Recently we asked on Facebook and Twitter for you to “go to your iTunes (or Spotify, last.fm, etc) and tell us your most listened to song.”
It was wonderful to see over one hundred songs mentioned and not one of them was a duplicate. There was such a great variety, and a lot of songs I personally had never heard before. I’m still going through and checking them all out.
I have highlighted our answers and some of yours. If you’d like to see them all check out the post on our Facebook page.
