It’s the last year of the decade, and the summer of 2019 brought some new faces to the Hot 100 songs of the summer. Let’s dive in.
It was her first hit on the Billboard Hot 100, and it’s actually a single from two years earlier. Coming in at No. 5 on the Hot 100 summer songs is Lizzo’s “Truth Hurts.”
The next song features a collaboration with two of the world’s biggest pop stars: King of collabs Justin Bieber teamed up with British singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran for their hit “I Don’t Care,” which comes in at No. 4.
Our third biggest song of the summer is an electronic R&B hit by Khalid. His huge single “Talk” comes in next.
The song that had us all feeling powerful against the “Bad Guy” in our life … Billie Eilish makes it to the No. 2 spot with her massive hit “Bad Guy.”
Our top song of the summer in 2019 was important for a few reasons: It shot Lil Nas X into the spotlight and became the longest-running No. 1 Hot 100 song in history. Collaborating with country star Billy Ray Cyrus, “Old Town Road” comes in at No. 1.
Next week, we enter a brand new decade with 2020’s top songs of the summer!
