Sanremo 2026: how the songs are doing on the sales charts, on Spotify, on YouTube and on radio

The Sanremo effect continues to be felt on the Italian charts, though the balance of power shifts depending on the platform. Sales, streaming, radio and YouTube all produce different hierarchies among the songs presented at the Festival.

The Fimi chart

On the Fimi chart, which combines physical sales and digital downloads, first place goes to “Male necessario” by Fedez and Marco Masini. Right behind them comes Ditonellapiaga with “Che fastidio!”, while third place goes to Sayf with “Tu mi piaci tanto”. Further down sits the winner of the competition, Sal Da Vinci: his “Per sempre sì” stalls at eleventh place, outside the top ten.

The streaming platforms

The picture changes on the streaming platforms. On Spotify Italy, the most-streamed track is “Ossessione” by Samurai Jay, close to 1.2 million streams a day. Next come “Tu mi piaci tanto” by Sayf, past the one-million mark, and “Per sempre sì” by Sal Da Vinci, which tops 840,000 streams. A similar picture emerges on Apple Music, where Samurai Jay and Sayf lead the ranking, with Da Vinci still among the top three.

The YouTube verdict

The clearest win for the Festival's champion, however, comes on YouTube. On the Trending Music Videos chart, the official video for “Per sempre sì” tops the list with more than 6.2 million views. Behind it come “Tu mi piaci tanto” by Sayf, at 2.7 million, and “Poesie clandestine”, close to 1.7 million views.

Radio airplay

Radio airplay also follows its own logic. According to EarOne's tracking of Sanremo songs, the most-played track is “Che fastidio!” by Ditonellapiaga. Rounding out the podium are “I romantici” by Tommaso Paradiso and “Male necessario” by Fedez and Masini, while “Per sempre sì” by Sal Da Vinci sits in fifth place.
