In addition, Newsboys' "We Believe" is nominated for a Billboard Music Award for Top Christian Song. The band's longest-running #1 single to date, "We Believe" also serves as the theme song of Pure Flix's current box office hit "Do You Believe?" which stars Academy Award®-winner Mira Sorvino, Sean Astin, Cybill Shepherd and Lee Majors, among others.
Billboard Music Awards finalists are based on album and digital song sales, radio airplay, streaming, touring and social media interactions, which are tracked year-round by Billboard and its data partners, including Nielsen Music and Next Big Sound.
