Here\u2019s how those tracks are hitting new highs.<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3>An iconic soundtrack legacy<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Stranger Things is back for its final chapter, and once again, its soundtrack is reshaping streaming behavior. Each season&#8217;s soundtrack has been central to the show\u2019s 80s identity, and over the years, has repeatedly introduced classic tracks to younger listeners while giving older fans a heavy dose of nostalgia.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Season 5 continues that tradition. The show\u2019s latest soundtrack leans into recognizable 80s hits that feel woven into the show\u2019s world rather than simply placed on top of it. And for the music industry, it\u2019s another example of how major TV moments can unlock new audiences, revive older tracks, and reintroduce them back into the spotlight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Streams surge for Season 5\u2019s tracks<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/upload-your-music-to-spotify-for-free\/\">Spotify<\/a> has now <a href=\"https:\/\/newsroom.spotify.com\/2025-12-16\/stranger-things-season-5-playlist-takeover\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">revealed<\/a> that songs featured in Stranger Things season 5 have seen significant spikes in streams following the show\u2019s release. In fact, several tracks have experienced triple-digit increases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Streams for:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/track\/0q4n6bEZBccuEBusNQaAXU?si=35651fe19db34c03\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">\u201cMr. Sandman\u201d<\/a> by <a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/artist\/62GnBjssWSXBlKvQohT2Bk?si=9b7b8978ae5b4ae8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The Chordettes<\/a> are up 625%<\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/track\/3pbtBomO4Zt5gGiqsYeiBH?si=3cfefcca8ce44bbb\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">\u201cUpside Down\u201d<\/a> by <a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/artist\/3MdG05syQeRYPPcClLaUGl?si=505e68054b6248ae\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Diana Ross<\/a> are up 510%<\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/track\/4uvjOKsp7mSjrDhWdkLPBY?si=16f2243ef8034062\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">\u201cI Think We\u2019re Alone Now\u201d<\/a> by <a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/artist\/4C3uGP8vRDzxrhJxZiOjTe?si=235c6d6be4c544ca\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Tiffany<\/a> are up 490%<\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/track\/4BM8yJ0PzBi2ZewpMTOxtx?si=177bcc19fe3a44e1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">\u201cFernando\u201d<\/a> by <a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/artist\/0LcJLqbBmaGUft1e9Mm8HV?si=c522647a36a34d26\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ABBA<\/a> are up 335%<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, Stranger Things is no stranger to propelling classics into a newfound popularity. The most famous example remains Kate Bush\u2019s \u201cRunning Up That Hill (A Deal With God)\u201d, which exploded after its pivotal role in season 4. At the time, <a href=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/2022\/music\/news\/kate-bush-running-up-that-hill-streams-stranger-things-1235284562\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Variety reported<\/a> a 8,700% increase in Spotify streams compared to before the season launched.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Stranger Things wider music campaign<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Alongside the streaming spikes, Spotify has leaned into the moment with a wider campaign built around Stranger Things\u2019s fictional radio station, WSQK The Sqwuak.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/playlist\/37i9dQZF1DXc3KPAjGyPdm?si=g7CEiuU7QjOArWVyW1ZkrA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Stranger Things Official Playlist<\/a>, one of Spotify\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/the-ten-biggest-spotify-playlists-for-soundtracks\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">most-saved soundtrack playlists<\/a>, is hosting a series of radio-style takeovers voiced by Maya Hawke, who plays Robin in the show. These announcements are designed to promote Volume 2 of season 5, blending the show\u2019s storytelling with real-world engagement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Between December 16 and 18, new announcements drop daily at 8AM ET (1PM GMT), some of which contain hidden clues tied to the upcoming episodes. Spotify adds that while not every announcement is a clue, it\u2019s best to take note of any numbers you hear. The final clue will be revealed on December 18.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/pr-newsroom-wp\/1\/2025\/12\/watch-feed-ux-FINAL-1440x935.png\" alt=\"\"\/><figcaption><em>Image credits: <a href=\"https:\/\/newsroom.spotify.com\/2025-12-16\/stranger-things-season-5-playlist-takeover\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Spotify<\/a><\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Other playlist features for season 5 included a Stranger Things Musical Time Machine which explored iconic 80s hits, a recap of big moments from each season, and more. It\u2019s smart marketing that keeps fans engaged and listening closely, while keeping music at the forefront.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Beyond streaming: Stranger Things pop-up radio station<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This isn\u2019t the show\u2019s only promotion centred around the in-show radio station. Stranger Things also partnered with Global to launch a fully immersive pop-up version of WSQK The Squawk to promote the show throughout its staggered rollout. Fans can tune in to the station on Global Player from 24 November through to 1 January.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The station plays non-stop 1980s hits alongside retro American-style ads and interactive segments themed around the show. All of which are processed through vintage broadcast equipment to recreate an authentic 80s FM sound.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div align=\"center\"><blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/DR2J9PIjM4e\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;
