How did this song blow up so fast? Sam Smith hasn’t had a hit in the US since 2019, but has released many singles since. Kim hasn’t really been a mainstream artist, but I understand she has been trying to breakthrough and has a dodgy label. 

TIKTOK WAS HUUUGE FOR THIS SONG.

In the lead up for the release and after it was (and still is actually) all over the app. I think that helped spread the song around and given TikTok's popularity right now.

"Smith and Petras are the first publicly non-binary and transgender soloists, respectively, to top the Hot 100."https://www.billboard.com/music/chart-beat/sam-smith-kim-petras-unholy-number-one-hot-100-1235160237/

Not a huge fan of the song, but this is iconic! Congrats to them!

Didn't Pete Burns was the first non-binary who reached the #1 in the 80s with You Spin Me Around?, of course when tags like "non-binary" weren't created yet...

It’s never showed up on my for you page. Guess TikTok doesn’t think it’s for me and they are correct

The power of Tik Tok. Honestly this is such a random #1 but it's nice to see it happen. The timing was perfect because Taylor is about to dominate next week and would've been hard to push it.

Pete Burns identified as a gay male and never had any intentions to transition, or present as anything other than a man. He was very adamant about this.

I don't understand the hate for this song. It's such a BOP! Makes me feel like a bad b*tch every time I hear it. And don't even get me started about the impact it has at the club. There wasn't a single soul not on the dance floor singing at the top of their lungs.

Say what you want about the song and about Kim, but this is a huge moment for the trans community! Congrats and I'm wishing all my trans friends a wonderful day!
