Billie Eilish, the renowned singer-songwriter, has achieved a significant milestone in her career as her latest single 'Birds of a Feather' has climbed to the top spot on both of Billboard's global charts - the Billboard Global 200 and the Billboard Global 200 Excl. US. This achievement marks Eilish's first time leading these prestigious rankings.

Despite her longstanding success in the music industry, with numerous chart-topping hits under her belt, Eilish had not previously reached the pinnacle of these particular charts. The introduction of Billboard's global rankings in 2020 coincided with Eilish's rise to fame, providing her with a new opportunity to claim the top position.

Prior to 'Birds of a Feather,' Eilish had come close to securing the No. 1 spot with tracks like 'Therefore I Am' and 'What Was I Made For?' which peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard Global 200. Additionally, her collaboration with Charli XCX on the remix of 'Guess' has also entered the top 10 on both charts, further solidifying Eilish's presence in the music scene.

The success of 'Birds of a Feather' comes after BTS member Jimin's reign at the top of the charts, with his song 'Who' holding the No. 1 position for multiple weeks. Eilish's latest achievement not only marks a personal milestone but also underscores her continued relevance and influence in the global music landscape.

As Eilish celebrates her debut No. 1 on Billboard's global charts, fans and industry observers alike are eager to see what new heights the talented artist will reach in the future. With her distinctive sound and creative vision, Eilish remains a force to be reckoned with in the music industry.
