A new study conducted by Word List Finder has revealed the electronic dance music songs that garner the most lyric searches.
The study examined Google search results from January 2019 to July 2023 and broke down which tracks had the most searches for their lyrics across a number of genres. With regards to the EDM category, David Guetta and Sia’s 2011 generational dance hit “Titanium” came out on top.
The rest of the top five consists of “We Found Love” by Calvin Harris and Rihanna; “Closer” by The Chainsmokers and Halsey; “Lean On” by Major Lazer, DJ Snake and MØ; and “Pursuit of Happiness” by Kid Cudi, Ratatat and MGMT.
The study also broke down the “most associated genre searches by state” and found that 13 states—including Colorado, Hawaii, Nevada, New Mexico and Oregon—were the leaders for EDM lyric searches.
The study also researched the top lyric searches for songs from many other genres. Dolly Parton “Jolene” led the country realm while Eminem’s “Lose Yourself” was named the most-searched hip-hop track. Meanwhie, Metallica’s “Enter Sandman” was the metal leader and alt-J’s “Breezeblocks” topped the indie category.
The most-searched track across all genres? That distinction went to Queen’s “Bohemian Rhapsody,” with the Eagles’ “Hotel California” finishing in second.
