I'm pretty sure these songs will be in the top 10
Blinding Lights
Rockstar
Savage
strong contenders: Say So, Roses, Rain On Me and Watermelon Sugar. Drake's lead song too.

The song of the summer is most likely a song that is already out now. There has only been one summer to my recollection when a song came out after June and stole the summer, and that would be in 2018 with "In My Feelings."
So far in 2020 we don't really have an obvious contender. Every week has been a crazy and different #1. It's hard to tell.

I believe the top 20 will for sure consist of:
ROCKSTAR
Blinding Lights
Say So
Savage
Toosie Slide
Roses
I Hope
Other potential entries:
Like That
The Box
Don't Start Now
Circles
Blueberry Faygo
Intentions
death bed
Sunday Best
Break My Heart
Be Kind
Rain on Me
Stuck with U
Sprinkle in a few songs yet to take off/release, probably around 5-8 of them. Boom, there's your list.
As for which one will be #1? Hard to say, usually there's one or two songs clearly dominating by now, but currently there aren't. I'll give the edge to ROCKSTAR and Savage at the moment.

I know this is supposed to mean which song with be most played, top the charts, etc. this summer but I'm going to go a different direction - which ones just FEELS like summer to me.
And for that, I'm going to pick: "Watermelon Sugar"

ROCKSTAR will be number one for a few months but like with Cheerleader and In My Feelings, Roses will be number one by the time August ends.
Also think High Fashion could be a subtle summer hit and hopefully Roddy pushes Bacc Seat as a single as well.`

Contenders:
"ROCKSTAR" — with "The Box" possibly finishing as the biggest song of the year, could Roddy Ricch rule the summer, too?
"Blinding Lights" — Abel might not reach the summit of the Hot 100 again, but consistency and longevity of this is unmatched.
"Savage" — this is flying up radio charts, so it will take a while for it to fall down the charts. certainly making the top ten, imo.
"Like That" — now look, I love "Say So," but this would be a waste of a single + music video if they don't officially put it out.
"Rain On Me" — having a decent second week after its #1 entrance, so i hope it lingers around the top ten through the summer.
"Watermelon Sugar" — radio is so on board with this that it's hard imagining this failing to go top ten. summery music video, too.
"Break My Heart" — pop radio seems willing to take this to top 2. wishing it re-peaks on streaming then a la "Don't Start Now."
Drake — whatever lazy song this man drops will probably last a while. i just hope it's better than "in my feelings."
Rihanna, Adele and Beyoncé — i don't think so

Blueberry Faygo sounds like a summer song. If SOTS was based on which songs have a summer vibe rather than chart position, it’d be #1. ROCKSTAR does not sound like a summer song at all (I still like it)

That's interesting because "ROCKSTAR" has HUGE summer vibes to me. That guitar riff is exactly the type of riff you'd hear on hip-hop summer hits of the mid-2000s.
