Mine

"Mine"  is the fourteenth track by Bazzi, featured in the debut album "Cosmic". The song was self-released digitally as a single in Europe and the United States on October 12, 2017. Initially the song failed to chart, but made its chart debut on February 3, 2018, after becoming an internet meme. As of April 2018, the song has charted in several countries including the United States, where it peaked at number 11 on the Billboard Hot 100. The single is certified platinum in the United States, Australia, Canada and Sweden, and gold in New Zealand.

Background
Bazzi’s fifth single, "Mine" describes his love interest, where Bazzi confesses his obsession with the girl.

The single topped the iTunes Charts and preceded his sixth single, "Why?" While his previous single, "Beautiful" didn’t do terribly, “Mine” reached over 2 million downloads on Spotify in less than two months, and debuted on the Billboard Hot 100 at No. 56, peaking at No. 11.

Although the song released in October 2017, the song picked up massive traction in January 2018. Most of this can be attributed to a Snapchat Lense and viral internet meme which featured the song.

Viral popularity
The song became an internet meme after gaining popularity in late January 2018. The videos featured a slideshow of different pictures of the subject of the video with the Snapchat "hearts" filter and overlaying lyrics. The last word of each song line was surrounded by different "heart" and "kiss" emojis.
