The most played songs on Spotify in 2024

At the end of the year, it is time to recap the year in music. These were the ten most played songs on the Spotify platform, according to 2024 Spotify Wrapped.

This is the undisputed number-one hit of 2024. The lyrics of this funky pop song use a metaphor for the coffee drink to describe a feeling of energy, intensity, and addiction.

'Espresso' was the first single from the American singer's sixth studio album, 'Short n' Sweet.' For Sabrina Carpenter, it has been a wonderful year. She sang at Coachella, among others.

The lead single from Benson Boone's debut album, 'Fireworks and Rollerblades,' takes the No. 2 spot. The ballad, co-written by Boone, Jack LaFrantz, and Evan Blair, reached No. 1 on the Billboard Global 200.

'Beautiful Things' speaks about the meaning of life, gratitude for it, and how unpredictable happiness can be. In addition, the lyrics explore the fears of losing people who are important to you.

The third spot is for this single from Billie Eilish's third studio album, 'Hit Me Hard and Soft.' While the Grammy nominations for this album are still pending, many media have placed 'Hit Me Hard and Soft' among the ten best albums of 2024.

Billie and her brother Finneas collaborated on the song, which they described as a deep exploration of the belief in a lasting love for one's entire life.

The solo version by Alan Felipe Galleguillos, known artistically as FloyyMenor (image), was released in December 2023, and the duet with Cris Mj in February of this year. A reggaeton track by the Chilean singers, it talks about chasing a woman and earned them a Billboard Music Award for Top Latin Song.

The American singer-songwriter’s second single from his 2023 debut album 'I’ve Tried Everything but Therapy' charts at No. 5 in the Spotify list.

The song climbed to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 over 32 weeks, making it the longest run to the top for a solo male artist in the chart's 65-year history. It also spent 45 weeks in the top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100, making it the second-longest-charting song in the US.

This song by American actor and singer-songwriter Joe Keery, under his stage name Djo, was released in 2022 as part of the album 'Decide'. However, it did not gain traction until 2024, when it was widely used on TikTok and entered the charts of several countries in late February 2024.

You may know the artist from the series 'Stranger Things'. His popular synth-pop song talks about the feeling of returning to one's home in Chicago and what it means to look back on growing up there.

Seventh place goes to Irish singer-songwriter Hozier, who released a catchy song in March 2024 - the first from his fifth EP 'Unheard.' The track describes how differences can evolve during a relationship. "You're too sweet for me," the singer chants, among other catchy phrases.

Eighth place goes to the song by Canadian singer-songwriter Abel Tesfaye, better known as The Weeknd, collaborating with the South Korean singer of the group Blackpink and the French-American actress and singer Lily Rose-Depp (photo).

It was released in December 2023 as a single from the fourth episode of the HBO television series 'The Idol'. The song addresses control, fame, desire, and Stockholm syndrome. It experienced a surge in popularity after going viral on TikTok.

The song written by Taylor Swift, Jack Antonoff, and Annie Clark made it to the ninth spot in this list. With synth-pop and industrial music sounds, it was released alongside her seventh studio album 'FristLover' in 2019 but became popular in 2023 as a result of 'The Eras Tour', which led to it being released as the fifth official single on 'Lover' in 2023.

First released in 2019, the song narrates the uncertainty of the beginning of Taylor's relationship with Joe Alwyn at the time.

Number 10 goes to this soft rock ballad, written and produced by both American performers with support from D'Mile and Andrew Watt. James Fauntleroy is also listed as the composer of this soulful track.

The song honors the unconditional love of a couple, while both relate that they would die happy if they were by each other's side. 96 days after its release, 'Die with a Smile' broke the record for the song that reached one billion streams on Spotify the fastest.
