along with Espresso and Nonsense.

The song peaked at #2 on the Hot 100 in late summer/early fall 2020. It was overshadowed by mega-smashes WAP and Dynamite:

After a solid debut at #2, Halsey drops to #179 this week. Probably one of the biggest drops in Billboard history. What happend? The album has also left the UK Album Top 100 after one week, peaking at #19.

It also makes 'Short n' Sweet' just the second album released in 2024 to reach multi-platinum eligibility.
