Eurovision 2019 has now come and gone, but our Spotify playlist remains online for your aural pleasure. And in our latest weekly update, the Netherlands’ Duncan Laurence has achieved the most weekly streams for the very first time. He may not have won the televote, but that hasn’t stopped him from winning on this streaming service.

With the contest over, the streaming figures on Spotify give us an impression of what fans have on replay…and which songs will stand the test of time (or at least the summer).

With this week’s update, we’re also providing numbers regarding the change in streams compared to last week’s figure. Thus, you get a more detailed view of what’s changed.

As of Sunday 19 May, the Netherlands’ Duncan Laurence is now ahead of Italy’s Mahmood. Despite Mahmood still being far ahead in terms of overall streams, Duncan Laurence’s song “Arcade” logs up one of the biggest streaming weeks for any 2019 Eurovision song. Furthermore, Norway’s KEiiNO, Cyprus’ Tamta, Malta’s Michela go up within the top ten while Australia’s Kate Miller-Heidke is back in the top ten of the chart.

Considerable gains this week also come from the Czech Republic, Slovenia, San Marino and North Macedonia. Unfortunately, Georgia’s Oto Nemsadze is back in last position.

The table above shows the current number of streams for each song as of Sunday 19 May. 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. Also, they’re the first country to hit the mark of 50 million streams this year. Rounding out the top five are Sweden, the Netherlands, France and Spain. In addition, Norway, Switzerland, Cyprus, Estonia and Iceland also land in the top ten most streamed countries.

Further down the list, Malta’s Michela, Belarus’ ZENA and Ireland’s Sarah McTernan also climb up the ladder. In addition to that, Slovenia, Azerbaijan, Israel and Lithuania all increase this week as well. Serbia, Montenegro and Georgia round out the bottom three.

Stop complaining, get over it
If you don’t like the song, don’t listen to it. There are plenty people who will! And not only at funerals.

If you re asking why
1. Serhat did great with televote, the answer is..because he is great.
2. Denmark did well…because is non patronizing peace song.
3. North Macedonia…because all women can relate to this song “All the rules are made or you to lose”. Hello, all women have heard 100000 times that is more elegant, gracious, and feminine, to not say anything.

It’s normal that the week before the the final the big favourite is the most streamed on Spotify but I’m sure Mahmood will take the lead again soon, Soldi will be in a very few time an international success.. now Soldi is for example first position on iTunes in Austria Greece Cyprus Malta, second in Israel, 3 Luxembourg, 4 germany and Romania, high in Spotify and Apple music in many countries… and also the other amazing songs of mahmood will have an international success because he’s a complete and wonderful artist, one of the most interesting in the musical scene

I can’t say in words how much I love Serhat and Say Na NA Na. “All your dreams will go away, no matter what you do”. Please San Marino, send Serhat and Valentina. The boring jury will not care, but it will be a feast for fans.

Hm… both songs are low tempo, male singer with some beats. But I don’t really know what to listen for. The lyrics are not that similar, nor the melody. What makes you say it’s a copy?

Together from January to mid May, the Grand Final can sometimes feel bittersweet because it’s the awesome culmination of our celebration but also the end of it all. No wonder we all know what PED is.

Sending virtual hugs and love to all of us here, always such a friendly and funny group of devoted Eurovision fans 🙂

Huge Post Eurovision Depression. I love the class of 2019 the most. But I was shocked how illuminati Nana Banana and Madonna were. Even the stage that they wanted so much to show in wide shots. Can we go back to round stages?
Their desire to show the stage was not just pride “look how beautiful”, it was religious propaganda.

I would love to see Luxembourg back, maybe they will. Hopefully Netherlands success can spur them on. Maybe even San Marino’s (surprising) success will spur more micro states like Luxembourg, Andorra, Monaco etc to come back too.

I agree with all these comments! It would be great to see more countries come back and join the celebration. The EBU could encourage them by offering to increase the SF qualifiers to 11, with a GF of 28.

I think that most of countries will dont go to ESC next year after this voting, because this voting is good only for North countries. Croatia will not go for sure, Albania also and I hope Germany will not go after this shame. This is only party for north countries, it is impossible to little poor country like Macedonia win. Jury can vote for this country, but people vote for favourites and blogs make favourites ( they didnt talk about Macedonia or Albania singer at all before final). We read only abot Mahmood, Duncan, Mahmood ,Duncan and little about Bilal.

Italy (the runner up) is south of both Croatia and Germany. Consult a map, for crying out loud.

Who else is DYING for a KEiiNO/Alan Walker collaboration? Norwegian greatness! Since Alexandra has toured with Alan, and he has collaborated with Sami singers recently I think it’s destiny! Hope everyone is doing great and not struggling too much with PED (post eurovision depression) Sending love to all, see you next year!

Struggling if I’m honest 😀 maybe the EBU needs a superfinal between the top 5.
Or a best losers round between the NQs ….I need something Eurovision related to watch. Get just Assi to host it and I’ll be fine.

In other news, I have serious post-Eurovision depression. I actually think I will miss Assi Azar the most. He brightened up my tv with his infectious smile and attitude for those 3 glorious evenings.
It’s like there isn’t even anything on tv now worth watching haha!

My most streamed artist are::
Mahmood (spotify)
Chingiz (youtube, most of his stuff is not in spotify)
Tamta (here and there, but I do like her music in general)
Keiino (I’m working on a Sami inspired monster, it helps the rhythm)
