So, as of 22/09, What Do You Mean by Justin Bieber is the most streamed on Spotify, followed by Drag Me Down by One Direction. However, 1D's latest song, Infinity, has just been released onto Spotify, so perhaps that will change.

Now, 2 years later, Katy and Ariana are here, but since 1989 wasn't on spotify for 3 years, it never got that many streams and her other albums weren't popular enough.

Taylor didn't put her stuff on Spotify until 2017, so while she's popular, she doesn't have as many streams as she should.

I am sooo not in touch with popmusic haha I dont recognize ANY of the songs, only with take me to church I here a piece of a song in my head, and only I think because it has continuously been used in some commercial, whether it be spotify or on (m)tv. Because I remember only the same 3 seconds over and over, no idea about the rest of the song.

So I started guessing names you hear a lot about lately, I got sheeran, bieber, adele and rihanna ( and expected swift and grande) Then I was out of guesses haha.

Ow and all of me reminded me of an old jazz standard ! but figured that wasnt it. And actually, looking at the results, John legend is the only name I recognize ! ow and timberlake. The rest could ve been made up for all I know. No idea.

That's the spirit! I'm so tired of the, "popular music sucks today," and, "I scored 0 and I'm proud!" attitude. People really need to be more open-minded, especially on a website like Jetpunk that rewards broad cultural knowledge. One of the people on the list (Kendrick) got a Pulitzer for his music for God's sake!
