Sanremo 2026: the most streamed songs across platforms, from Spotify to Apple, from Amazon to Shazam

28-02-2026

“Per sempre sì” by Sal Da Vinci, “Male necessario” by Fedez and Marco Masini, and “Ossessione” by Samurai Jay are the Sanremo Festival tracks currently dominating streaming platforms overall in the days following the event. The trend is outlined by data released by the leading digital services, which capture a chart in rapid flux.

Spotify

According to Spotify, top of the listening charts is “Ossessione” by Samurai Jay, followed by “Tu mi piaci tanto” by Sayf and “Male necessario” by Fedez and Marco Masini. Among the competing artists who posted the most significant percentage gains are Sal Da Vinci with “Per sempre sì” (+31.8%, up six spots), Samurai Jay (+19.8%), Sayf (+16.2%), Luchè with “Labirinto” (+11.1%) and J-Ax with “Italy starter pack” (+10.5%).

Amazon Music

Amazon Music also puts Sal Da Vinci on the top step of the podium, followed by the Fedez-Masini duo and by Samurai Jay. Rounding out the top positions are “Che fastidio!” by Ditonellapiaga, “Magica Favola” by Arisa and “Stupida Sfortuna” by Fulminacci. Next in line are “I romantici” by Tommaso Paradiso, Sayf, Luchè and “Qui con me” by Serena Brancale.

For Apple Music, the five most streamed tracks are, in order, “Ossessione” by Samurai Jay, “Tu mi piaci tanto” by Sayf, “Che fastidio!” by Ditonellapiaga, “Labirinto” by Luchè and “Male necessario” by Fedez & Marco Masini.

Shazam

On the music-recognition app Shazam, the five most searched Festival tracks turn out to be those by Sayf, Ditonellapiaga, Samurai Jay, Sal Da Vinci and Fulminacci.

Social media

On the social media front, TikTok confirms strong engagement from younger audiences. During cover night, more than 42,000 videos were posted with the official hashtag #Sanremo2026, and over 58,000 pieces of content featured the competing songs. The five tracks most used for creating videos are “Per sempre sì” by Sal Da Vinci (over 19,000 videos), “Labirinto” by Luchè, “Ossessione” by Samurai Jay, “Tu mi piaci tanto” by Sayf and “I romantici” by Tommaso Paradiso. The profiles that saw the sharpest follower growth are @ditonellapiaga (+40%), @sayfmaet (+23%) and @arisamusica (+15%).

Finally, as part of the Future Talks at Wmf – We Make Future, a jury made up of ten themed artificial intelligences named Sayf the winner with “Tu mi piaci tanto”, ahead of Nayt with “Prima” and Ermal Meta with “Stella stellina”.

Declining numbers

There's also data describing the Festival's downturn in terms of streaming performance. For the first time in the last five years, no competing song surpassed one million streams on Spotify Italy the day after its debut. A negative record that stands out even more when compared with the most recent editions. The analysis looks at official figures published by Spotify in its Charts, comparing Wednesday, February 25th - the first full day of streaming after the opening night - with the corresponding Wednesdays of 2025, 2024, 2023 and 2022. The February 25th, 2026 ranking paints a clear picture. At the top is "Male Necessario" by Fedez and Marco Masini, which stalls at 992,370 streams. It's followed by "Tu mi piaci tanto" by Sayf (933,598), "Prima che" by nayt (879,603) and "Che fastidio!" by Ditonellapiaga (862,826).

These are substantial figures in absolute terms, but not enough to cross the one-million threshold, which in previous seasons had represented the minimum benchmark for identifying the Festival's hits on the first full day of listening.
