The Song Most Streamed By Aussies On Spotify In 2021

Spotify’s end-of-year wrap is already starting to consume social media.

On top of artists sharing their stats and fans bragging about their listening habits, the streaming giant has unveiled overall figures for the platform.

Topping the list of most-streamed songs in Australia is Heat Waves by Glass Animals, who last month announced a tour Down Under for next July to celebrate the album on which the hit features, Dreamland.

Local talent The Kid LAROI places twice in the Top 5, with Justin Bieber collab Stay at #3 and Without You at #5, while Olivia Rodrigo also scores two placings as Drivers License lands at #2 and Good 4 U claims #4.

The honour of the most-streamed album in Australia goes to Rodrigo’s Sour, followed by Ed Sheeran’s Equals, The Kid LAROI’s Fuck Love (Savage), Justin Bieber’s Justice and Dua Lipa’s Future Nostalgia.

As far as the most-streamed songs by local artists from Australian users, The Kid LAROI dominates, claiming #1 with Stay, #2 with Without You and #4 with So Done, while Masked Wolf lands at #3 with Astronaut In The Ocean and Tones & I rounds out the Top 5 with Fly Away.

Yesterday it was revealed that Astronaut In The Ocean was the most Shamazed song globally this year.

This year, Australians streamed Taylor Swift more than any other artist, followed by Justin Bieber, Drake, Ed Sheeran and The Kid LAROI, while the most-streamed local artists rank in order of The Kid LAROI, The Wiggles, Hilltop Hoods, AC/DC and Flume.

Zooming out of Australian users, The Kid LAROI’s Stay was the third most-streamed song globally, sitting behind Drivers License and Lil Nas X’s Montero (Call Me By Your Name).
