What’s the Top Summer Song? YouTube Views Reveal It’s Not Karol G

Share:

How we love summer with its parties, sunsets, beach or pool days, and mountain hikes. No matter how we spend our vacations, one thing we can’t do without is music. Our favorite songs are there for the fun times, like road trips with friends, and quieter moments, like listening to a ballad on the beach or reading by the pool.

While many songs aim to be the hit of the summer, a few stand out. This 2024 season, you’ve likely heard Karol G’s ‘Si Antes Te Hubiera Conocido,’ or joined the TikTok trend with Maria Becerra, Trueno and Big One’s ‘Cuando Te Vi.’ These and others could easily be the song of the summer, but which one has the most views on YouTube? Let’s find out which track takes the top spot.

5. ‘ADIVINO’ – Myke Towers, Bad Bunny

The Puerto Rican artists dropped their third collaboration on April 24th. Following ‘Estamos Arriba’ in 2019 and ‘Puesto Pa’ Guerrial’ in 2020 in 2020, they’re back with ‘ADIVINO’. This track dives into the bittersweet emotions of breakups, capturing that nostalgic feeling when things start to fall apart. There’s also a possible nod to Kendall Jenner, Bad Bunny’s ex. The song has already racked up 24,922,968 views.

4. ‘Cuando Te Vi’ – Maria Becerra, Trueno, and Big One

‘Cuando Te Vi,’ featuring Maria Becerra, Trueno, and Big One, is a perfect summer love song with 44,436,336 views.

3. ‘SANTA’ – Rvssian, Rauw Alejandro, and Ayra Starr

The catchy and seductive track ‘SANTA’ went viral and draws strong comparisons to Rauw‘s collaboration with Chris Brown, ‘Nostálgico,’ which isn’t surprising since both songs share the same producer, Rvssian. ‘SANTA’ perfectly captures the vibe the Puerto Rican aims for, blending afrobeat, reggaetón, and dancehall.

The title, which means ‘saint’ in Spanish, refers to the woman he sings about, elevating her to a divine status with lyrics like, “Mami, it’s that you enchant me. I pray to you, my saint.” The song has garnered 93,357,095 views.

2. ‘Si Antes Te Hubiera Conocido’ – Karol G

The song delves into unrequited love slipping away due to fate. In the music video, La Bichota makes it evident that she can host a lively beach party, lifting the spirits of those experiencing love troubles in this fresh summer season.

Filmed in the Dominican Republic, the video portrays a lively karaoke event at a seaside location that evolves into a massive party. It features people from various backgrounds enjoying life and reflecting the joyful and resilient spirit typical of Latino culture.  La Bichota’s merengue hit ‘Si Antes Te Hubiera Conocido’ has become a summer anthem with 96,857,562 views.

1. ‘Espresso’ – Sabrina Carpenter

Unsurprisingly, topping the list, Sabrina Carpenter’s ‘Espresso’ is a global hit with 121,636,606 views.
