Songs & albums releases - December 2020

Added 2020-12-13 22:09:40 +0000 UTC

2020 was a crazy year for anime music on streaming platforms, and December was probably the best way we could have ended this year: Sony music unlocked hundreds of anime songs on Spotify.
We have been waiting for this for years, songs from Fullmetal Alchemist, Naruto, Bleach, Gintama, Gurren Lagann, Eureka Seven and so much more are now available in all countries where Spotify is available.

Let's review what has been released over this incredible month!

↩️ Come backs

We have identified more than 500 unlocked songs from Sony Music Labels, so I hope you won't hold it against me if I don't list them one by one in this post 😅

For those of you who wants to get the big idea, I recommend you going through the very long thread I did on Twitter.

If you want to get a more detailed list of songs updated, you can use the Sony filter on the website and then type "2020-12" in the search bar. It will list you all songs that have been added or updated related to Sony Music Labels.
