Spotify Sanremo, the most listened song is by Fedez-Masini, Patty Pravo outside the top 30

The Spotify rankings reveal that Fedez and Marco Masini's song 'Male necessario' is currently the most listened to track from the Sanremo festival, while Patty Pravo's entry has not made it to the top 30.

In the ongoing Sanremo music festival, Spotify plays a significant role in determining the popularity of the competing songs. As per the Spotify charts, Fedez and Marco Masini's collaboration 'Male necessario' is leading the pack, claiming the top spot with a strong listenership. Following them are Nayt's 'Prima che' at third and Sayf's 'Tu mi piaci tanto' in second place. Interestingly, a notable absence from the top 30 is the veteran artist Patty Pravo, who has made a mark in the festival but currently sits at the thirty-fifth position with her song 'Opera'.

Further analysis of the rankings shows that other emerging artists are surpassing some of the established names in this year's festival. For instance, Angelica Bove, one of the finalists from the New Proposals category, is represented at the thirtieth position with her track 'Mattone'. Meanwhile, recordings by younger talents like TonyPitony and Darkmoney also managed to secure places ahead of Pravo. This trend indicates a shifting dynamic in the Sanremo landscape, where long-established artists face stiff competition from newer entrants.

The competition extends beyond Spotify, with YouTube views also showing significant engagement with Fedez and Masini leading with nearly 929,000 views on the Rai channel. This data highlights the influence of streaming platforms on the music festival's outcome and suggests that behavior on these platforms could have considerable implications for the artists' careers beyond the festival itself.
