The Weeknd’s “Blinding Lights” Is The First Song To Hit 4 Billion Streams On Spotify
The Weeknd’s cross-format smash “Blinding Lights” has a legitimate case as the biggest pop hit of all time. After spending four weeks at #1 in 2020, in 2021 it became the first song to spend more than a year in the Hot 100 top 10, then broke the record for most weeks on the chart. A year ago it surpassed Ed Sheeran’s “Shape Of You” to become the most-streamed song in Spotify history. Now it has surpassed 4 billion streams on the platform, the first song to do so.
