TikTok's Top Sounds of 2026 Revealed by Israeli Outlet
The Israeli website ICE has compiled its list of the top TikTok sounds for 2026, highlighting viral trends that dominated the platform. The number one sound is "Avi Hatachol" by Roi Adam, a pop ballad about heartbreak inspired by a character from the crime series "Ha'Borer." The song, released in June 2026, also topped major Israeli music charts and featured a music video with the actor who played the character.
Second on the list is "Meduyak" by teen star Eyal Levi, a catchy pop and electronic track released in February 2026 that spawned a viral dance challenge with approximately 164,000 associated videos. "Mandem" by Static, released the same month, secured the third spot with its international street slang influence and an artistic music video exploring gender identity. The song's unique sound led many users to search for it incorrectly as "Madame."
Fourth is "Kokoriko" by Gal Juma, which gained over 113,000 uses after its March 2026 release. While successful musically, the song also sparked controversy due to a provocative dance challenge that drew criticism from parents and public figures concerned about its influence on young girls.
The fifth sound is "Ktabam" by 11-year-old Nir Kriegel, a song written about personal experiences with security realities, air raid sirens, and running to shelters. The track went viral after Kriegel's sister posted a video of him performing it, leading to widespread media attention, including a live reading of the lyrics by a military correspondent.
The list also includes "Squishies Party" by Mayky the Glasses Girl, "My Friends" by Liad Meir, "Bridezilla" by Noa Kirel, and "Amen" by Eden Golan, rounding out the top sounds that defined the platform's trends and cultural moments throughout the year.
