It’s Pride Month, so here’s a question: If you were putting together a Pride playlist, which song by which artist would be first on your list? If you said “Born This Way” by Lady Gaga, a lot of people agree with you.
Spotify has released a list of the top songs and artists on listeners’ Pride playlists this year, and “Born This Way” is the most-added song across all those playlists on the platform. The most-added artist overall is also Lady Gaga.
After “Born This Way,” the second most popular Pride playlist song is “I’m Coming Out” by Diana Ross, followed by Cher’s “Believe.” Here’s the rest of the top 10:
4. “I Wanna Dance with Somebody (Who Loves Me)” by Whitney Houston 5. “Vogue” by Madonna 6. “Dancing Queen” by ABBA 7. “I Kissed A Girl” by Katy Perry 8. “Dancing On My Own” by Robyn 9. “Rain On Me (with Ariana Grande)” by Lady Gaga & Ariana Grande 10. “Toxic” by Britney Spears
As for the top artists added to Pride playlists, the second most popular is Madonna, followed by Ariana Grande. Here’s the rest of the top 10:
4. Britney Spears 5. Katy Perry 6. Beyoncé 7. Whitney Houston 8. Diana Ross 9. Kylie Minogue 10. Dua Lipa
Spotify also split out popular Pride tracks by users’ ages. For example, Gen Z listeners really like “Red Wine Supernova” by Chappell Roan, while millennials tended to choose Kylie Minogue’s “Padam Padam.” And Gen X listeners went with “It’s Raining Men” by The Weather Girls, “Freedom! ’90” by George Michael and “We Are Family” by Sister Sledge.

Bring Me the Horizon has premiered a new single called “Dehumanized.”
The track will appear on Count Your Blessings | Repented, BMTH’s upcoming rerecording of their 2006 debut album, Count Your Blessings. Fittingly, “Dehumanized” finds Oli Sykes and company revisiting their early deathcore sound, complete with screaming vocals.
“Dehumanized” is accompanied by an equally brutal video full of blood, torture and entrails. The clip even begins with a viewer discretion advisory reading, “The following footage contains themes that some people may find distressing.”
If you can handle that, you can watch the “Dehumanized” video on YouTube.
Count Your Blessings | Repented is due out July 10. Bring Me the Horizon will be performing it live at the 2026 Furnace Fest in Birmingham, Alabama, in October.
Koe Wetzel adds 5 songs to ‘The Night Champion.’ (Columbia Records)
Just two weeks after the release of his new album, The Night Champion, Koe Wetzel is adding five new songs to the collection.
“Anyone who’s followed me for a while knows I’m not very good at calling it a night,” he says. “With how much love the fans have been showing this album already – and knowing we had these additional songs we believe in just as much – we figured we’d go ahead and turn ’em loose while the night’s still young.”
“Magnet,” “Bad Decisions,” “Ronnie Ray,” “Rolling & Smoking” and “Meet You There” were written and recorded alongside the album’s original 11 tracks.
The cover of the new five-song addition to The Night Champion features a photo of Koe’s grandfather, Raymond Wetzel, with his Nite Champion hunting dog. It drops on Friday.
Meanwhile, Koe has a top-10 hit with Corey Kent and “Rocky Mountain Low,” with his new single, “Hurts Like You,” starting its climb.
Koe kicks off the North American leg of The Night Champion World Tour July 8 in Edmonton, Alberta.
Thursday is Global Beatles Day, which celebrates the anniversary of the legendary band’s 1967 live performance of “All You Need is Love” on the BBC’s Our World special. Now fans at home can relive the performance.
This year marks the first time Apple Corps Ltd, the company founded by The Beatles, has officially recognized the fan celebration, which was launched in 2009 by lifelong fan Faith Cohen. To celebrate, The Beatles have released a colorized version of the Our World performance to YouTube for the first time.
The performance, originally broadcast to over 400 million people across 26 countries, was shot at Abbey Road Studios with The Beatles singing live over prerecorded vocals. The band is backed by an orchestra and surrounded by such superstar friends as Mick Jagger, Eric Clapton, Keith Richards, Keith Moon and Marianne Faithfull.
But that’s not the only way Global Beatles Day is being celebrated.
Ringo Starr posted a message on Instagram, writing, “All you need is love, love peace and love. I send you all peace and love love love no matter what you choose. Choose love” with #GlobalBeatlesDay. Paul McCartney also acknowledged the day on Instagram, posting black-and-white shots of the band and writing, “Have a great time on what is now Global Beatles Day (good group!).”
Plus, the music collective Rockin’1000 released a video of 1,000 musicians performing “All You Need is Love” during a sold-out concert at Allianz Stadium in Turin, Italy. According to the video description, “(T)his song became something more than a performance. For a few minutes, there were no strangers among us. Just instruments, voices, arms around each other, and one song connecting thousands of people.”

It appears that Bad Wolves are gearing up to howl once more.
The band has shared a teaser of a new song apparently called “Paint It Red.” The track is set to premiere on June 29, and you can check out the preview via the Bad Wolves Instagram.

If you like what Miranda Lambert’s been cooking up with “Crisco,” you’ll be glad to know the song is also the title track of her new record arriving Oct. 2.
The 12-song collection also includes “A Song to Sing” with Chris Stapleton, her cover of Jim Croce’s “I’ll Have to Say I Love You in a Song” and “Till the Going’s Gone,” which drops Friday.
“I’ve always loved every corner of country music,” Miranda says. “The heartbreak songs, the honky-tonk songs, the songs that make you think and the songs that make you dance. Making this record reminded me that those things don’t have to be separated. We followed the songs wherever they wanted to go, trusted our instincts and ended up with something that feels really fun and really honest to who I am.”
Here’s the complete track list for Miranda Lambert’s Crisco, which she produced with songwriter Jesse Frasure:
“Snakeskin Boots” “Crisco” “Cowgirl Curtsy” “Two Things Can Be True” “Cuttin’ Onions” “Till The Going’s Gone” “To Everything” “Whiskey Business” “Right Where We Left It” “A Song To Sing” (with Chris Stapleton) “I’ll Have To Say I Love You In A Song” “Sunset Marquis”
