The trends of 2020
2020 is the year TikTok music went fully mainstream, with lockdown scrolling doing a lot of the work.
TikTok's own top ten that year was almost all hip-hop and pop built for a dance challenge.
The app also revived older songs, and Fleetwood Mac's "Dreams" is the clearest example after one skateboarding video.
Pitchfork's year-in-review called out the sped-up remix wave, which is how SAINt JHN's "Roses" charted again.
The UK side of the app had its own hits, including S1mba's "Rover" and Dua Lipa's "Don't Start Now."
This ranking uses TikTok's published 2020 top ten first, then the wider roundups of the year's biggest sounds.
