Spotify released its list of the most streamed artists and songs in 2012. As expected the list is filled with chart toppers and guilty pleasures with the possible exception of M83's "Midnight City."
Spotify's Most Streamed Songs Of 2012 (Global):
10. Nicki Minaj - "Starships"
9. The Wanted - "Glad You Came"
8. M83 - "Midnight City"
7. Flo Rida featuring Sia - "Wild Ones"
6. One Direction - "What Makes You Beautiful"
5. Maroon 5 featuring Wiz Khalifa - "Payphone"
4. Fun. - "Some Nights"
3. Carly Rae Jepsen - "Call Me Maybe"
2. Fun. featuring Janelle Monae - "We Are Young"
1. Gotye featuring Kimbra - "Somebody That I Used To Know"
Despite the list being released with a month left in the year, it's hard to imagine any song surpassing Gotye's "Somebody That I Used to Know." Although Gotye had the most streamed song of 2012, he was not actually the most streamed male artist. Instead, electronic producer David Guetta took that distinction. Rihanna was the most streamed female artist.
