After ‘Euphoria’s’ Addictive Soundtracks, Sam Levinson’s ‘The Idol’ Continues the Good Run
The Idol is being compared to its sister show Euphoria since it was first announced. Developed in the same universe led by Sam Levinson, people had huge expectations from the newbie. The teen series has already made an impression on viewers garnering a massive fandom for itself. Sadly, The Weeknd’s drama failed to reach the bar set by its predecessor and only received criticism for its raunchy theme. Despite all this, the show has continued the legacy in one thing and that’s soundtracks.
Pop Tingz recently dropped the song list of The Idol on Twitter. The post revealed that the soundtracks of this HBO show have taken over the minds of viewers. “Every song hits the right notes, perfectly complementing the show’s emotions and storyline. Abel is a genius,” read the tweet. Meanwhile, they also asked netizens about their favorite song from the series.

The streaming numbers of the songs have been rapidly growing, with many people hearing them on a loop. Released on June 9, ‘World Class Sinner / I’m A Freak’ has been listened to more than 7.5 million times on Spotify. In fact, the video of the song has racked up 2.7 million views on YouTube and fans are literally freaking out.
This success reminds us of the time when Jungkook’s solo song ‘Love Yourself: Answer’ broke an all-time record with Euphoria. This song was included in the soundtracks of the show and charted for 26 weeks on Billboard World Digital Song Sales. His surreal voice and the deep meaning of the lyrics captivated the hearts of the music lovers. Just like that, the new drama has also followed the steps and fans are raving about it.

On the other hand, some are mocking the show for its failure while praising the music depicted in the series.
