Alex Warren’s ‘Ordinary’ Is No. 1 on Billboard’s Songs of the Summer Chart for 2025
Alex Warren’s “Ordinary” reigns as the No. 1 title on Billboard’s Songs of the Summer chart for 2025. The song claims the title after topping the weekly survey all 14 weeks this season.
The 20-position Songs of the Summer running tally tracks the most popular titles based on cumulative performance on the weekly streaming-, airplay- and sales-based Billboard Hot 100 chart from Memorial Day through Labor Day (this year encompassing charts dated June 7 through Sept. 6; Titles that appeared on the 2024 Songs of the Summer chart or peaked on the Hot 100 during or before summer 2024 were ineligible to appear on this year’s Songs of the Summer ranking.)
Amid the start-to-finish win for “Ordinary” on Songs of the Summer, it ran up 10 weeks at No. 1 on the Hot 100, marking the singer-songwriter’s first leader on the list.
This year marks the fifth in a row that only one title monopolized No. 1 on the Songs of the Summer chart all season, following Post Malone’s “I Had Some Help,” featuring Morgan Wallen (2024); Wallen’s “Last Night” (2023); Harry Styles’ “As It Was” (2022); and BTS’ “Butter” (2021).
Following Wallen’s first-place finishes on Songs of the Summer the last two years, he takes the Nos. 2, 3 and 4 hits for 2025: “What I Want,” featuring Tate McRae, “Just in Case” and “I’m the Problem,” respectively. He is the first artist with three top five entries on a season-closing Songs of the Summer chart. All three songs are from his album I’m the Problem.
Notably, “What I Want” drew the most official U.S. streams in the summer tracking period: 298 million, according to Luminate. “Ordinary” led in radio airplay audience — 930 million — and download sales — 92,000.
Kendrick Lamar and SZA’s “Luther” lands the No. 5 spot on Songs of the Summer for 2025.
Rounding the Songs of the Summer top 10: Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars’ “Die With a Smile” (No. 6); current Hot 100 leader “Golden” by HUNTR/X: EJAE, Audrey Nuna and REI AMI, from Netflix’s summer smash film KPop Demon Hunters (No. 7); Chappell Roan’s “Pink Pony Club” (No. 8); Sabrina Carpenter’s “Manchild” (No. 9); and Ravyn Lenae’s “Love Me Not” (No. 10).
