[UnusualBoy]

I was expecting SLY or RITD to be there but I guess people were busy streaming and buying the whole album.

[Icarus]

Did the Australian music industry just not exist before 2009, according to the numbers provided.

You have never heard of Heat Waves, the biggest song of the decade so far? idk, maybe go out more?

[Moella]

Shallow is 13x platinum eligible and still smashing there.

 

#110 Spotify

#68 Apple Music
