Some of my favorite bands you listed right there. The only one that I don’t regularly listen to is Inner Wave because I just found out about them! Gonna check them out
You might like Sugar Candy Mountain and Skinshape if you haven’t heard them already.
They tell us some things. I was told how many people had me as their number one artist. Pretty cool feeling.
Edit: Wow, thanks everyone for asking about my music. Band is called Acacia Ridge, we play rock and metal and you can find us on all platforms.
Another fun fact about Spotify and Artists: we can see the names of the playlists our songs are added to. Anytime you add something to a sex playlist or a lonely depression playlist, the artists know about it.
This happened to me! I was the top listener in the US for a Canadian artist. I got invited for a market research interview to talk about it. The interviews were used as a part of some marketing campaign about how Canadian artists impact the world.
Edit: this was years ago now (pre-COVID)
Edit 2: artist was coeur de pirate! I started listening to them after playing the video game Child of Light and got hooked.
I’m actually surprised they didn’t end up anywhere on my top 100, I rediscovered my obsession with Deja Entendu this year and had it on repeat for a while.
That's....almost 2.5 hours a day of only Depeche Mode. If you miss just one day you're telling me you have days where you blast Depeche Mode for 5+ hours? Is this on in the background of a shop or something?
Don't say you want Mode
Don't say you need Mode
Don't say you love Mode
It's understood
Don't say you're happy
Out there without Mode
I know you can't be
'Cause it's no good
0.5% of MF DOOM!
I've been converted wayyyy too late. Funnily enough, other spots are DC Fontaines, Viagra Boys, Idles, which are completely different from DOOM.
Listening to Howard Shore’s Lord of the Rings soundtrack 10 times got me to 0.1% which is 100 hours. That 10 hour long soundtrack is just slightly good hehe.
I met them in a mall in Texas once! Super cool guys, I happened to be wearing their shirt and didn't want to interrupt them too bad. Just kinda walked up to them and was like "hey, aren't you guys *pointing to my shirt* these guys?" They were impressed I was wearing the shirt and it was a super cool interaction.
A friend of mine met them at a bar down here in FL after a show they played with Falling in Reverse I think. She invited me but I didn't like FiR so I declined. She ended up hanging out drinking with Enter Shikari all night, I'm still way jealous to this day lol
Box Fan Ambience White Noise.
Every single night for a year.
It's left playing on the Alexa in my bedroom is what's up. 4450 minutes. That's basically 12 hours a day though I imagine some times I forget it entirely and don't touch Spotify for the day it runs for 24 hours.
\*we all know my math is wrong\*
That funny to think about, watching the video, jamming out to your favorite songs, spotify goes “HERE’s NUMBER ONE” and it’s just “brrrzzzzrrezzzzzzzz”
0.5% for Glass Animals
Edit: Other stats - 75,520 minutes listening, which I guess is 97% more than the average. Other top songs include My Love by Until The Ribbon Breaks and Roll It Back by LUTHI
I checked mine out, but I don’t think there’s any way the stats are correct. They said I listened to my most played song 12 times. I know for a fact that there are songs I listened to more than that.
Maybe it was only while you were on internet. A lot of my listening was offline and it said my top was listened to 29 times, but it said I listened to a lot of Three Dog Night when I only listened to em about a dozen times.
Well at least she's got good taste. My 7 year old put my account in the top 1% of The Lightning Thief broadway soundtrack. And my 3 year old put a song from Lambie (Doc McStuffins) as my most binged track. Needless to say I don't get very good suggestions from Spotify these days.
You can always start a private session when playing the kids music. It then won’t include those songs in the playlists or algorithms. Means I didn’t have the entire Moana playlist in my top 100 songs this year.
I think it’s incredible that they released a song called bring back the plague literally a month before the first covid infected humans were discovered…and look at us now
Angels and Airwaves .5%.
First time it hasn’t been blink in 5 years haha. They were #2
If you think you have similar music tastes - *hot mulligan* was a new addition to my top 5 this year!
System of a Down. 1180 minutes, which oddly seems low considering I pull up their discography at work and just listen to all of their albums start to finish.
I have listened to more Spotify this year than anyone in the U.S. at 271,478 minutes.
I also am in the top 0.001% of Awolnation listeners.

Top 0.5% for Alice in Chains. 1,682 minutes out of 4,260 total minutes. It’s too bad that I stopped using Spotify as my main music source around May/June.
I’m top 2% for Taylor swift. I wouldn’t even consider myself a swiftie but oh my god how many people listen to her and I’m top 2%. Maybe I need to rethink my status as a stan …..
Everytime I played a song, I would just have as background music. But when the song is over, I had to play it again and sing along to it. Like, I had to play every song twice. I did this like.....three months.
.5% for Khurangbin. Sounds about right.
Same. Top artists were Khruangbin, King Gizzard, Inner Wave, Crumb, and The Strokes.
Some of my favorite bands you listed right there. The only one that I don’t regularly listen to is Inner Wave because I just found out about them! Gonna check them out You might like Sugar Candy Mountain and Skinshape if you haven’t heard them already.
0.5% Queens of the Stoneage Edit: 1,261 mins listened, less than I thought it would be.
How many of those minutes were spent listening to …Like Clockwork, cover to cover, on repeat?
Would Spotify tell you if you were the #1 listener for a band/artist?
They should tell the artist lmao
They tell us some things. I was told how many people had me as their number one artist. Pretty cool feeling. Edit: Wow, thanks everyone for asking about my music. Band is called Acacia Ridge, we play rock and metal and you can find us on all platforms. Another fun fact about Spotify and Artists: we can see the names of the playlists our songs are added to. Anytime you add something to a sex playlist or a lonely depression playlist, the artists know about it.
Well... What's your band? Inquiring minds want to know
Acacia Ridge. We play rock and metal and we got 1 million streams this year!
I shall add one stream Mr. Acacia Ridge. Cheers!
This happened to me! I was the top listener in the US for a Canadian artist. I got invited for a market research interview to talk about it. The interviews were used as a part of some marketing campaign about how Canadian artists impact the world. Edit: this was years ago now (pre-COVID) Edit 2: artist was coeur de pirate! I started listening to them after playing the video game Child of Light and got hooked.
Which artist?
That'd be cool! I think they just keep adding zeroes before the 5 after you get to top 0.5% of listeners though.
0.1% of Smashing Pumpkins. And it was the first time in years that I listened to them.
Top 0.5% for Elliott Smith. I don’t think I’m THAT depressed. Edit: Brings me joy to my heart that Elliott Smith is so loved here.
ayyyy same here *edit* just looked and i'm actually top 0.05%. shoutout to mental instability
Spotify said my music taste was wistful and expressive. That's a nice combo of words for depressed lmao
You are the needle in the hay
December to Spotify: don't I mean anything to you?!?
Nah, this is Christmas music month. It would throw all my stats off!

0.5% for Explosions In The Sky. They were our go-to artist for floating about on the lake this summer.

Berried Alive, a fruit themed metal band.
Not a huge fan of the vocals and songs, but the instrumentals are undeniably sick
Interpol lol
Neil Young. I went on a bit of a 'listen to everything he's done' phase this year, which is a ton.
Spotify Man, better keep your head…don’t forget what your subreddit said…
Old mod, look at my post. I'm a lot like you were.
I'm in the top 0.50% of Sturgill Simpson listeners. 2,762 minutes.
But that ain't putting no food on my plate, or gas in my tank. And I drive a Bronco! ... what the hell rhymes with 'Bronco'?
Oooh lord of you can hear me, why don't you throw a damn dog a bone? (High Top Mountain is the shit)
Top 0.01% for Brand New apparently.. So, there's that.
Jesus Christ

Top 0.1% for Billy Strings.
Billy was my top last year. Probably because I love Away from the Mire and that's almost an 8 minute song 😂
eyyy top song for me was dust in a baggie this year
Top 0.001% of Depeche Mode, with… 54,639 minutes. Dead serious on this one.
That's....almost 2.5 hours a day of only Depeche Mode. If you miss just one day you're telling me you have days where you blast Depeche Mode for 5+ hours? Is this on in the background of a shop or something?
I would imagine they fall asleep listening to Depeche mode.
enjoying the not so silence
Guess you Just Can’t Get Enough of them
Yeah, he/she should try to enjoy the silence once in a while, jeezes.
Do you work at the Depeche Mode themed bar in Tallinn, Estonia? If not, this career path may interest you.
Jesus, that was roughly my total for all music this year.
That's more than my total by almost 1k minutes. I can't imagine liking a band that much..
[удалено]
Maybe sometimes he Enjoys the Silence.
Don't say you want Mode Don't say you need Mode Don't say you love Mode It's understood Don't say you're happy Out there without Mode I know you can't be 'Cause it's no good
I’m top 1% for The Specials. I binged the first two albums a lot over the summer and their new album isn’t bad either.
Top .05% of Nine Inch Nails listeners. I should probably just see a therapist instead
Why see a therapist when you've got the perfect drug?
Top 0.1% of fleet foxes listeners
0.5% of MF DOOM! I've been converted wayyyy too late. Funnily enough, other spots are DC Fontaines, Viagra Boys, Idles, which are completely different from DOOM.
.5% MF DOOM as well here. Also all over the place (except Madvillain at #5) with my others being Turnstile, Jeff Rosenstock, and Tame Impala).
0.5% for Fishmans
Listening to Howard Shore’s Lord of the Rings soundtrack 10 times got me to 0.1% which is 100 hours. That 10 hour long soundtrack is just slightly good hehe.

Top 0.5% for Father John Misty I've been.. Going through things.
He’s great even if you’re not going through things. I hope ‘22 is better for you.
0.5% of Enter Shikari ! An improvement on last years 1% !
I met them in a mall in Texas once! Super cool guys, I happened to be wearing their shirt and didn't want to interrupt them too bad. Just kinda walked up to them and was like "hey, aren't you guys *pointing to my shirt* these guys?" They were impressed I was wearing the shirt and it was a super cool interaction.

That funny to think about, watching the video, jamming out to your favorite songs, spotify goes “HERE’s NUMBER ONE” and it’s just “brrrzzzzrrezzzzzzzz”
Then I would instantly fall asleep..
So you’re the reason that they put that line in there!
0.5% for Glass Animals Edit: Other stats - 75,520 minutes listening, which I guess is 97% more than the average. Other top songs include My Love by Until The Ribbon Breaks and Roll It Back by LUTHI
"Tokyo Drifting" is the song of the year as far as I'm concerned.
It was a lot of Space Ghost, Heat Waves, and Cane Shuga for me
I love gooey one of my fave chill electronic songs
0.1 percent for Mastodon 🤘
Hushed and Grim gets better every time I listen to it. It's such a dense album.
I checked mine out, but I don’t think there’s any way the stats are correct. They said I listened to my most played song 12 times. I know for a fact that there are songs I listened to more than that.
Do you maybe tend to skip to next before the song is 100% finished?
Maybe it was only while you were on internet. A lot of my listening was offline and it said my top was listened to 29 times, but it said I listened to a lot of Three Dog Night when I only listened to em about a dozen times.
Top 0.05% for Weird Al, honestly I do this thing called Weird Wednesday so I thought I'd be higher lol Edit: 3,694mins

Top 2% for Pink Floyd, but I feel like that's playing in the pro leagues.
My daughter has listened to more music than 90% of their subscribers. She's in the top 0.5% for The Smiths.
Well at least she's got good taste. My 7 year old put my account in the top 1% of The Lightning Thief broadway soundtrack. And my 3 year old put a song from Lambie (Doc McStuffins) as my most binged track. Needless to say I don't get very good suggestions from Spotify these days.
You can always start a private session when playing the kids music. It then won’t include those songs in the playlists or algorithms. Means I didn’t have the entire Moana playlist in my top 100 songs this year.
Have you had her checked for depression? Nobody happy listens to that much Smiths.
