But that’s just one song that holds the record. What’s the average? Probably significantly lower given the sheer volume of music available.

Aaaaand I’m having a hard time sourcing accurate statistics. Unfortunate, it seemed like a fun exercise in math.

@killyourfm ok so let’s math this out, because 12000 sounds like a big number, but we all know journalism isn’t what it used to be, and big numbers get used to bamboozle people.

The #1 most listened to song on Spotify has 3.8 billion listens. According to Wikipedia.

That’s a big number.
3800000000. How many tshirts is that? 3.8 billion / 12 thousand = 316666.67. I have no idea what a band tshirt is worth. Last time I was at a concert they were $80 but that seemed high.
