\n\tHarry Styles<\/a>\u2019 \u201cAperture\u201d comes into immediate focus atop the Billboard Global 200<\/a> chart, where it debuts at No. 1. He earns his second leader on the list, after \u201cAs It Was\u201d launched in the top spot to start a 15-week command in 2022.<\/p>\n

\n\tMeanwhile, Taylor Swift<\/a>\u2019s \u201cThe Fate of Ophelia\u201d holds for a seventh week at No. 1 on the Billboard Global Excl. U.S.<\/a> chart. It debuted at the summit in October.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe 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.<\/p>\n

\n\tChart 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\u2019 calculations.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cAperture\u201d \u2014 the lead single from Styles\u2019 fourth album, Kiss All the Time. Disco, Occasionally, due March 6<\/a> \u2014 leads the Global 200 with 51.3 million streams and 9,000 sold worldwide Jan. 23-29, following its Jan. 22 release<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThe Fate of Ophelia\u201d falls to No. 2 after six weeks atop the Global 200 beginning in October; Djo\u2019s \u201cEnd of Beginning\u201d dips 2-3, three weeks after it became the singer-songwriter and actor\u2019s first leader; HUNTR\/X\u2019s \u201cGolden\u201d descends 3-4, after 18 weeks on top beginning last July; and Olivia Dean\u2019s \u201cMan I Need\u201d holds at No. 5, after reaching No. 3.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThe Fate of Ophelia\u201d leads Global Excl. U.S. with 41.9 million streams (down 6%) and 4,000 sold (down 28%) outside the U.S.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cEnd of Beginning\u201d is steady at its No. 2 Global Excl. U.S. high; \u201cAperture\u201d debuts at No. 3, becoming Styles sixth top 10 (as it marks his seventh on the Global 200), with 33.5 million streams and 4,000 sold beyond the U.S.; \u201cGolden\u201d drops 3-4 after a record 20 weeks at No. 1 since July; and RAYE\u2019s \u201cWhere Is My Husband!\u201d falls to No. 5 from Its No. 4 best.<\/p>\n
