There are no changes within this week’s top five. France’s Bilal Hassani and Switzerland’s Luca Hänni switch places following Bilal’s album release. Malta is up one spot while Greece’s Katerine Duska re-enters this week’s top ten.
Considerable gains this week come from Belgium’s Eliot, who’s back in the top fifteen. Unfortunately, Hungary and Estonia lose some of their momentum as they decrease in weekly streams. But it’s never too late for that to change!

The table above shows the current number of streams for each song as of Sunday 28 April. Notably, a few earlier versions were replaced with Eurovision edits and thus we’re combining the total count with the earlier streams counted so far.
Italy remains in the lead — and by some distance. Rounding out the top five are Sweden, the Netherlands, France and Spain. Moreover, Denmark’s Leonora reappears in the top ten.
Further down the list, Malta’s Michela keeps moving upwards. “Chameleon” has entered the top 30 for the first time this week, while Azerbaijan also goes up by two spots.
Eurovision 2019 Spotify tracking
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!
And twelve points goes to… https://youtu.be/uK4gRsxffxQ
with all this massive paid promotion for malta it makes sense to be on top 10….
Lol. Firstly, promotion is done in several ways – be it pre-party tours, promotion via YouTube, releasing other singles before Eurovision to get people talking. It’s all part of the game and I see no harm! Malta opted to skip pre-parties and promote in a different manner… I think it’s a clever decision.
Secondly, nobody forces anyone to hear any particular song on Spotify. It’s not like people are having pop-ups to hear Chameleon on Spotify! I, for one am not being forced and hear it all the time.
And Duncheat top 3 makes sense too with free overhype promotion.
#SERGEY4WIN
Numbers quite small for UK, Germany and Poland.
Well… this isn’t close.
Yes I know the arguments: streams from their own country, Italy has a bigger pop market reach, Spotify isn’t available everywhere blah etc etc.
It’s still not close. 🙂
Is your gut telling you that Italy is going to win, Purple?
That is spooky. I was telling my cousin this very thing earlier today. 🙂
😉
No article about announcement of jury members? Wiwibloggs might be the only ESC source NOT writing about it.
You’re an entire day late dude! That article got published yesterday itself
Yeah, that’s right. It was buried so deep I didn’t see it. Sorry! 😀
Waiting for THAT person to come and bitch about spotify
Not me, I hope?
I really doubt they mean you — but even if they do, why hope that they don’t?
If only through a virtual platform, you seem kind, intelligent, witty, and sincere. At the same time, no one’s ever going to be universally popular.
I really doubt they mean you, Purple. Even if they do, no one’s ever going to be universally popular.
If only through a virtual platform, I’d say you come across as kind, intelligent, witty, and compassionate.
Thank you. You too. Date? 😀
Ha ^_^
“It all started on a Eurovision fan blog…”
It’s a shame wiwi doesn’t have a PM feature 🙂
‘b-but they don’t have spotify in south ossetia!!!1!1’
India didn’t have an official Spotify launch till 2 months back , just saying
Given that Malta’s song has been on Spotify for only 3 weeks compared to the other songs and was one of the last to feature on Spotify, it’s doing pretty damn well in the charts. Rooting for Malta!!
Exactly, plus keep in mind Malta’s population is much smaller than other countries
Well , so I think you had the wrong numbers with Hungary last time then !
Also Estonia’s number seems to be wrong cause the other website has Estonia in the Top 10 this week which seems more plausible than it suddenly losing 20 spots and 50,000 streams
I’ve been tracking daily for Estonia – the loss in weekly streams does definitely exist. Presumably been dropped/pushed down on Spotify playlists. Hungary could be for the same reason however I suspect that it has to do with the placement on the official Eurovision playlist!
Well could you check again cause I’m pretty certain this figure isn’t correct, especially Estonia’s. Cause it’s streams in Estonia alone is more than the number quoted here.
Hungary like I said had been mistakenly elevated last week , which I had commented upon too!!
*Sweden alone
All the numbers were taken on Spotify as of every Sunday 11AM. If there’s actually any issues with regard to the streams that’s due to the Spotify counter!
Maybe .
Adding the weeks in on the overall total charts would help to figure out why some songs are that high or that low.
ani lorak would have been proud hahah
cyprus and malta are doing AMAZING numbers for such small countries. italy is reachin 50 million by the grand final whew
this Florian Rahn guy is becoming increasingly pertinent to wiwibloggs, that’s nice
And he is cute
SO cute
He is the spitting image of Henrik from Timtales
I absolutely LOVE these articles. Keep it up, Florian!
