Ahh, summer. Time for long days, warm nights, and outdoor adventures. While this year may look a little different in many parts of the world, one thing's for sure: music will continue to be the backdrop for the best moments the season has to offer.
So what songs are most likely to soundtrack summer 2020? We turned to our global curation team to find out. They took a look into their crystal ball (a.k.a. current streaming numbers and trends) to come up with Spotify's official Songs of Summer predictions. The songs that rack up the most streams by summer's end will join the ranks of past top songs, including Drake's In My Feelings and Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello's Se orita.
Speaking of which-for those who are feeling a bit nostalgic for summer days gone by, we're bringing back an oldie but goodie: Your Summer Rewind. This personalized playlist is comprised of songs listeners had on heavy rotation during previous summers.
Songs of Summer Predictions From hip-hop to indie, our 2020 Songs of Summer predictions have a little something for everyone.
Our list includes new hits like DaBaby's ROCKSTAR (feat. Roddy Ricch) and Megan Thee Stallion's Savage Remix (featuring Beyonc ), as well as older tracks like Watermelon Sugar by Harry Styles, which was released in 2019 but remains a fan favorite. Plus, as the cultural conversation has shifted on ways to support the Black community, two songs in particular have made a comeback: This is America by Childish Gambino and Alright by Kendrick Lamar, both of which are likely to be on repeat all summer long.
And now, for the moment you've all been waiting for. In no particular order, our list of summer 2020 predictions.
