Spotify reveals the most streamed songs of the summer

Spotify has revealed the most-streamed tracks of the summer – you can check out the full list below.

The streaming platform gathered data from June 1 to August 15 to compile run-downs of the biggest songs worldwide as well as in the UK.

Taking the top spot on both lists is DaBaby‘s Roddy Ricch-featuring single ‘Rockstar’, which was released back in April. Following in second place on the global list is ‘Blinding Lights’ by The Weeknd, while Lady Gaga‘s ‘Rain On Me’ took the Number Two UK position.

Also featured in the top 20 on both lists is Harry Styles‘ ‘Watermelon Sugar’, Dua Lipa‘s ‘Break My Heart’ and the viral ‘Death Bed (Coffee For Your Head)’ by Powfu and Beabadoobee.

DaBaby’s ‘Rockstar’ clocked up more than 380 million global plays on Spotify during this period, while The Weeknd’s ‘Blinding Lights’ bagged just shy of 340 million listens.

“I knew Rockstar was going to be a hit while I was creating the record,” said DaBaby (via Music Week). “But to watch the world make it into a global hit is an amazing feeling. God is great!”







Elsewhere, AJ Tracey appears three times on the UK list with ‘Dinner Guest’, ‘Rain’ and ‘West Ten’. Stormzy, meanwhile, features at Number 13 with ‘I Dunno’, his collaboration with Tion Wayne and Dutchavelli.
