The FIFA World Cup ended nearly a month ago, but the song that soundtracked it refuses to leave. Shakira and Burna Boy’s “Dai Dai (FIFA World Cup Official Song 2026)” is holding the top spot on the Billboard Global 200 for a fifth consecutive week, and has now led the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. chart for eight frames straight.
The numbers behind that run are genuinely hard to argue with. For the tracking week of August 7 to 13, the song pulled in 44.1 million streams and 6,000 in sales worldwide, according to Luminate, even with both figures dipping around 10% from the previous week.
Outside the U.S., it logged 37.8 million streams and 4,000 in sales, still enough to hold the top position on the Global Excl. U.S. chart where it first reigned at the start of July.
What makes this run interesting is the context around it. The World Cup final between Spain and Argentina took place on July 19 at New York New Jersey Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, and Shakira and Burna Boy performed at halftime, giving the song one of the biggest live stages on the planet. That moment clearly gave “Dai Dai” a momentum that has outlasted the tournament itself by weeks.
In the U.S., the song is still climbing rather than fading. It rose to No. 3 as the Greatest Gainer on Rhythmic Airplay and previously topped Latin Airplay for a week in late July, which points to a domestic audience that came to the track through radio rather than the World Cup broadcast alone.
That split between global streaming dominance and a separate U.S. radio trajectory tells two different stories about how the song is actually travelling.
The rest of the Global 200 top five shows some familiar names shuffling positions. Ariana Grande’s “Hate That I Made You Love Me” drops to No. 2 after spending three nonconsecutive weeks at No. 1 since June, while Ella Langley’s “Choosin’ Texas” rebounds from No. 4 to No. 3. Grande’s “Petal” falls to No. 4 from its No. 2 debut.
The biggest story outside “Dai Dai” this week is Tame Impala, who are riding a wave that has nothing to do with a new release. “Loser” vaulted from No. 51 to No. 5 on the Global 200, up 72% to 30 million streams worldwide, entirely off the back of its placement in Spider-Man: Brand New Day.
The film has crossed two billion dollars globally at the box office across its first three weekends, and the soundtrack is clearly pulling listeners straight to streaming.
It is actually the third Spider-Man related track to surge this week, which is a detail worth sitting with. Steve Lacy’s “Oh Yeah?,” also featured in the new film, jumped from No. 158 to No. 23 with 20.5 million streams worldwide, up 95%.
Post Malone and Swae Lee’s “Sunflower (Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse)” from 2018 also bounced back, moving from No. 53 to No. 29 with 22.8 million streams, up 18%. A single blockbuster film accounting for three of the week’s biggest chart movers is not something that happens often.
For Tame Impala specifically, this is their second top 10 on the Global 200, following “Dracula” with JENNIE, which hit No. 2 in April.
Both songs come from their 2025 album Deadbeat, meaning the record is still generating real chart activity months after release, through two completely different cultural pipelines.
The Billboard Global 200 and Global Excl. U.S. charts are dated August 22, 2026, and update on Billboard.com on August 18.
With “Dai Dai” still pulling tens of millions of streams a week and the Spider-Man soundtrack showing no signs of cooling, the next few chart cycles are going to be worth watching closely.
