Both his own single,,,,,“Love Yourself” and his collaboration with Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee, “Despacito,” blew past the one billion-stream mark on Spotify, proving them to be some of the most popular tracks of all-time on the platform. Those two tunes join his other beloved pop tune “Sorry,” which became the fifth song on the site to reach one billion streams (and the singer’s first) last year.
Thanks to the recent success of both “Love Yourself” and “Despacito,” Bieber is now the only musician who can claim to have three songs on the world’s most popular streaming outlet that have been played at least one billion times. By claiming a third, he passes fellow singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran, who is the only other artist with more than one track inside the billion-plus club......ntil this week, he was the only one who had seen two massive releases collect that many streams, but in just a few days,,,,,ber joined him, and then quickly passed him.....
All three of Bieber’s lucky tunes mentioned here spent at least one week at No. 1 in the U.S., and they were all global smashes. Impressively, two of them (“Sorry” and “Love Yourself”) were featured on his last album Purpose, while “Despacito” is actually still not included on any album, despite the fact that it is one of the biggest hits in history......
It looks like Bieber will become the first musician with four, and then five, songs that have been streamed one billion times on Spotify in short order.......... pair of tracks (his DJ Snake collaboration “Let Me Love You” and his own “What Do You Mean?”) that are about to pass 900 million streams, and while it will likely take several months (if not a year or so) to turn nine digits into 10, there aren’t any other artists who are even close at the moment to achieving what Bieber has already done or what he seems like he’ll do very soon.................
