Wasn't Dynamite one of the most streamed songs in 2020
Shauzab Nashyaan
Excuse me! Where is Taylor Swift?
TessaRose Orgera
Most of this is FAKE because BTS should be on these lists since they are the most popular people in world so... And you know I'm right
thierry henon
So glad to see DOJA CAT at number 13!! but sad not to see any of DERMOT KENNEDY's singles in the Top 40!! OUTNUMBERED should have made the Top 20 at least!! Looking forward then to check the the Irish biggest songs and albums of 2020!!
TessaRose Orgera
But BTS should be on these charts since they are they are the most popular people in the world

Absolutely buzzing to see both of Nathan Dawes songs on here! Flowers was my lockdown anthem!
Bit upset becky hill didn’t make it :(
Wonder where head & heart would of got if it was released earlier on!
Surprising to see Before You Go so high I thought it would be top 10 not top 5!
BleeUK
Great to See Mr Brightside by Killers making it a whopping success, in History With Audio Stream figures in the UK, even on ACR Rules 4 years in a row!! in the Top 100 of the End Of The Year Countdown with #61 in 2020, #63 in 2019, #80 in 2018, & #87 in 2017, i have to point out with 34 million Spotify Plays in 2020, The Most Re-entry songs in the Top 100 in history, and 248 Weeks in UK Charts Top 100

There's a thing I don't understand: If 'Rain on Me' has been more sold and streamed than 'Breaking Me', why is the latter above the former in the Top 40 biggest songs?
Augustus Doministrix
DP See to be honest now I think the OCC don’t bother their a*se actually tallying up the sales now, they probably just make it all up from the tops of their heads
TessaRose Orgera
And I don't understand why BTS isnt on these charts

Head & Heart climbed above Don't Start Now at the last minute! If anything deserves top 5, it's that
TSwift19

i’ll comment on the full top 100 when it’s up, but i love a lot of the songs here, specifically lighter, roses, dance monkey, almost all the rap songs and everything i wanted. :)

It's interesting that the biggest song actually released this year is only at #5 overall.
Piran
I really wish that 'Don't Start Now' could've gone all the way to the top of the charts, but hey, at least 'Head & Heart' is in the Top 5 biggest songs of 2020! ;)
P
PN
I'm not complaining :)
Both deserved top 5, but one had to get at the end of the day. I can see the top 100 now though for some reason...
Piran
Both are 10/10's for me, but 'Head & Heart' is my favourite song of the entire year, haha. :)
DL
David Laing
I think Head & Heart had a disadvantage being released later in year. My evidence being Tones and I being no 2. It's how long you have to sell your record that counts
Piran
Yeah, songs that are released in the summer are at a disadvantage in these kind of lists like you said, since they often have chart runs that end up getting caught between years. :/
Piran
Absolutely no surprise whatsoever seeing 'Blinding Lights' at #1!
I don't think the biggest song of a particular year has been given this much critical acclaim since 'Uptown Funk' from 2015, haha. :)
DL
David Laing
Apart from Ed Sheeran Shape of you perhaps. Though I prefer Blinding Lights myself
Piran
I don't think that 'Shape Of You' was that well-received among the critics that I've watched, but it was certainly huge among the public! :P
I prefer 'Blinding Lights' myself though, haha.

ikr Blinding lights shattered all records

As it should! :D

Yeah in my apartment kids could be heard singing it all the time

I can definitely relate, haha. :)

Colleen Stringer
WHERE IS DYNAMITE
and Savage Love is with BTS for hot 100 # 1 thing include them. Why are you ignoring BTS
Giovanna Mousques
Legit. BTS SHOULD AT LEAST BE IN THE TOP TENS WITH THEIR SUCCESS but i guess this fake chart just doesnt deserve bts
J
JM
There's a thing I don't understand: If 'Rain on Me' has been more sold and streamed than 'Breaking Me', why is the latter above the former in the Top 40 biggest songs?
ᴮPTW
ᴮᴱBTS PAVED THE WAYᴬᴸᴮᵁᴹ
Notice how BTS is in the best-selling category, but not in the biggest songs, and most streamed songs, categories. Only legends can do that.

it will do, it probably get to #1 for the year with 1.8 million, with streaming is out of the world 211 Million!, but if you look at the pure sales and download not great at all, those streamers don't wants to buy a top track! only 177K download so far Since Jan to now, that terrible, if you take sales from decades ago! music matter i think from Pure and simple a catchy pure pop song from Hearsay (which is mainly a UK chart success) that sold an impressive 550,000 copies in a week or the alt manic street preachers a song you dont hear everyday If You Tolerate This Your Children Will Be Next sold 148,000 in 7 days. charts has really changed now due to streaming, keep music alive buy and pay for your track i say than always free spins on company low legal subscription.
Rick Sjoeblom
Dance Monkey is an utter piece of btw
Piran
‘Head & Heart’ will be climbing a few more places yet!
I think that’ll finish the year in the Top 10, maybe even the Top 5. :)
Rob Parkinson
Yeah its still performing well, I think top 5 easy unless we get another huge monster track before then but not much of the year left now
new acc - disqus.com/afrog69
I reckon it will even if we do get a huge monster track. Top 10 should be an easy Target seen as its still top 3 (in the non ACR chart) and, if a monster track hits in late October, it will still have to compete with the weeks Head & Heart has/will have in the Chart.
Piran
It might've dropped out of the Top 10 in the latest chart, but I don't think it'll fall very fast despite being placed on ACR. :)
new acc - disqus.com/afrog69
The list is updated! I am really upset Dance Monkey has knocked Roses out the top 2, but not surprised. Good to see Doja Cat in the top 10, and would love to see Head & Heart climb drastically up at least 10 places into the top 5 by the end of the year. really good list, some great EDM bangers there, hoping Flowers can cling on at #32 and Looking For Me can make an appearance soon :)
my favourite songs on the list (by songs that have appeared in my personal chart):

And Blinding Lights, Don't Start Now, and Dance Monkey all were hits in 2019 too!
Jesus Noel
Pienso que faltan las canciones latinas por ejemplo China que fue una de las más escuchadas y también hay canciones del 2019 aquí (por eso use de ejemplo a China) // I think that the Latin music is absent in this list for example China it is one of the most lessened song of the year and there are songs from 2019 here (that is why I used for example China)

I feel like theses songs are good but i think BTS needs to be up there who agrees

Aidan
Juice WRLD will be top
blobfishy
So are all these songs likely to make the Year End Top 100?
🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜
Life Is Good is the best song this year, it needs to hold up in the top 20 at least! :D
João Paulo Sena Siqueira
Why there's not any non-english native-speaking in the charts? I mean like chinese or indians
new acc - disqus.com/afrog69
Not had many in the top 100 this year, or any year for that matter.

Arda
Wtf where is Pop Smoke
W💫💫
new acc - disqus.com/afrog69
Pop Smoke only made it to no 31 w 'Dior' and had just over 10 weeks in the top 100, some of these songs have been in the top 20 since the start of the year! Pop Smoke will probably make it into the US End of year top 40, but unless he goes top 10 it's very unlikely.
⁉️
His album just came out. Hope that gets him here by the year end.
CHRITSTIAN FLORES
You are wrong. Good as was released in 2017 so how is it in the top 40 songs of 2020? The box should be number one because it was released in 2020. unlike most of these songs. I dont know where you get your research or how you are on this but you are 100% wrong. More then 75% of these songs where released not in 2020. Lemme make my unbiased top ten in 2020 released list.
1.The box,Roddy Ricch
2.Life is good,Future ft Drake
4.Godzilla,Eminem
4.Say So, Doja Cat
5.No time to die,billie eilish
6.Intentions,Justin Bieber ft Quavo
7.Toosie slide
8.Rockstar,Dababy ft Roddy Ricch
9.The Scotts,Travis scott and kid cudi
10.High Fashion,Roddy Ricch ft Mustard.
I pay attention to charts and peak while you Put whatever cringe song was ok in 2019. You didnt put many rap songs at all. And dont you realize that the box was at number one for more then 10 weeks in a row? And you put a song Blinding lights that was released in FRICKIN 2019. I look at billboard. What do you look at? your kids intrests? This is professional writing in a blog. Not some place where you let ur kids decide. Also sucsess from songs has nothing to do with tik tok. It comes from how good the song is. Now the album 10.
1.After hours,The Weeknd
2.Please Excuse Me for being Antisocial, Roddy Ricch
3.Eternal Atake,Lil Uzi Vert
4.Music to be Murdered By, Eminem
5.Blame it on Baby, Dababy
6.My turn, Lil Baby
7.Artist 2.0, A boogie wit da hoodie.
8.What you see is what u get, Luke Combs
9.Fine line, Harry Styles
10.Dark lane demo tapes,Drake,
Note: Both of the lists where made in May,15,2020 at 3:24 Pm
Feel Free to Make suggestions.

Songs carry over between years. People don't stop listening to a song just because it's a new year. Don't Start Now has been in the top 40 since November so it will likely be in the top 10 of 2020. This list is based off sales and streams based from January 1st to December 31st, so in reality any song can make the year end list. In 1990 the number 1 song of that year was from 1965
Geoffrey Etoru
The box was released in 2019 smh
🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜
Man, this made my head hurt.
So regarding your first point, literally any song can make an end-of-year chart based on combined sales, no matter what year it’s from. It happens on the albums list as well. So in short, they’re not wrong.
Another thing you’re getting wrong is this is a website for the UK charts, not the Billboard Hot 100. I mean, I follow both, so I do know The Box was number 1 for 11 weeks in America, so it’ll definitely top the Billboard year-end list for sure (it did well here too, peaking at #2), but Blinding Lights has done just as well here. This list is also nothing to do with kids interests either - it depends on how well a song has done in the UK.
Piran
'Blinding Lights' is probably ending the year at #1 too! :D
Brandon Mwinga
mid chart updated I'm happy to see Blinding Lights leading with Don't Start Now #4
#10 The Box
#22 Intentions
25 No Time To Die
#26 Better Off without you (she was helped by downloads than streaming
#36 My Oh My Ft Da Baby
#40 Falling
Piran
I like a lot of these, but I'm most impressed by 'My Oh My' being in the Top 40 for the year despite not even getting a Top 10 peak on the weekly charts.
You know how much I love Camila though, haha! ;)
Brandon Mwinga
I know you are obsessed with her not loving but I am happy I was even checking on my history it's among top 40 most played since January it has been slowly growing on me (My Oh My Ft Da Baby ). I will check your leader board 2020 what is your biggest song of #2020 so far
Brandon Mwinga
The way I'm so obesseed with UK Official more than US Billboard it's like I'm from UK haha! !!
My brother even mocks me that I must come there because I love EDM pop haha
Piran
Haha, I'm glad you like the UK's music taste a lot! :D
Piran
It's so close between 'Blinding Lights' & 'Body Back' at the moment, but I think the former is going to take it at the end of the year. 'Say So' is #3! :D
Brandon Mwinga
I'm glad to see Say so & Blinding Lights myself she's (Say So) in top 10!
Here's the best songs of #2020 so far
1.Dua Lipa Don't Start Now
2.Justin Bieber Intentions ft Quavo
3.The Weeknd Blinding Lights
4.Harry Styles Adore You
5.Becky Hill Better Off Without You
6.Khalid Ft Disclosure Know Your Worth

Brandon Mwinga
Ariana grande is occupying the top 2
Also The Weeknd two tracks in the top 10.
Doja Cat Say So is still the most played song across the country
🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜
Dance Monkey will end the year in the runner up position too! :P
Piran
Much to Mateusz's annoyance, haha! :P
🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜
At least a song he likes will be number 1... :P
Piran
In other words, they're fairly good! :D
Piran
Haha, yeah, which is also a song I love! ;)
Marcothedonjuan
Thanks Brandon, that is very interesting! Songs I adore in the top! :) But now I see this is 3 months ago....lol. But this article says October 1st, 2020....lol.
Marcothedonjuan
Yes, indeed! haha :)
Piran
How are you doing anyway? :)
Marcothedonjuan
I'm doing good, hope you are feeling better than last week. :)
Piran
I'm actually doing okay thanks! I'm busy & tired, but that's certainly better than being depressed, haha. :)
Lane Fair
Dont Start Now has been in the top ten for like 21 weeks so far. It's a beast. And will be bigger than all these as far as longevity is concerned.

I definitely can see blinding lights and dance monkey being in the top 5 come the end of the year!
The fact that gangsta is in the top 40 shows how little challenges there have been to the top 20 in the chart this year so far!
Loving lose control at 21 aswell!
BleeUK
they say Blinding lights has done 698,000 chart sale, but that mainly by fake copies compressed with frequent Streaming points with 75 million plays, how many has the pure sales taking us with just physical and downloads i'm saying less than 200K easy make sense.
