,” FloyyMenor X Cris Mj

Jung Kook’s “Seven,” featuring Latto, reigned as the No. 1 global song of the summer of 2023. Notably, led by Jung Kook, from South Korea, seven songs in the top 10 a year ago involved billed artists born outside the U.S. This year, paced by Pennsylvania native Carpenter, U.S.-born acts claim the top eight spots, followed by Hozier, from Ireland, and FloyyMenor and Cris Mj, both from Chile.

Meanwhile, Morgan Wallen is the only act to repeat in this year’s season-ending top 10 from last year. Post Malone’s “I Had Some Help,” on which he’s featured, places at No. 6, after Wallen’s “Last Night” wrapped at No. 6 for 2023.

As previously reported, “I Had Some Help” rules as the No. 1 title on Billboard’s Songs of the Summer chart for the 2024 summer season, as based on performance on the weekly, U.S.-based Billboard Hot 100 between Memorial Day and Labor Day.
