The Brit Award for International Song is an award given by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI), an organisation which represents record companies and artists in the United Kingdom.[1] The accolade is presented at the Brit Awards, an annual celebration of British and international music.[2] The winners and nominees are determined by the Brit Awards voting academy with over one thousand members, which comprise record labels, publishers, managers, agents, media, and previous winners and nominees.[3]
The inaugural winner of the category was Olivia Rodrigo with "Good 4 U", a single from her debut album Sour. In 2023 Beyoncé became the first artist to win in two categories for international acts at the same award ceremony, winning for International Artist and International Song with "Break My Soul". The current recipients of the award are New Zealand-South Korean singer Rosé and Bruno Mars for their song "APT.", becoming, respectively, the first non-American winner and the first male artist to win.
Billie Eilish and Taylor Swift hold the record for most nominations in the category, with three. Noah Kahan's "Stick Season" is the first song to be nominated in consecutive years. French producer David Guetta is the only non-American artist with multiple nominations.
History
[edit]The category was introduced in 2022 following a restructuring which resulted in the removal of gendered categories.[4] It is the first award to recognise individual songs by international artists and only the second category, following the Brit Award for International Album (1977, 2002-2011), to honor the work of international artists rather than the artists themselves.
