Apple Music Replay 2025 has arrived to validate your impeccable music taste

As the year winds down , music streaming services are beginning to roll out their annual retrospectives, and Apple Music is leading the charge . Apple Music Replay 2025 is available now to break down your listening statistics —even if the release comes with a full month left on the calendar . You can access your 2025 summary directly from the Home tab within the app .

As always, Replay provides a breakdown of your total listening time , the number of artists you explored , and your top-played songs and albums . This year’s edition also introduces new metrics: a discovery stat highlights artists you found for the first time in 2025 , while a “loyalty factor” identifies the acts you return to year after year . Additionally, a “comebacks” section tracks artists that have found their way back into your rotation .

On the global stage , the most popular track on Apple Music this year was the undeniable earworm “Apt.” by Rosé and Bruno Mars . The top five was rounded out by “Luther” by Kendrick Lamar and SZA, Lady Gaga and Mars’ “Die with a Smile” , Lamar’s “Not Like Us” , and Billie Eilish’s “Birds of a Feather” . “Apt.” also holds the distinction of being the year’s most Shazamed song .

Personally, I didn’t need an algorithm to tell me that party-metal heavyweights Electric Callboy and kawaii-metal pioneers Babymetal were my top artists of 2025. I’ve had both on heavy rotation since spring , and their energetic collaboration, “Ratatata,” was easily my top song . I was, however, surprised to see Japanese math rock band Toe landing in third place . Post-punk revivalists Editors also cracked my top five, likely driven by how often I revisited The Back Room at the start of the year .

Apple has been steadily refining these tools; early last year, the service rolled out a monthly version of Replay that tracks top media and personal milestones as they happen . Beyond the current year, you can revisit previous personalized Replay playlists or view your “Replay All Time” list to see which songs have dominated your listening history on the platform overall .
