Harry Styles' hit 'As It Was' has been named Spotify's most streamed song of 2022.
The former One Direction star finds himself at the top of the streaming platform's rankings for listeners around the world, with his huge hit hitting close to 1.6 billion global streams.
Spotify has unveiled its 2022 Wrapped campaign, and revealed its own stats for the top artists, songs, albums and podcasts.
As well as topping the songs list, Harry found himself seventh in the rankings for top artists globally, with Bad Bunny ruling the roost for a record breaking the third year in a row with more than 18 billion streams.
Bad Bunny's album 'Un Verano Sin Ti' tops the albums list just ahead of 'Harry's House', while the former has three tracks in the songs list.
Meanwhile, 'Anti-Hero' hitmaker Taylor Swift is in second place for the global artist list, while she's topping the charts for listeners in the UK.
Her new album 'Midnights' - which dropped last month - helped propel her to 805 million streams in the UK alone, with Drake, Ed Sheeran, Harry and Kanye West making up the rest of the UK's top 5 artists.
Globally, Bad Bunny and Taylor are followed by Drake, The Weekend BTS, with Ed Sheeran and Harry just missing out in sixth and seventh place.
There are also plenty of love for new releases, with the UK's top five albums all current releases, while Olivia Rodrigo’s 'Sour' the only one over 18 months old.
