My digital album collection. Because I like the idea of collecting vinyl records, but don’t actually care about vinyl records.
I have been using Spotify since my first stream at 1:08pm May 7, 2018, age 17. Prior to this I had meagre taste in music, an iPod Shuffle with songs pirated from YouTube, and a handful of paid songs on iTunes.
Given my data obsession, I track my precise lifetime Spotify listening history using stats.fm🔹. This is not readily available🔹 from Spotify’s own API.
I have always been intentional with my usage of Spotify so that these stats are accurate1. For example, I avoid sharing my account or leaving on music when I cannot actually hear it.
Most Listened
Sorted by time spent listening. Quantity.
If you’re curious, see more at stats.fm/krados.

Yes, I thought about these things even in 2018. I knew the data would always exist, even though I hadn’t bothered to figure out how or why to retrieve or use it yet. My first attempt at tracking was to use last.fm, but it was weirdly unreliable and didn’t support lifetime data import as far as I knew. ↩︎
