Sunflower (Post Malone and Swae Lee song)

"Sunflower" is a song performed by American rappers and singers Post Malone and Swae Lee. It was released on October 19, 2018, as a single from the soundtrack to the 2018 animated film Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, and was later included on Post Malone's third studio album Hollywood's Bleeding (2019). An official remix features Latin singers Nicky Jam and Prince Royce.
"Sunflower" received acclaim from music critics. It became Malone's third and Lee's first song as a soloist to peak the US Billboard Hot 100 chart. The song ranked in the top ten of the chart for 33 weeks, at the time sharing the record for the most such weeks with "Girls Like You" by Maroon 5 featuring Cardi B and "Shape of You" by Ed Sheeran (Post Malone then broke this record with his 2019 single "Circles"). "Sunflower" also reached number one in Australia, Canada, Malaysia, and New Zealand, as well as the top ten in 12 additional countries. It has received double diamond (20-times platinum) certification by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) in the US, as well as diamond in Canada, Australia, and Mexico. By December 2023, it was set to become the first song to receive the certification in the United States—signifying 20 million units in sales; the certification was finalized in February 2024. The song was the fourth-best-selling R&B song of the 2010s decade in the US. On the Billboard Global 200 singles chart, the song peaked at number 20 upon the issue date of June 24, 2023.
"Sunflower" was nominated for Record of the Year and Best Pop Duo/Group Performance at the 62nd Annual Grammy Awards.
