This May has been quite powerful, although it is true that many songs are still hanging on from April, a month in which we have had a lot of activity and a lot of premieres of great tracks.
That’s why we went to YouTube and did some research: what are the most listened to songs of May 2023? Some of them will surprise you, others not so much because they haven’t been the biggest hits for weeks.
The three most listened to songs on YouTube in May
Grupo Frontera x Bad Bunny: one x100th
Bad Bunny’s smash hit hit exploded at the end of April and now, in the middle of May, it has 11 million listens. This is the most listened to song since it debuted on YouTube and is on its way to being one of Bad Bunny’s biggest hits.
This song is composed together with the Mexican band Grupo Frontera, which is famous for making very rhythmic songs with a lot of instruments. They are modern mariachis, in short.
Chanel, Abraham Mateo: Clavaito
The big star of Eurovision 2022 has once again released a smash hit, this time together with singer Abraham Mateo, who was a star for children’s audiences more than five years ago.
Times change and you have to adapt. Clavaito has already had 1.1 million views in just 5 days on YouTube. It’s not going to be a hit, but it’s getting a lot of likes.
Jhayco, Quevedo: Mami Chula
You can’t live off a hit and Quevedo knows that. From the famous “Quédate” with Bizarrap, he now returns to YouTube with Jhayco to release the song Mami Chula. Yes, great name. Very original.
It was uploaded just five days ago and has 2.6 million plays, so we can say that it doubles the Chanel and Abraham song. It must be the name, it sounds better than Clavaito.
