Olivia Rodrigo’s “Drop Dead” reached number one in five countries.
The song was released as the lead single from You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Love on April 17, 2026. Its number-one result included the United Kingdom and the United States, two of the most closely followed markets in Rodrigo’s international career.
The five-country figure describes peak chart position, not the number of countries where the song appeared on a chart or entered the top ten. Those are different measurements, and they should not be treated as interchangeable. A song can chart in many territories without reaching number one in all of them.
“Drop Dead” also has an important place within the album’s sequence: it is the opening track. Rodrigo wrote it with Amy Allen and Dan Nigro, and Nigro produced it. The song’s commercial performance helped establish the album before its June 12, 2026 release.
