全球最畅销单曲列表

这是全球最畅销单曲列表，列表中所列单曲均是根据其销售份数进行统计排行，且所有数据都来源于可信的权威渠道，例如：新闻网站、报纸、杂志，以及与音乐有关的书籍。 值得注意的是，根据吉尼斯世界纪录的统计，宾·克罗斯比的《白色圣诞节（英语：White Christmas (song)）》（1942年发行）是全球最畅销单曲，预计销量超过5,000万份。在流行 / 摇滚单曲榜单之前，这首单曲被公认为“有史以来最畅销单曲”。在第一本《吉尼斯世界纪录》（1955年出版）一书中，这首单曲被认定为“世界最畅销单曲”。而且在此后50年里，这个认证依旧非常有名。同样的，吉尼斯世界纪录还指出，对于已故威尔士王妃戴安娜的致敬，艾尔顿·约翰在1997年发行的慈善双A单曲《风中之烛1997（英语：Candle in the Wind 1997） / Something About the Way You Look Tonight》为“自1950年代以来，英国与美国单曲榜上销量最大的单曲，预计销量为3,300万份”，成为全球第二畅销单曲。 这份列表分为两部分，一部分是实体单曲唱片（主要是CD或黑胶唱片）；另一部分则是21世纪初出现的数字单曲。 列表中部分单曲的销量数字为斜体，表明该销量为各大可统计市场的销量总计而非全球市场销量。因此本列表数据并不完整也不可完全可靠。 全球年度最畅销单曲榜单由国际唱片业协会自2007年开始发布，这个榜单发布在协会出版的两本年度出版物《数字音乐报告》和《唱片业数据》上。本榜单所统计销售数据包括数字单曲下载、音频或视频短信铃声、个性化定制回铃音、移动端单曲下载以及从2013年开始统计的等价流媒体播放量。同一单曲的不同版本的销售数据都被统计在本榜单内。 音乐主题 a.^ 销售数据包括数字单曲销量。 b.^ 销售数据包括单曲等价流媒体播放量（equivalent track streams）。 c.^ 销售数据包括实体唱片销量。 d.^ 销售数据包括个性化定制回铃音（例如：彩铃或炫铃）销售数据，该数据不由国际唱片业协会统计。 克雷格·葛倫代 (编).
