charts discussion Billboard: Troye Sivan’s ‘Angel Baby’ Resurges on Hits of the World Charts

Quote

Troye Sivan released “Angel Baby” in September 2021. Seven months later, it’s making global strides, blasting from No. 181 to No. 113 in its second week on the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. chart, a ranking of the top 200 songs in the world outside the U.S.

And with Billboard‘s newly launched Hits of the World charts, we can see where Sivan’s momentum is coming from: Asia.

“Angel Baby” holds steady at No. 2 on the April 23-dated Malaysia Songs and Indonesia Songs surveys; climbs to No. 4 on Singapore Songs; and debuts at No. 22 on Philippines Songs. In Malaysia, the only other English-language song in the top 10 is Justin Bieber’s “Ghost,” at No. 4.

My Country suddenly loves Troye Sivan’s song 

 

and many of them didn’t know that song is about boys love

Well, ID and MY are majority Muslim and PH is majority Catholic so obviously they skipped that part in their marketing 

(low-key stanning VN and TH tbh)
