Dance music dominates Shazam’s 50 most ‘Shazamed’ songs of the decade

Shazam has released a list that should get everyone’s attention and take them down memory lane. The music discovery platform has released the top 50 most sought-after summer songs of the past decade. Shazam partnered with UK radio station, Kiss FM, to procure and analyze data to identify the songs frequently discovered through the app during the summer months. While the list lends itself to a lot of pop and hip-hop, electronic music fares glaringly well, claiming seven of the Top 10 spots.

Clocking in as the most “Shazamed” song of the decade, Major Lazer, MØ, and DJ Snake‘s “Lean On” takes the throne. The track, which recently turned five, also stakes its claim as the most-viewed electronic music video. Calvin Harris appears on the list thrice, with his Rihanna collaboration, “This Is What You Came For,” his and Dua Lipa‘s “One Kiss,” and “Feels” with Pharrell Williams, Katy Perry, and Big Sean. Also making the list was Avicii‘s “Wake Me Up,” Daft Punk and Pharrell’s “Get Lucky,” and Skrillex, Diplo, and Justin Bieber‘s “Where Are Ü Now,” and ZHU’d “Faded.”
