DWAS was the #14 biggest-selling global single of 2024 (via IFPI)

[JustTea 6,957]

"subscription streams equivalent"

So it needed 70M more "paid" streams to enter top 10...

I think it also has to do with the calendar year defined by IFPI. Do we have the start and end dates? I think DWAS is currently on track to go #1 for 2025, maybe it’s October to October or something?

January-December

Yeah it must be the tracking period because it says equivalent in streams ( billions ) and only lists DWAS & APT as having only over 1 billion each. They both have more. I am guessing both will be Top 10 next year!

Well if that is the case color me surprised… I know DWAS only had 4-ish months but still it feels like it should’ve been higher

The reason its so low is only because the song came out to late in the year. Its literally on track to be #1 for 2025

But how is APT. so close? It is big on non-subscription services, and it was released in the middle of October.

I thinks it’s cause most of us can’t buy houses so we have to live in APTs. it’s relatable honestly.

A thanks reaction isn't enough. Can't stand that song. Basic lyrics, i understand the impact it had but it's a bit too much. Annoying as hell.

It's Jan-Dec.

APT has almost the same amount of streams as DWAS, ofc YouTube streams weight less. Still pretty surprising that DWAS has a lot of "free" streams that weight less. It had around 1.4B on Spotify alone, but its total was only 1.08B
