Methodology
This page provides you with up to date lists of the most streamed studio albums, per year, per decade and of all-time, on Spotify.
Singles that have been issued before the start of the selected period are thus included in full.
In case several versions of the same album exist, the one with the highest total of streams is displayed.
The column EAS stands for Equivalent Album Sales. It reflects the worth of these audio streams on par with album units. This data extrapolates remaining streaming platforms.
Hey! please add Dancing With the devil… The Art Of Starting Over from Demi Lovato, Who have a standard and bônus track edition. love u gays!

Hey. I love this new tool. Great Job. I noticed at the 2010 list that Speak Now has not the deluxe version listed but the normal one. Can you fix it?
Taylor Swift’s Speak Now is Absent from the 2010 list…. it should be at #11
Hello, could you add “Speak Now” by Taylor Swift in the 2010? This album have almost 1billion streams
One thing I noticed, quite a lot of albums have incorrectly inflated totals, due to those totals being taken from deluxe, super deluxe, remastered etc versions, which quite often have tracks which were not originally on or part of the original album. Just looking at two examples; Elton Johns Goodbye Yellow Brick Road gains 168,603,330 extra streams from tracks such as Step Into Christmas and PInball Wizard Guns N Roses Appetite For Destruction gains 257,736,773 extra streams from tracks such as Patience and Used To Love Her On another note, Men At Works, The Works at #7 in 1987, is… Read more »
Thanks Martin for pointing them out! I tried to avoid these kind of releases, but irocanically for albums I know well I end up scrolling to fast and missing that a song that shouldn’t be there is indeed included. I fixed all the issues you mentioned (will be OK on tonight’s batch), keep them coming!
I suppose there is the other issue of albums like those of Led Zeppelin, which include demos etc of songs that are actually on the original album and would be counted towards its overall streaming totals, against albums like Let It Be, Paranoid and DSOM that just have their original tracks counted.
for 1984 make it big by wham! should be included but careless whisper is counted separately to it so it doest show
thanks for adding it! but on George Michael’s page Careless Whisper has well over 300 million streams compared to the 17 million showing up
also songs from the chair is a 1985 album but is showing up in 1984
This is fixed for Songs…, about Make It Big this is the version that belongs to it, the one with 17m streams. Some artists suffer from these multi-versions songs, Madonna and Michael Jackson are good examples of artists with strong versions outside of the original album!
Can you please show streams on mobile
