This week marks the 10th anniversary of the public debut of Spotify, and the streaming service has released a few all-time “most-streamed” lists. Think of them as global playlists for the last decade of your life.

Taking the No. 1 spot on the most-streamed artist rundown is Drake, with Ed Sheeran landing atop the most-streamed song list with “Shape of You.” Rihanna was the first artist to achieve one billion streams in 2013 and leads the list of most-streamed female artists globally.

Sheeran marks two entries on the most-played track list with “Shape of You” at the top and “Thinking Out Loud” in fifth place. Drake’s “One Dance” holds second place, the Chainsmokers and Halsey’s “Closer” is third, while Post Malone takes fourth place with “rockstar” (feat. 21 Savage). The Chainsmokers also mark two spots on the top 10 thanks to “Don’t Let Me Down” landing at No. 10, while Justin Bieber gets two entries with “Love Yourself” and “Sorry” at No. 8 and No. 9 respectively.

Spotify felt the need to break out a separate list of most-streamed female artists, possibly due to no female artist having a song make the most-streamed top 10. Rihanna sits atop the list followed by Arianna Grande, Sia, Beyoncé, and then Nicki Minaj. Their initial reluctance to join the service in its infancy may explain why Adele and Taylor Swift follow at No. 6 and No. 7, respectively. 

Sweden-based company Spotify Technology S.A. launched to the public in October 2008 with Coldplay’s “Viva La Vida” becoming the most-streamed track of the debut month. A decade later the service, founded by current CEO Daniel Ek and Martin Lorentzon, has more than 180 million monthly active listeners across 65 countries, features more than 40 million tracks, 2,000-plus genres, more than three billion playlists, and has clocked 16,858,080 years of time streamed. 

In April, it went public on the New York Stock Exchange with shares (SPOT.N) opening at US$165.90, which gave the company a then market value of US$29.5 billion. Shares closed at US$149.48 on Wednesday.

Streaming music services have increased in recent years in both volume of music and competition, with customers now having multiple outlets vying for their business. Apple (AAPL.O), Tidal, Amazon (AMZN.O) and Android have all launched their own services with YouTube Music debuting in June.

Spotify’s biggest competitor is currently Apple Music with more than 50 million subscribers—and, of course, illegal downloads.  Globally 38 percent of online listeners continue to consume music illegally through copyright infringement practices such as stream ripping, according to a 2018 report by the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI).

Here, though, are the hits.
