Stream NPR Music's 100 Best Songs of 2021

The figurative ink has dried on our 100 Best Songs of 2021 list, and it's ready for you to lean in and listen. We've built the playlist on five streaming providers:

  • Spotify
  • Apple Music
  • Tidal
  • Amazon Music
  • YouTube Music
  • The playlist consists of 99 songs, and that's because one song — The Baylor Project's "We Swing" — is only available commercially as a download. (You can still watch the video on YouTube.) Click on the links above to be taken directly to each streaming service, or scroll down to listen via one of our five embedded playlists.
