The star's smash hit single As It Was tops the year-end charts on Apple Music, Spotify and Deezer.
Harry Styles' introspective-but-gossipy pop smash As It Was has been named the UK's most-streamed song of 2022.
Styles has said the song is about "metamorphosis", as he reflects on loneliness, growing up and moving on.That would have earned the star and his co-writers about £1.5m in royalties.While Styles' hit was uniformly loved across the three streaming services, there was a huge divergence further down the chart.
Puerto Rican rapper Bad Bunny was the most-played artist overall on Spotify for the third year running, thanks largely to his Grammy-nominated double album Un Verano Sin Ti . "Yaaasss! It's an honour that people want to discover and hear our music," said the Scottish duo. "Thanks to everyone that supported us in 2022 - Big Love."The Official Charts will reveal the overall biggest songs of the year - tallying streams, downloads and physical sales - in January.
Fans will also be given a "listening personality" - that analyses their habits in categories such as "exploration vs familiarity" or "variety vs loyalty".Image source,Apple Music's Replay service shows listeners how long they spent listening to their favourite artists"It's always interesting to see who wants to share and who doesn't want to share," said Tom Connaughton, MD of Spotify for the UK.
