Internet reactions to Jisoo and Zayn's 'Eyes Closed' entering the Global Spotify chart at #21

Pop Base took to its official X (formerly Twitter) page to share that,

"‘Eyes Closed’ by JISOO and Zayn debuts at #21 on the Global Spotify chart with 3.25 million streams. It also debuts at #112 on US Spotify with 386k streams."

Fans were soon gathered under the comments of the X post as they penned their thoughts about the track's debut milestone. Below are some of their remarks:

"They did this organically with almost zero promo mind you. Just pure talent and recognition. Oh Jisoo and blackpink you truly paved the way", noted a netizen.

"Not gonna lie, I’m a bit surprised that with all the buzz around JISOO and Zayn, the song didn’t hit higher on the US Spotify chart. 3.25 million streams globally sounds solid, but for artists with such huge fanbases, you would expect it to soar way past #21 worldwide and crack the top 100 in the US much easier. There’s always going to be loads of competition and people streaming tons of music every day, but these numbers make me wonder if the song is just growing slowly or if it’s not catching on as fast as everyone hoped. Streaming does not always tell the whole story about how much people like a song, but it is a huge part of how success is measured now, so this is definitely a mixed bag for me.", commented another.

"JISOO's first major Western collab and it's already charting globally! BLINKs and Zayn fans really showed up for this one. Can't wait to see where it goes from here", penned a third.

Others also chimed in:

"3.25M streams globally but only 386k in the US… proof that sometimes the world’s taste moves faster than Billboard hype. 👀", declared a fan.

"Talk about a dynamic duo! 'EYES CLOSED' is just the beginning! 🎤🔥", hyped another.

"A global flex with a local struggle, celebrate the worldwide splash, but probation in the US charts.", wrote a third.

Eyes Closed can be streamed across all major audio streaming platforms.
