2025 Wrapped: Bad Bunny's Global Domination, UK's Unique Picks
3 Dec
Summary
- Bad Bunny led global streams with 19.8 billion, but missed UK's top 10.
- Taylor Swift was the most popular artist for UK listeners in 2025.
- Lady Gaga & Bruno Mars' 'Die With A Smile' was the world's biggest song.
The much-anticipated Spotify Wrapped 2025 has unveiled global listening trends, with Puerto Rican superstar Bad Bunny dominating the charts. He amassed over 19.8 billion streams worldwide, and his album "Debí Tirar Más Fotos" was also the year's biggest. This success sets the stage for his performance at next year's Super Bowl halftime show.
Despite Bad Bunny's international acclaim, UK listeners charted a different course. Taylor Swift emerged as the UK's most popular artist, while Alex Warren's "Ordinary" claimed the top track spot, a relatively new entry among enduring hits. This contrasts with global trends where Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars' duet "Die With A Smile" was the biggest song.
Streaming platforms like Apple Music and YouTube also showed varied preferences. YouTube saw a strong showing for K-Pop, with "K-Pop Demon Hunters" featuring prominently. These year-end summaries, like Spotify Wrapped, not only reflect listening habits but also influence them, encouraging users to curate their listening for more "impressive" results.
