BTS & Coldplay Set New Record
Feb 4, 2022 | 5:56 AM
BTS and Coldplay’s collaboration, “My Universe” has now been on the U.K. singles chart for 16 weeks and becomes the fourth-longest-charting track of all-time. According to Forbes, this means that BTS has now broken their own record and “Butter” drops to become the fifth-longest-charting title.
The song has become a much bigger hit in the U.K. than in the U.S. and although it dipped slightly on the charts, a lot of the U.K. success is credited to Coldplay, because it’s their homeland.
Rounding out the top 5 biggest hits in the U.K., Pinkfong’s “Baby Shark” is still the longest-charting single, Psy’s “Gangnam Style” is second place, and “Dynamite,” by BTS is 3rd.
SIDE NOTES
- “My Universe” dips slightly this week, sliding from No. 30 to No. 36.
