Most Streamed Song in Every Country on Spotify
What is the most streamed song in each country on Spotify? It depends entirely on where you are. In our October 29, 2026 snapshot of national charts, the answer is "No Role Modelz" by J. Cole in the US (about 1.35 billion streams inside the country), "Mr. Brightside" by The Killers in both the UK and Australia, "La vie qu'on mène" by Ninho in France, "Me Rehúso" by Danny Ocean in Mexico and a song from a Hindi film in India. Here are all 15 countries, plus what the differences say about how the world listens.
How we measured it
These are not worldwide totals. The figures come from the national weekly top 200 charts collected on kworb.net (ISO week 44 of 2026) and add up the streams inside the country over the weeks a song appeared in that top 200. Countries where Spotify counts fewer streams show smaller numbers, so you can compare the order within a country but not the size of the numbers between two countries. Streambinder is independent and not affiliated with Spotify.

What the differences say
- The UK and Australia share a taste. "Mr. Brightside" is number one in both, and "Riptide" and "Someone You Loved" also sit in both top fives. Guitar-driven pop that has been around for years keeps winning in both markets.
- Local music rules most charts. The number one is by a local act in France, Germany, Italy, Brazil, Portugal, Sweden, Japan, India and South Korea. The English-speaking markets lean on international guitar-pop and hip-hop: Post Malone's "Sunflower" is second in the US and first in Canada. Mexico is led by a Spanish-language song by Danny Ocean, with a J Balvin track right behind.
- Spanish-language music travels. "Me Rehúso" tops Mexico and is fourth in Spain, and Bizarrap's session with Quevedo is second in Spain and third in Italy. Bad Bunny is the top artist in both Spain and Mexico. See our guide to the most streamed Latin artists for more.
- Brazil loves live recordings. The three most streamed songs there are "Ao Vivo" (live) versions by the same group.
- Sweden streams lullabies. Two of the top four are lullabies for children, "Babblarnas vaggvisa" and "Djurens vaggvisa" by Humlan Djojj.
- India runs on film music. The titles of the top two credit the films "Tamasha" and "Kabir Singh", and composer Pritam leads the artist ranking inside the country with about 7.40 billion streams.
Because these totals build up week after week, the order moves slowly but it does move. To follow the live picture, see the most streamed songs in the US, the UK, Australia and India. For the all-time worldwide view, our guide to the most streamed songs ever and the billion streams club explain how the global numbers differ.
How this works in Streambinder
Streambinder has 15 country editions, one per market in the table, and each edition is built from what that country actually streams. Each edition has its own content and its own rarity thresholds, so the cards you pull reflect the music of your country. A card you own never loses its rarity, and the logic is explained in card rarity explained. You can open a free pack from your own country's edition: the game is free, runs in your browser, and uses coins that are only a game currency, never real money.
FAQ
What is the most streamed song in the US on Spotify? In our October 29, 2026 national snapshot, "No Role Modelz" by J. Cole, at about 1.35 billion streams in the US.
What is the most streamed song in the UK? "Mr. Brightside" by The Killers, at about 485 million streams inside the UK.
Are these the biggest songs in the world? No. They count streams inside each country over the weeks a song was in its weekly top 200, so they differ from worldwide totals.
Why are the numbers so low in Portugal or South Korea? Spotify counts fewer streams in those markets, so the numbers are smaller. Compare the order inside a country, not the size between countries.
