Lady Gaga Tops Last.FM Listens
By MusicRooms on 17/12/2009
Lady Gaga is the most popular artist of 2009, according to Last.fm, who saw the singer wrack up just under 18.5 million track plays by just over 755,000 of its users since the start of the year.
In terms of track plays, she easily saw off her main rivals, The Killers, who came in at number two with just under 12.5 million plays, although those came from over 1.2 million listeners, which is either good for them because more people wanted to listen to them, or bad because fewer people wanted to listen to them repeatedly.
Here's the top ten in full:
Artist (track plays/listeners)
1. Lady Gaga (18.5m/755k)
2. The Killers (12.5m/1.2m)
3. Lily Allen (10.5m/645k)
4. The Prodigy (8.9m/550k)
5. Franz Ferdinand (8.8m/930k)
