Pop sensation Alex Warren’s hit song “Ordinary” has taken the music industry by storm, claiming the top spot on Billboard’s 2025 Songs of the Summer chart for a staggering 14 weeks. With an additional 10 weeks on the Hot 100 chart, this marks a significant milestone in Warren’s career as it is his first chart-topping song. The chart itself ranks songs based on a combination of streaming numbers, radio airplay, and sales data, specifically focusing on the period between Memorial Day and Labor Day, excluding any titles that had appeared the previous year.
Meanwhile, country music star Morgan Wallen also made waves by securing not one, not two, but three spots on the Songs of the Summer chart with hits from his album “I’m the Problem.” Tracks like “What I Want,” featuring Tate McRae, “Just in Case,” and “I’m the Problem,” all found their place in the top ranks, making Wallen the first artist to achieve such a feat of having three songs within the Top 5 on a single Songs of the Summer chart.
Analyzing the performance of the top songs, it’s evident that “Ordinary” stood out for its dominance in radio airplay and download numbers, solidifying its position as the chart-topper. On the other hand, Wallen’s “What I Want” led in overall streams, showcasing the diverse and widespread appeal of his music across different platforms.
Rounding out the rest of the Songs of the Summer Top 10 were Kendrick Lamar and SZA’s “Luther” at No. 5, Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars’ collaboration “Die With a Smile” at No. 6, “Golden” by HUNTR/X at No. 7, Chappell Roan’s “Pink Pony Club” at No. 8, Sabrina Carpenter’s “Manchild” at No. 9, and Ravyn Lenae’s “Love Me Not” at No. 10.
The music industry continues to evolve, with new artists like Alex Warren and established names like Morgan Wallen making their mark on the charts and captivating audiences worldwide. As we head into the next chapter of music history, it will be exciting to see what new talents emerge and which songs will define the sound of future summers.
