GTA 6 Trailer 2 Boosts Pointer Sisters' Song on Spotify

The Pointer Sisters' hit song "Hot Together" has experienced a monumental surge in Spotify streams, thanks to its inclusion in the newly released trailer for Grand Theft Auto 6. The trailer, which debuted just yesterday, has propelled the 1986 track to new heights, with global Spotify streams skyrocketing by an astonishing 182,000% within the first two hours of the trailer's release. Although Spotify's figures have not been updated since yesterday, "Hot Together" currently stands at just over 250,000 streams, a number expected to rise significantly in the coming days.

Sulinna Ong, Spotify's Global Head of Editorial, remarked on the impact of the Grand Theft Auto series on popular culture, stating, "Music has been synonymous with the series since the very beginning, so it’s great to see fans both new and established connecting with an iconic track in this way."

The Grand Theft Auto 6 trailer has already garnered an impressive 77.7 million views on YouTube within 24 hours of its release. The success of "Hot Together" mirrors the experience of Tom Petty's "Love Is A Long Road," which saw a similar spike in streams following its feature in the first GTA 6 trailer in late 2023. The popularity of Petty's song even sparked fan theories about its connection to the game's storyline, although no such speculation has yet emerged for "Hot Together."

As fans eagerly await the release of Grand Theft Auto 6, now scheduled for May 26, 2026, after a recent delay, they have plenty of great music to enjoy in the interim.
