Billie Eilish picked up more awards than we can count for her hit single “Bad Guy” and she just added another one to her growing collection. The track has been named the biggest global single of 2019 by the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry.
IFPI calculates its annual global digital singles chart based on consumption across audio streaming, video streaming and permanent downloads, and Eilish came on top with a total of 19.5 million global converted track equivalents.
IFPI CEO Frances Moore praised the young singer for finding enormous success in a short period of time and tackling important topics in her song and wished her another standout year. “Billie Eilish has taken the world by storm with her incredible voice and genre-defying sound. She is also an artist who addresses important issues like mental health in her lyrics that clearly resonate with her fans all over the world,” said Moore in a statement.
The list of songs on IFPI’s global singles chart for 2019 also included Lil Nas X’s smash hit “Old Town Road”, and Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello collaboration “Señorita.”
