Justin Bieber’s Global Smashes Rises To A New Peak Amidst His Musical Hiatus

Much of Justin Bieber’s musical output predates the introduction of Billboard’s global charts, which arrived in 2020. By that point, he was already one of the world’s most successful pop musicians, and he had scored dozens of hits all around the planet.

Despite that minor handicap, the Canadian Grammy winner has still managed to land many tracks on the global rosters, and he regularly appears with at least a song or two, even though he hasn’t promoted anything brand new in a long time – something his fans have taken notice of.

One of Bieber’s more popular collaborations is on the rise on one of Billboard’s worldwide lists at the moment. Almost a decade after it was released, the tune reaches a new all-time peak.

“Let Me Love You” Jumps to a New Chart Peak

“Let Me Love You,” Bieber’s collaboration with electronic producer DJ Snake, jumps almost 10 spaces on the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. ranking. That tally ranks the most consumed songs all around the planet, with streams and sales originating from American consumers removed. The smash slithers from No. 147 to No. 138, a position that now marks a new high point for the tune.

One of Justin Bieber’s Longest-Charting Tunes

Of Bieber’s 32 songs that have reached the Billboard Global Excl. U.S., “Let Me Love You” still ranks as one of his lowest-charting, as it’s only climbed to No. 138. It sits toward the bottom of his collection of wins on the tally, in terms of peak position. That said, it’s also one of his longer-running successes, as the catchy dance-pop tune is about to reach half a year on the list.

“Let Me Love You” Vs. “Lean On”

For DJ Snake, “Let Me Love You” is his longest-charting release. Its 25 weeks on the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. easily outpace the 10 frames that “Lean On,” his collaboration with Major Lazer and MØ, collected. But as is the case with Bieber, longevity doesn’t always equal a lofty high point, as several of DJ Snake’s other tunes have climbed to significantly higher peaks, though they haven’t held on for quite as long.

“Let Me Love You” and “Despacito” Climb Together

Bieber fills a pair of spots on the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. this week, and both of his wins are climbing. As “Let Me Love You” advances to a new peak, “Despacito,” his blockbuster team-up with Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee, pushes a few spaces north to No. 183. That tune has lived on the tally for much longer than “Let Me Love You” — 108 weeks versus 25 — and has climbed higher, as it previously stalled at No. 104.
