Taylor Swift’s “august” later reached number 46 on the Billboard Global 200.
The Global 200 ranks songs using activity from more than 200 territories, combining official streams and sales. “august” gained new international attention after its recurring seasonal resurgence, eventually reaching that position in 2023.
This peak is distinct from the song’s original U.S. Hot 100 performance, where it reached number 23 in 2020. It also differs from country-specific results such as number 16 in Canada and number 13 in Australia upon release.
The track’s Global 200 rise illustrates how a non-single album song can develop a long afterlife. Annual August listening, memes, and short-form video activity helped keep the recording visible well beyond its initial album cycle.
