“Guess” is poised for a strong debut week. The song debuted with nearly 7 million streams in its first 24 hours on Spotify and has already amassed more than 15 million streams. It is also aiming for a number 1 debut on the UK Singles Chart, which would be Charli xcx’s first chart-topping hit since her 2012 smash “I Love It” and her second overall. Billie Eilish, meanwhile, is no stranger to chart-topping success, with two number 1 hits already under her belt, the most recent being “What Was I Made For?”
The song is accompanied by a playful music video directed by Aidem Zamiri. The video starts with Charli dancing with other guests at a house party, before Billie crashes the scene in a bulldozer. The video concludes with the pair surrounded by thousands of bras and underwear, adding a whimsical and memorable visual to their already popular collaboration.
