What the latest German streaming data shows
The German streaming snapshot from mid-August 2026 notes that Treat You Better reached No. 66 on Spotify’s daily chart in Germany with 81,955 plays on August 16, 2026. This performance comes a full decade after the song’s original 2016 release, illustrating how stable his back catalog remains in the market. A recent German-language analysis emphasizes that the track still breaks into the national Top 100.
The same analysis highlights that Illuminate and his 2024 album Shawn both achieved high positions in Germany’s Official Charts, with Illuminate peaking at No. 2 and Shawn at No. 5. This combination of historic chart peaks and current daily streaming figures paints a consistent picture of Mendes as a long-term player in the German pop market.
