In observance of its 20 th anniversary, for the first time, Spotify is revealing the most streamed artists, songs, albums, podcasts and audiobooks in its history.

They are a revealing look at the listening habits of hundreds of millions of people, although obviously myriad other factors beyond popularity are involved: The lists skew heavily toward recent years as Spotify’s subscriber base has grown, and also it is unclear how paid and ad-supported (i.e. free) streaming are factored in.
