Apple Music shared its year-end global charts for 2025, revealing the two songs that dominated streaming around the world.
This year’s biggest songs were Rosé and Bruno Mars‘ “APT.” along with Kendrick Lamar and SZA‘s “Luther.”
“APT.” claimed the Number One spot on multiple Apple Music charts, including Top Songs of 2025: Global, Top 100: Shazam, Top 100: Global Radio, and Top 100: Lyrics.
Released in October 2024, the song has become a massive hit for both artists and is up for both Song and Record of the Year at the 2026 Grammy Awards.
“Luther” sits at Number Two on the Top Songs of 2025: Global chart, having gotten a huge spike after the pair performed the track at the Super Bowl earlier this year.
Lamar has five songs in the Top 25, the most of any artist on the chart, including his May 2024 Drake diss “Not Like Us.” Meanwhile, SZA has three in the Top 25, the second-most of any artist.
Rounding out the top five of the Top Songs of 2025: Global charts have more songs from 2024. Mars and Lady Gaga‘s “Die With a Smile,” released in August of last year, is the third most-streamed song. Lamar’s “Not Like Us” sits at Number Four while Billie Eilish’s “Birds of a Feather,” from May 2024, is the fifth most-streamed song.
