You can't seriously think Arctic monkeys are two hit wonders, can you? 

on a global level only this song and Do I Wanna Know are recognizable classics. With other albums, they had a bunch of local success in the UK, but on a WW level only these two songs really did some damage outside of it.

I wouldn’t be shocked if AM the album eventually has 4 1 billion steamed songs. They are also likely gonna have FIVE eventually because of “505” too. 
 

“I Wanna Be Yours” is currently #1 on their Spotify & at 720M plays.  It’s #32 on global Spotify currently w/ 2.16M plays yesterday so it is likely gonna reach 1B within the next year.

 

”R U Mine?” is also at 716M plays and is still #5 on their Spotify. Will take longer to get there but I think it eventually will.

 

”505” is at 885M plays and is #4 on their Spotify & was charting earlier this year so it is likely gonna pass 1B within next year or 2.

It's a rock band. The genre doesn't work on singles or chart peaks. And still they have many other huge songs. 

 

Even if we were to go by this bizarre billion streams singles standard, just look at this. 

 

Wait, I had no idea 505 was their song So yea, guess you are right.

The longevity of AM is just astounding, I expected it to be stayed as a Tumblr classic but it’s still going so strong.. 12th most streamed album this week on Spotify
