Billie Eilish has become the first female artist in Spotify history to earn six songs with more than two billion streams. The milestone was officially reached after “everything i wanted” surpassed the two-billion mark, placing Eilish ahead of Dua Lipa, who previously held the record with five tracks above the threshold.
The achievement arrives as Eilish wraps her Hit Me Hard and Soft Tour and continues to build streaming momentum. In recent days, both “everything i wanted” and her breakout hit “ocean eyes” crossed the two-billion mark, joining the four tracks that had already reached the milestone: “Lovely,” “bad guy,” “Birds of a Feather,” and “when the party’s over.”

Eilish’s rise to historic streaming success began in 2017 with the release of her debut EP don’t smile at me. The project introduced listeners to her intimate vocal style and minimalist production, anchored by early standouts like “ocean eyes” and “bellyache.” It climbed to No. 14 on the Billboard 200 and marked the start of a global following that has only intensified.
Her debut album, WHEN WE ALL FALL ASLEEP, WHERE DO WE GO?, cemented her as a cultural force. The record debuted at No. 1 in the United States and 15 other countries, becoming her most-streamed project with more than 13 billion Spotify streams. Eilish expanded her artistic reach with Happier Than Ever, which debuted at No. 1 in 29 countries. Last year, the Grammy- and Oscar-winning superstar returned with her third album, Hit Me Hard and Soft, continuing her streak. The LP debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 with Eilish’s strongest streaming debut to date. Less than two years after its release, it has already accumulated more than nine billion Spotify streams.
