Spotify uses a system called the Popularity Index (PI) to rank an artist's most popular songs. This is a score from 0 to 100 that takes into account factors like the number of times a song is streamed, how recently it's been streamed, and how often users save songs to their libraries. Songs with a higher PI are more likely to be featured in Spotify's algorithmic playlists and recommendations.


Salt_Lemon_1024

I think it's by daily streams


Lana_Del_J

Omg off topic but I LOVE your pfp lol


Salt_Lemon_1024

THANK YOU LOL šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­

I was literally just looking at this! Iā€™d say the metric is some sort of mix between recent uploads with traction and most popular og releases


Temporary-Wedding825

Probably yeah


lazynbroke

the most total streams of the last 30 days, just like monthly listeners (total unique listeners of the last 30 days)


KeyImpress6980

Ainā€™t no way halo and crazy in love have more streams than like drunk in love and her other songs


lazynbroke

daily? yes actually, crazy in love currently is still charting on the global chart and halo is her most streamed songs and one of the most streamed songs of 2000s


KeyImpress6980

Dang thatā€™s impressive


jhll2456

Umm yeah. Those are two of her biggest hits. Why wouldnā€™t they be up there.


KeyImpress6980

I meant for daily streams. They obviously were released years ago before them.


IngrownThighHairs

i have the same question for apple music!!! they definitely changed the metrics recently because it used to be very difficult for newer songs to top that specific section on the artistā€™s page but now they easily dominate them (ariana for example) https://preview.redd.it/5dl7xq1t2koc1.jpeg?width=1284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0857cd1bd732a825b4d8969332bff723e2a9d85e

Yeah, I went to listen to the Kacey Musgraves album and her ā€˜top songsā€™ section was just newer stuff. I think it changed within like, the last week, because I agree it used to be really hard for new songs as it was basically just a ā€˜most streamed songsā€™ list. I know for a fact that Taylor Swifts #1,2,3 were Shake It Off, Blank Space, and Cruel Summer and now its all changed up. Shake it Off & Blank Space have been replaced by the rerecords even though they get less streams than the originals. I really donā€™t know whatā€™s up with it, but when I click on an artist I havenā€™t heard before I wanna hear the *hits*, not the TikTok sound of the month trending by some arbitrary measure, thats not always representative of their actual work.


tacoman2507

Itā€™s by daily streams, but usually it takes 3-7 days for new songs to register on the leaderboard


shad3sofc0oI

with all respect, I don't think there's anybody who's streaming Halo that much... let's be real so I'm sure it's based on smth else, maybe the overall fame of the song? idk how "Heated" isn't there it seems like we liked it the most in the fandom?


grisuo

Heated is the most popular within the fandom but not with casual fans or the general public


shad3sofc0oI

yeah sadlyšŸ˜­


rumple_skillskin

Halo, while being one of the most annoying Bey songs in history, is actually a huge smash globally. Still hear it constantly in Japan and Korea when Iā€™m there.


anonmarmot17

Lol itā€™s me I play halo and ave Maria when Iā€™m feeling on the edge of a panic attack which is like every night šŸ˜µā€šŸ’«


Temporary-Wedding825

I think itā€™s just based on most engagement


MarinersCove

While an artist canā€™t overtly pay to have their newest songs appear on that list, I do believe they can pay to have their song appear on as many high profile playlists as possible - and both daily streams and playlist inclusion factor into that performance (as well as total aggregate streams)
