YouTube shorts songs, updated

The top YouTube Shorts song this week is BAD TIMES by Imael Angel, number 1 on ClipMusic's Shorts chart for Nov 4 to Nov 11 2026.

It is trending because Shorts creators keep pasting links to it for slowed, moody edits, and Aphex Twin's QKThr is right behind at number 2.

The rest of the chart is heavy on phonk, hardtekk and game music rather than radio pop.

What is trending on YouTube right now

ClipMusic ranks Shorts songs by how many distinct creators appear in the YouTube links people submit, so it measures curiosity rather than raw plays.

That is why slowed edits, hardtekk remixes and unlabeled phonk show up here far more than chart pop does.

YouTube's own Shorts chart is regional, and on the 8 Nov 2026 South Korea count the only instrumental inside the top 50 was Waterflame's Jumper at number 15.

Brazil tells a different story, with Laurinha Costa's Tap Tap at number 1 on the 10 Nov 2026 Shorts songs chart and funk filling most of the top ten.

If you are picking a sound for a Short, the safest bet is one that already has a repeatable format attached, like a dance loop or a game highlight.

How do I find a song from a YouTube Short?
