SPOTIFY ALL-TIME TOP 10: HOW BIG IS BIG?

We were recently poring over some Spotify streaming stats (readily available on the app to anyone who's curious) and got to wondering: How big do the biggest records get? Chart-toppers like The Kid LAROI's "Stay" (1.5b+ global streams), Glass Animals' "Heat Waves" and Lil Nas X's "MONTERO (Call Me by Your Name)" (both 1.3b+) are clearly enormous. So what are the biggest songs of the streaming era so far? Well, here's a Top 10 list, which shows that you need more than 2b total streams to hit the all-time leaderboard—and well over 3b to wrest the #1 title from Ed Sheeran's mitts.

Stay will be at #3 by the year end and willl probably end up at #2 or #1 if it has more longevity 

Posted

Dance Monkey didn’t feel as big as it was, at least in the US

Posted

Do we have an idea of how much money those songs have made from streaming alone?

Posted

Is there a list for pre 00s songs?

Posted

I can see Imagine Legends going higher than #10 as well because Believer is constantly re-entering the iTunes charts. Kings. :clap3:

Posted

Does this not combine multiple versions?

Sunflower is the only really great song here

The fact that 9 and 10 are gonna be rotating for a bit when we have songs like Bad Guy, Don't Start Now and Levitating knocking at the door. :rip:

 

Also Abel has that #1 in the bag by the end of the year at the latest.

Artists get $0.003-0.005 per stream so Ed basically got 10-15 million for Shape of You ( probably half once the label and all the other rightholders get paid) :deadbanana2:

And that's just from Spotify. Once you count Apple Music, Amazon Music, Deezer, etc. it's probably at least 1.5x times as much. And then you have to add worldwide radio airplay royalties, TV/ad/film licensing, cover royalties, etc. He probably made over $30M from that song alone.

Don't Start Now & Levitating are coming~
