The race for the song of the summer is heating up as a handful of huge hits are rising or holding their place on the charts. Amidst all the activity in the global music industry, there is one song that continues to reign supreme, outlasting almost all other pop songs.

Miley Cyrus's "Flowers" has returned to the No. 1 position on the Billboard Global 200 chart, which ranks the most-consumed songs in the world. The chart's methodology takes into account streams and sales, and after briefly stepping aside and vacating the top spot, the pop star is back with her massive worldwide smash.

"Flowers" jumps from No. 3 to No. 1 on the Billboard Global 200, reclaiming its throne from "Ella Baila Sola" by Eslabon Armado and Peso Pluma, which has fallen to third place. The two tunes swap spots with one another, with Yng Lvcas and Pluma’s “La Bebe” keeping in the runner-up rung.

During the past tracking week, "Flowers" accumulated an impressive 49.7 million streams and sold 9,000 copies, according to data published by Billboard. These numbers are quite healthy, especially considering the song's longevity.

While it is not unusual for Cyrus to top a Billboard chart, achieving this feat with a song as old as "Flowers" is noteworthy. The smash hit has been in the world for over six months, and most pop songs do not have a shelf life that long. And those that manage to hang on for half a year rarely rise back to No. 1 on any list.

"Flowers" debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Global 200 in January, just one week after its release on January 12. It maintained its position for six consecutive weeks before Karol G and Shakira's "TQG" took the crown for one week. "Flowers" then immediately returned to the top spot for another six frames. It seemed like the tune's reign was over, but now it has made a comeback after a 10-week absence from the No. 1 position on the chart. Billboard notes that this is the longest stretch between stints in the spotlight, excluding holiday hits, which operate differently.

The fact that "Flowers" is still performing exceptionally well is nothing short of shocking, and it is a testament to the power and catchiness of the song. While Cyrus's star power undoubtedly contributes to its success, it appears that the masses simply can't get enough of this single. It is poised to continue its impressive run for some time to come.
