This Week's Signature Songs, State By State

    Here are the songs that defined America from Sept. 9 to Sept. 15, presented by BuzzFeed and Spotify. A state’s “signature song” is not its most popular, but its most distinctive — that is to say, the one that residents of that state streamed proportionally the most as compared with the U.S. as a whole.

    For the week ending Sept. 15, Pennsylvania got "Wasted" with Tiesto, Rhode Island embraced Childish Gambino, Connecticut adopted The Chainsmokers' single "Kanye," Indiana got on board with the Fall Out Boy revival, and Delaware stayed loyal to Bobby Shmurda. Next Thursday, more distinctive songs from BuzzFeed and Spotify.
