With the summer drawing to a close, Spotify crunched the numbers to find out which song ruled their global chart system for the summer of 2023. Topping the streaming platform’s list, with 367 million streams, is Eslabon Armado and Peso Pluma’s “Ella Baila Sola,” the first regional Mexican song to have accomplished a long list of firsts for the latest booming Latin genre.
The song is composed by rising stars, 24-year-old Peso Pluma, and the foursome Eslabon Armado, all of whom are also in their 20s. The team-up made history as the first regional Mexican song to crack the top 10 of Billboard’s all-genre songs chart and was also the first regional Mexican song to be performed on late-night television when Peso Pluma made his appearance on “The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon.”
“Ella Baila Sola’’ as the global song of the summer is a true testament to how Música Mexicana is dominating the international music scene, becoming one of the top growth-driving genres globally,” Antonio Vazquez, head of U.S. Latin editorial at Spotify, tells Variety. “Música Mexicana, in general, offers a rich cultural tapestry that touches upon tradition, emotion, and modernity, making it relatable and exciting for Latin music listeners and non-Spanish speakers alike. The strong appeal of this song reflects the power of Música Mexicana, proving that its moment in the sun is more than a trend.”

Spotify also observed the top songs in the U.S., where Morgan Wallen’s “Last Night” led the pack as the first-ever country song to claim the summit. Wallen is followed by “Ella Baila Sola” and Taylor Swift’s “Cruel Summer.”
Rachel Whitney, head of editorial for Nashville, commented: “It’s no surprise that ‘Last Night’ is the top song of the summer in the U.S. It has been inescapable since it first came out, and for good reason. It’s a hit that transcends the country genre, pulling elements of R&B, pop, and of course country, between the beat, the catchy hook, and the stripped-down guitar intro and Wallen’s signature southern drawl…”
