Top Foreign Pop Songs of Gratitude [2026]

I chose mainly Western songs that sing about gratitude.

This is a feeling none of us should ever forget.

I’m not saying you have to consciously recall your daily gratitude, but try listening while thinking a little about the people close to you.

This time, I selected tracks that have been popular on YouTube so far, so please check them out!
