‘Billie Jean’ Poised to Top Spotify’s Global Chart

Michael Jackson’s “Billie Jean” is on track to claim the No. 1 spot on Spotify’s global weekly songs chart when the platform updates its rankings for the week labeled May 29.

The 1982 hit, one of Jackson’s most enduring singles, continues to show remarkable staying power more than four decades after its release. A return to the top of Spotify’s global chart would underscore the song’s continued resonance across generations and its prominence in streaming-era listening habits.

Spotify’s weekly chart reflects global streaming activity from Friday through Thursday and is expected to be published under the platform’s Charts section.
