“Sunflower” by Post Malone & Swae Lee

Post Malone and Swae Lee's "Sunflower" first surfaced in October 2018 on the soundtrack to the animated Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, a breezy meeting of pop and R&B that Louis Bell and Carter Lang produced for Republic. The next year it found a second home on Malone's third album, Hollywood's Bleeding.

Then it simply refused to leave. It topped the Billboard Hot 100, Malone's third chart-topper and Swae Lee's first as a solo artist, and spent 33 weeks in the top ten, tying the record at the time. It went to number one in Australia, Canada, Malaysia and New Zealand, drew Grammy nominations for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance and Record of the Year, and in February 2024 became the first song the RIAA certified double diamond, 20 times platinum.
