Who was the most-streamed singer on your Spotify playlist for last year? According to the online music giant, the King of Mando-pop Jay Chou was once again the most-streamed act in Taiwan, topping the annual music chart for three consecutive years. Global K-pop sensation BTS took the second spot, while Canada’s Justin Bieber came third.
The most-streamed songs for last year included “Your Name Engraved Herein” by singer Crowd Lu, “Oh Love, You Are Much Greater Than I Imagined” by rock band EggPlantEgg, and “Where I Lost Us” by rock band Accusefive. All three were theme songs from a blockbuster film or a TV drama. Rapper E.SO’s first solo album ”Outta Body” was the most-streamed album.
As for the category of Podcast — a blend of “iPod” and “broadcast” — “Gooaye,” a show about stock market investment, replaced “Bailingguo News” to top the playlist on Spotify. The two were followed by “Froggy,” hosted by YouTuber-turned-Taipei City Councilor Chiu Wei-chieh, better known as Froggy.
