Since more than a decade, David Guetta‘s reputation is growing year after year and he is today one of the most famous DJ worldwide. Are his streaming numbers bigger than those of his colleagues Calvin Harris or The Chainsmokers? Does he follow the classic pattern of DJs, namely very big hits and unknown album tracks?
Dido is back! I can already hear many teenagers asking “Dido who?”. For people like me who are old enough to have been listening to music at the start of the 00s though, Dido was almost as inevitable as Adele has been recently.

Less than 3 weeks before the release of Still On My Mind, her 5th album, let’s review streaming results of the British singer Dido, an icon of the 00s. What’s on top, Thank You, Here With Me, Stan, White Flag? Place your bet!

From the Four Horsemen to the Metal Kings, the road has been very long for rock legends Metallica. Currently in the final phase of their 159-dates WorldWired Tour, the band proved with their last album Hardwired… to Self-Destruct that they remain hugely popular. Let’s review their impressive numbers from the very start up to date.
Panic! at the Disco started off big in the US with their 2003 debut A Fever You Can’t Sweat Out, but never managed repeat the success or reaching other markets with their next albums. Ironcially, 15 years into their career with all members gone except lead singer Brendon Urie did the “band” manage to get a global hit with High Hopes ! But how many streaming units is their entire catalog worth?
Selling a million album is something, no matter if we talk about pure album sales or converted singles formats. It takes a lot of success to get there. Climbing all the way to 10 million is all the more difficult while hitting 100 million is some kind of a legendary achievement. The last artist to do so? Britney Spears who debuted way back in 1998. Thanks to strong ongoing sales, several 00s artists are now on their way to get there too. Rihanna, Coldplay, Adele, Taylor Swift, Beyoncé, they are all contenders to reach 9 digits sales. Who will do it first though? Also, can younger artists like Ed Sheeran, Justin Bieber, and Drake be dark horses and top them all?
James Blunt had everything for you to love him or hate him. Excessive radio play, easy love-themed songs and weird nasal voice in a side, soulful singing, relentless melodies and cleverly written lyrics in the other. In 2005/2006, this explosive mix made him both the biggest seller in the world and the most bashed singer of that time.
Depending on where you sit on Earth, you will think of James Blunt as a complete has-been or a consistent hit maker. What’s safe to say is that all of you know You’re Beautiful. What do streaming numbers have to say though?
