Spotify reveals 10 songs of the summer
NEW YORK -- If Spotify's predictions are correct, Justin Timberlake's "Can't Stop the Feeling" will be a summer song you can't stop singing. You can listen to the playlist on Spotify here.
The streaming music service revealed its picks Thursday for the songs likely to be unavoidable this season, including Ariana Grande's "Into You" and "One Dance" by Drake featuring Wizkid and Kyla.
Spotify used analysis from staff members and experts, along with streaming data, performance on its viral chart and social media buzz.
The list of 10 tracks likely to become hits over the next few months includes top artists like Fifth Harmony, Jason Derulo and Calvin Harris and upcoming acts like Desiigner. Country artist Keith Urban made the list with his track "Wasted Time."

1. "Into You," Ariana Grande
This dance song has already been streamed more than 20 million times. Ariana Grande could rule again, as she did in the summer of 2014 when her song "Problem" topped the charts.
2. "One Dance," Drake feat. Wizkid and Kyla
Drake is Spotify's most-streamed artist, and this song off of his new album, "Views," is already topping Spotify's charts.
3. "Can't Stop the Feeling," Justin Timberlake
Justin Timberlake's catchy tune is the first single off the soundtrack for Dreamworks Animations' upcoming animated film "Trolls."
4. "Work from Home," Fifth Harmony
"Work from Home" was released in February, so it's not exactly a summer tune, but who cares when the women of Fifth Harmony are having so much fun "working"?
5. "This is What You Came For," Calvin Harris feat. Rihanna
History has proven that Calvin Harris and Rihanna know how to make a hit, so it's no surprise "This is What You Came For" has already become extremely popular. Harris and Rihanna last collaborated in 2011 with smash hits "We Found Love" and "Where Have You Been."
6. "If It Ain't Love"
"If it ain't love, why does it feel so good?" Jason Derulo asks on this track.
We'll let him figure that one out on his own -- as long as he keeps singing.
7. "Panda," Desiigner
This sleeper hit by Brooklyn MC Desiigner has even been sampled by Kanye West. The single has stayed steady high up on the charts of Spotify for two months, with more than 1 million streams a day in the U.S., proving that pandas will always be viral on the internet.
8. "Don't Let Me Down," The Chainsmokers
The New York-based duo Chainsmokers have followed up their hit single "Roses" with "Don't Let Me Down," which hits 3 million streams a day globally.
9. "Wasted Time," Keith Urban
Who says a summer song has to be a poppy dance hit? Okay, so it is pretty dance-y, but with a banjo twist.
10. "Capsize," Frenship (feat. Emily Warren)
Frenship is a fresh-on-the-scene music duo based in Los Angeles, but they could be the ones to have this summer's biggest song: "Capsize" has hit 8 million streams just one month after its release.
