Justin Bieber Scores 18th Streaming Songs Top 10 Hit With ‘Lonely’
Justin Bieber reaches the top 10 of Billboard’s Streaming Songs chart for the 18th time with “Lonely,” which bows at No. 6 on the list dated Oct. 31. The track is co-credited to Benny Blanco.
In its first week of release, the tracking week running Oct. 16-22, “Lonely” debuts with 16.3 million U.S. streams, according to Nielsen Music/MRC Data.
“Lonely” marks Bieber’s third straight top 10, following “Stuck With U,” with Ariana Grande, which peaked at No. 4 in May 2020, and “Holy,” featuring Chance the Rapper, which bowed at No. 2 earlier this month.
With 18 Streaming Songs top 10s, Bieber is tied for the fourth-most top 10s in the history of the chart, which began in 2013. Grande and Lil Uzi Vert both also have 18 top 10s, while Post Malone and The Weeknd each have 19. Drake leads all acts with 48.
Meanwhile, it’s Blanco’s first top 10 as a credited artist; his only other appearance, “Eastside” with Halsey and Khalid, peaked at No. 16 in September 2018. (As a producer and/or writer, he’s nabbed multiple charting titles.)
Concurrently, “Lonely” starts at No. 13 on the multi-metric Billboard Hot 100.
