Whether you’re looking to listen to your favorite songs on Spotify, or you’re just looking to check out what everyone else is listening to, there are a few things to keep in mind. One of the most important things to remember is that the list of the top songs of 2018 is not a definitive list. This is because each song has different popularity and it is difficult to predict which song will be the top of the list. That is why it is always a good idea to do some research.
Ariana Grande
Throughout her music career, Ariana Grande has been consistently released hits and has monopolized the top three spots on the Billboard Hot 100. In fact, Grande has earned several Billboard chart records. For example, she is the only artist to have three #1 duets on the Hot 100, the only female artist to have five number-one debuts, and the only artist to simultaneously rank three songs in the top 10 on US Pop Radio.
After releasing her debut album, Yours Truly, Grande went on to release her sophomore and third studio albums, Dangerous Woman and Thank U, Next. The two albums received five nominations each for Album of the Year. Both of these albums were primarily pop and R&B. They reflect the personal struggles and issues of Grande.
The title track “Thank U, Next” was Ariana Grande’s biggest hit to date. It received 220 million streams alone, and it contributed to Grande’s three billion global streams in 2018. It also broke the YouTube video streaming record.
The lyrics on Thank U, Next focus on love, pain, and weirdness. It’s been described as Grande’s most personal record. She wrote it in the midst of her personal struggles. In fact, it was inspired by the time she spent with her ex, Jai Brooks, during their breakup.
After a breakup in August 2013, Grande and Brooks rekindled their relationship and went on to date for another year. They were then separated again. However, they were finally able to reconcile in late 2013. The two were engaged in December 2012, and their wedding post has garnered 25 million likes.
When Grande was 14, she co-founded a youth singing group called Kids Who Care in South Florida. The group performed for charitable fund-raising events. They raised over $500,000.
In the summer of 2009, Grande traveled to Gugulethu, South Africa to teach children how to sing. She also taught them dance.
BTS
Despite their recent hiatus, K-pop sensations BTS enjoyed plenty of global listening. Their latest single, “Dynamite,” topped the Spotify Global Top 50 chart on Friday. They’ve also reached a new milestone as they became the first Asian artist to reach five billion streams.
The group also released a special Spotify playlist just for fans. It features 50 songs that represent all their major hits, plus 50 new tracks.
In addition to the official tracks, BTS fans can discover unofficial tracks on various music platforms, including YouTube, Korean music sites, and blogs. This includes BTS’s fan-made videos, as well as the group’s own unofficial music video for their track “Memory.”
The most interesting part of the wrapped campaign is that it shows you a number of the most streamed songs of 2018. The most streamed song of the year was “The Middle” by Zedd, Marjory and Grey. The most streamed song of the year may have been “Fake Love” by BTS.
The most streamed song of the year also happens to be the most famous. In terms of statistics, it was the most streamed of the three songs to reach the top of the chart, and it was the first K-pop group to hit that mark. It’s hard to say if these numbers are actually as good as pure sales.
Aside from the big five, the most popular songs of the year included “IDGAF” by Dua Lipa, and “Mundo” by IV of Spades. Other notable songs include “Scorpion” by Canadian R&B artist Drake, “Tagpuan” by Moira Del Torre, and “Molly” by Post Malone.
The most streamed song of 2018 was not by BTS. In fact, it was the most streamed song of all time.
Drake
Earlier this week, music streaming platform Spotify released its “Wrapped” report, which measures top artists on its platform. It calculates the top performers and songs of the year to determine trends in the industry. In 2018, Drake became the most streamed artist in the world. He earned 8.2 billion streams this year.
This is the fourth year in a row that Drake has held the top spot on Spotify’s list of most streamed artists. His “Scorpion” album was the most streamed of all time. It was also the most streamed album of the year.
Drake’s song, God’s Plan, was the most streamed of 2018. It has been streamed more than a billion times worldwide, making it the most streamed song of 2018.
He has more than 50 billion streams globally, including eight billion on Spotify. In addition, he has over 130 Top 100 hits on the Official Singles Chart. His two biggest hit songs, “God’s Plan” and “Scorpion,” have over 200 million streams each.
“Scorpion” was the most streamed album of the year on Apple Music as well. The album broke a one-week streaming record. It was streamed 10 million times per hour during the weekend of its release.

Justin Bieber
Besides being one of the world’s biggest artists, Justin Bieber is also one of the world’s most streamed artists. In fact, “Stay” is the fastest song to hit 1 billion streams on Spotify. It’s only the second track by an artist to reach the billion-plus mark and the first song by an artist from this decade.
It’s also one of the biggest songs of all time on the Billboard chart. It’s certified Diamond in the US, which means it’s one of the highest-selling songs of all time. It’s also a number 239 on the all-time Billboard chart, making it the only song from this decade to make the list.

Ed Sheeran

Ed Sheeran has had massive success in the UK, with his singles reaching number one. He’s won the Brit Award for Best British Male Solo Artist, and his album was named the second best-selling album in the world.
Despite being a global superstar, Sheeran doesn’t spend a lot of money. His songs are all vague and well-crafted, and they often have a cinematic quality. His songs are great for funerals and first dances, and his songs often unify people. He has collaborated with many other singers, including Khalid, Camila Cabello, and Justin Bieber. He’s made a name for himself on the Billboard Hot 100 and the US singles chart.
He also won two Grammy awards for the song “Thinking Out Loud” in 2016. It’s a testament to his talent that he’s become one of the world’s biggest recording artists. His bank account is estimated at hundreds of millions of dollars. He’s also been a contender on Time’s 100 Most Influential People list.
While he’s had a couple of hit singles, the biggest of all is ‘Shape of You’. It’s the most streamed song on the service, and it has spent more weeks in the top 10 than any other song. It has received more than three billion streams, and it’s only been a year since it was released.
‘Shape of You’ also debuted at number one in over 34 countries. It’s been the best-performing song on the US charts for the past four months, and it has reached more than a million paid-for sales.
