"Streamline" is a song composed by Spanish makina group Newton. It was released in 1994 as a single in Spain. In 1996, it was released in France, reaching number 30 on their national chart. It is the band's most popular song to date. Written by Juan Carlos Pla, the song is made up of a whistling tune along with drums, a choir (this can barely be heard in Track 1, but can be heard clearly in Track 2), and a piano.

In 2006, the song was featured in a Pepsi commercial featuring Jimmy Fallon, leading to some fame in the United States. The original length of the song was 5:05, but was shortened to fit the 30-second commercial. SPG Music re-released the song on July 10, 2006.

Streamline has been listened to 10,119,871 times on Spotify, as of June 2023.
