Our 5 Seconds of Summer songs list presents the biggest hit singles from a very popular band from Australia formed in the early 2010s. While there have been many successful Australian bands over the past 50 years such as AC/DC, The Bee Gees, Inxs, Crowded House and so many more, 5 Seconds of Summer stand as one of the most recent successful groups emerging from the land down under. The group has sold over ten million records in less than a ten year period. They constantly sell out tours while also breaking worldwide streaming records as their songs stream in the billions. Here are ten of their most successful singles.

# 10 – Jet Black Heart

We open up our 5 Seconds Of Summer Songs list with the great song “Jet Black Heart.”  The song was released on the album entitled Sounds Good Feels Good.

In the United Kingdom the song hit number sixty. In the band’s native home of Australia the song was a top 40 hit peaking at number thirty four. There is a bit of an anthem to this song in a minor key sort of sense. A good one to start with that showcases a great chorus and verse.

# 9 – Want You Back

Continuing with our 5 Seconds Of Summer Songs list we take a listen to the great song entitled “Want You Back,” which has nothing to do with the Jackson Five song “I Want You Back.” Yet, this one does have a great groove that elevates a spectacular chorus. The song was released on the album entitled Youngblood. The album was released in 2018. It was the first single released from the album. The song was a hit on the US Billboard Hot 100 peaking at number sixty one. In the band’s native home of Australia the song charted at number thirty two. However, it was in the United Kingdom where the song did the best reaching the number twenty two spot on the United Kingdom pop charts.

# 8 – Easier

In the number eight spot our 5 Seconds Of Summer Songs list we present the song entitled “Easier.” This is one of the band’s most recent awesome hits. “Easier,” was recorded with Charlie Puth. This one has sort of a Miley Cyrus vibe to it. The song was released on the album entitled Calm. The album was released in 2019. It was the first single released from the album. The song hit number twelve in Australia. The song was also a hit on the US Billboard Hot 100 peaking at number forty eight. In the United Kingdom the song hit number twenty seven.

It was a top 20 hit in Australia peaking at number fifteen.

The song was issued on the album Youngblood. The song only charted in Australia. Yet, this is actually a really good song and it should have been a hit around the world.

# 4 – Don’t Stop

At the number four spot on our 5 Seconds Of Summer songs list we present the song “Don’t Stop,” that has nothing to do with the Fleetwood Mac song of the same name. This one has a sort of New Found Glory, Blink-182 or Simple Plan groove. It’s very early 90s sounding. The song was released on the album entitled 5 Seconds of Summer. It was the band’s debut album released in 2014. The song was released as the second single on the album. “Don’t Stop,” was a number one hit in the countries of Ireland and New Zealand.
