10 Billion Streams and Counting: Spotify Singles Celebrates Its Biggest Hits

Spotify Singles, our longest-running original recorded music franchise, has officially surpassed 10 billion collective streams worldwide. That’s a whole lot of listening, and a testament to the power of connecting artists with fans in exciting new ways, since the program launched in 2016.

Spotify Singles provides a unique platform for artists across genres to reimagine one of their existing tracks or pay homage to their musical heroes by covering a song of their choice. Recorded in Spotify’s state-of-the-art studios in New York City, Los Angeles, London, and Stockholm, these sessions have resulted in nearly 1,000 recordings from more than 750 artists in 45 markets. In addition to our own studios, Spotify Singles have been recorded in famous studio spaces around the world, including Abbey Road and Electric Lady Studios.

Further expanding our global reach, our Stockholm Studio is now officially open to artists across Europe. The studio had previously only hosted Nordic artists. Damiano David, who fronts the Italian rock band Måneskin, recently inaugurated the refreshed space with a fiery cover of “Nothing Breaks Like A Heart,” which has already amassed more than 6 million global streams.
