What Will the Summer Anthem Be in 2025? Spotify Offers Its Predictions

Curious about which track will rule your playlists and summer gatherings this year? Spotify believes it has the solution. The streaming powerhouse has unveiled its yearly compilation of forecasts for the Songs of the Summer 2025 — and it’s brimming with promising anthems.

From viral TikTok sensations to globally acclaimed hits, Spotify’s editorial team has compiled 30 tracks they expect will capture the spirit of the season. The listing isn’t in any particular order; instead, it’s arranged alphabetically by artist, featuring a wide array of genres, vibes, and international influences.

Prominent selections include Tyla’s sun-drenched collaboration “Show Me Love” with WizTheMc and bees & honey, Charli XCX’s beloved “party 4 u,” and Bad Bunny’s catchy “NUEVAYoL.” Lady Gaga steps in with her Swift-like ballad “How Bad Do U Want Me,” while Ravyn Lenae presents a soulful tribute to intricate relationships with “Love Me Not.”

Is your top song included? Although Spotify’s forecasts are derived from streaming data and editorial expertise, each individual has their personal summer anthem. For what it’s worth, my selections for the summer are Obongjayar’s “Not in Surrender” and TOKiMONSTA’s “On Sum” featuring Anderson .Paak and Rae Khalil — but hey, it’s not my list.
