A few songs this summer provide for summer feelings despite the corona pandemic. But which of these will be the summer hit 2020?
Which songs are the contenders for the summer hit 2020? If you prefer to stay at home because of the corona pandemic, this year you will still get the right soundtrack for the hot months. Because Spotify has again created a list that contains the potentially greatest hits of summer 2020. These five songs have what it takes to outperform all others.
From the TikTok Challenge to a big hit
It started in 2019 with a dance challenge on TikTok: The song "Laxed – Siren Beat" by the previously relatively unknown music producer Jawsh 685 quickly spread on the platform. Jason Derulo (30) also showed his dance moves and made the song even more famous. In 2020, the singer then backed his song "Savage Love" with the instrumental of "Laxed – Siren Beat" – and "Savage Love (Laxed – Siren Beat)" is now one of the contenders for the summer hit 2020. Has nearly 18 million views the music video already on YouTube.
Summer beats in the corona lockdown
On the radio he runs up and down: "Never Let Me Down" by the German producer duo VIZE and the British singer Tom Gregory (24) scores with summery beats and spreads a good mood. The music video probably hit the nerve in May when many people around the world were at home in the corona lockdown. Singer Tom Gregory filmed himself in his apartment in selfie mode.
What's summerier than watermelon?
Squeaky and sugar-sweet: This is how you could describe "Watermelon Sugar" by Harry Styles (26). The former One Direction member apparently knows exactly how to set the hot months to music and put them into the limelight. Because the music video also exudes a lot of good mood and – contrary to the corona restrictions – touches and tight group cuddles on the beach are the program here.
Holiday feeling with the Black Eyed Peas
The Black Eyed Peas not only released a new album this year, but also deliver a real summer hit candidate with catchy tunes with the single "MAMACITA". The group brought Latin megastar Ozuna (28) and Filipino singer J. Rey Soul on board for a lot of summer vibes. The success can already be seen: The song has been in the German charts for eleven weeks, the music video has over 131 million views on YouTube and the streaming numbers are also impressive.
Song from the 90s becomes a hit again
Producer Robin Schulz (33) is predestined to deliver the summer hit. After all, he has already taken care of several number one singles in the hot months of recent years and landed the summer hit 2014 with "Prayer in C". In 2020 the German has another hit song in the pipeline: With "Alane" he has it eponymous 90s hit by Wes (56) and transformed it into a fresh and summery version.
