Eurovision has had another busy week of entry reveals. Our Eurovision 2019 Spotify playlist is filling up fast, as most of the competing songs are now available for listening. In our latest weekly update, Sweden comes in as the highest debuting entry.
The streaming figures on Spotify give us an impression of what fans have on replay. While there are a few changes within the top ten this week, Italy’s Mahmood remains in the lead.
Today’s update includes nine new entries. Unfortunately, Ukraine is no longer on the list following the national broadcaster’s withdrawal. Most of the competing songs are already available for streaming (and you can listen via our playlist linked right here).

The table above shows the current number of streams for each song as of today, Sunday 3 March. While nineteen songs are currently available on the platform, the entries from Lithuania, Montenegro, Georgia, Serbia, Austria, Belarus, Ireland and Azerbaijan haven’t been released to the platform yet. Besides, North Macedonia and Russia aren’t included in this week’s ranking as their songs have just been released on the platform today and haven’t had a full day of tracking yet.
Italy remains in the lead — and by some distance. The track has accumulated more than 1.5 million daily streams in Italy alone and is now close to 30 million plays. France and Spain round out the top three.
New entries join the ranking
New to the top ten is Sweden’s John Lundvik. “Too Late For Love” comes in at four and is catching up fast. Norway climbs from seventh to fifth following an appearance on the Spotify global viral charts where they hit #2 — does this suggest global appeal for them?
Also new to the top ten is the Netherlands. Duncan’s entry “Arcade” comes in at number eight. Moreover, Cyprus (16), Switzerland (21), Greece (24), San Marino (25), Poland (26), Albania (27) and the United Kingdom (28). The latter two are finally available for streaming after a rather long wait.
In the weeks leading up to Eurovision in Tel Aviv, we’ll be tracking the entries on Spotify and giving you an overview of which songs have made the biggest gains over the past seven days. It’s obviously not a perfect science, as you can stream artists from your home country. But it’s a fun barometer to look at anyway.
What do you think about the current Spotify stats? Do they indicate a possible win for Italy? Let us know in our comments below!
Mahmood 🙂
Charts as this is useless, because the population of different countries vary widely
Population in Italy = 59 200 0000
Population in Norway = 5 400 000
Population in Danmark = 5 700 000
Some countrys Spotify is big, in some countrys it is little and even in some it does’nt exist.
I tryed to post this comment yesterday, but for some reason it was not accepted by wiwibloggs….so I try again today.
Just over 10,000 streams for UK song….I know its not very good, but this is shocking.If that was to translate to votes, then he may as well stay at home.
It’s only been out for a couple days calm down bruh
Sweden for the first time in 2 years sent a good artist who performs his music with the soul and you hate him. ashamed for you all
Italie est la meilleure chanson avec la Russie pour cette année
Italy is the Glenn Close of Eurovision: Always respected, liked, admired and getting acclaim but never to actually receive anything
To be honest, I don’t get the love for Italy. They are so overrated every year by the fans.
Some are great, like 2017 and 2012. Some like 2015 and 2018 were just decent.
But on general yes. If people say that Sweden and Australia are overeated then Italy is just as overrateddby the fans and voters
Not so sure how telling something like this is given that Spotify is not as popular in some countries as it is in Scandinavia and Western Europe. Still, this shows how popular the winners are in a particular country. It would be good to compare it to each countries last year winner. Has Roi had more streams as Merci as the same point last year? John vs Benjamin?
Oh John is definitively more screamed than Benjamin. Benjamin didn’t even have the most screamed MF song last year, Felix had it.
Agree…there are many good songs this year and not a Clear winner, that’s great. Love from Norway
I m really rooting for Rome 2020. Soldi has worldwide hit potential.
We didn’t get the ESC version of Soldi, did we?
Not yet.
I don’t know. Mahmood’s song is the winner of the Sanremo-Festival which has got a certain importance in Italy. Whoever wins this festival (not always of course) has got in general a lot of success in Italy. This explains partly why he is 1st on this list. I suppose a lot of young people like it (and me too although I am 42-;))). You can not really compare it with the other “national” songs… just imagine, a lot of people in Italy don’t even know what Eurovision is and that Mahmood will participate. He has success first of all in… Read more »
Both boring as Hell (wait, that domain belongs to Iceland… These are just BORING)
The only two truly boring songs this year are from the Netherlands and Israel. And the spotify list is what people really want to listen to. Streaming songs is no lie, no politics, no bs.
Only one winner Sweden , come on John you London boy 12 points from the United Kingdom.
Go Sweden! Haters gonna hate.
And winners always have haters
mahmood has surpassed 500,000 equivalent sales (75 million streams also counting yt n other services + ~30k downloads), his POWER
What‘s up with Pænda – Limits? Revamp incoming? Why is it taken down?
It obviously needs one though.
I checked and it hasn’t been taken down or anything, luckily it’s still there (I’m from Poland) 😉 the only song that’s not available for now here is Germany (lilly among clouds’ song isn’t on as well unfortunately).
Mmmmm very strange all that. I wonder if Spotify promotes songs
They do promote songs if you pay them
So obviously Spotify is not an accurate way to see who is popular
How is that possible Sweden Spain and France are top ten on spotify when they are SO unpopular?
Anyone knows if Spotify sponsors songs or artists?
It’s because Spotify is not limited to the tiny universe of Eurovision hardcore fans.
Because those are three big music markets. Also, many people like Sweden and Spain in the fandom.
Because the Sweden hate is an extremely specific thing to this very small, toxic eurovision community. Look beyond the comments on wiwibloggs and at the comments on YouTube and such and you’ll see how appreciated John’s song actually is.
Because believe it or not, the world is bigger than this site. Just look at Youtube to see the response.
Also, Sweden has been hated on here since 2011, every song has been unpopular. Even Loreen was unpopular.
Bilal is very popular in France (as he’s a well know Youtuber), and that makes Roi one of the first Eurovision entry the French youth is really supporting. That’s why he has so much Spotify streams.
Because the world is bigger than this site, you know. Just look at Youtube to see the response.
And Sweden has been hated on here since 2011, every song has been unpopular. Even Loreen was unpopular.
What do you mean unpopular? Open your eyes dear. There is a life outside this bubble.
The world is bigger than this site, you know . Just go to Youtube to see the responses.
Also Sweden has been hated on here since 2011, every song has been unpopular. Even Loreen was unpopular.
Same goes for France.
Let’s not not forget that Spotify is a Swedish company and Swedish people usually shop local. I can imagine 99% of Swedish people have Spotify.
It’s not a bad song. But I don’t think it will finish top 5. I predict 8-15 in the final.
99% of people have Spotify.
It’s more about Melfest being an actual thing in Sweden (i.e. people actually listen to their eurovision entry).
Sweden is the only one that has an unique song of those mentioned.
Shocking opinion, since youre Swedish. Our entry is nothing special
Its not an opinion. Simply facts
Unique, really!? I think that’s not the word you’re looking for.
it might as well be a john legend cover but go off
So much jealousy. Love it
It’s not unique in any way. But together with the performance it’s among the best this year. John and his choir make it a contender.
The inevitable sadness when you see Maruv is still in the playlist…
Well maybe you wil be sad for Icelad cause their participation is in the danger zone
I cant believe blanche predicted hatari’s possible disqualification
LOL LOL LOL
Italy, France, Sweden, Spain Top Ten on Spotify??? If that’s true I’m sorry for your ears
MY GOD I cannot imagine myself listening to these 4 songs all the time on Spotify
Sweden is the worst this year (yes even worst than Montenegro)
And what happened to Gabbani and Il Volo will happen again to Mamood, just saying 🙂
Il Volo won televoting in a landslide 🙂
I do! Italy, Netherlands, Spain and Sweden are my top 4. Thanks for the respect baby!
55 ups already, who’s trolling?
You do know Spotify is not avaliable in many countries? So this ranking can’t tell us much about how well certain song will be received by the general European audience.
It’s like the odds, we follow their opinion even though betting for TV shows is not legal in some countries such as Spain. Weird but true.
But this is mainly in Italy or Sweden.
In Eastern Europe people don’t listen music on Spotify.
YouTube is much more popular
So Germans voted for a song that they are not even interested in listening to
Pretty much.
