It reached number one in Bulgaria, Canada, the Czech Republic, Denmark and Israel and the top five in twenty-four countries worldwide. It peaked at number three on the US Billboard Hot 100, charted at number one on the US Pop Songs chart and at number 16 on the Hot Dance Club Songs chart. The single has sold over 10 million copies worldwide, making it one of the best selling singles of all time.
