The Weeknd’s 2019 hit single Blinding Lights continues to reign supreme as Spotify’s top-grossing song of 2022. Inspiring a TikTok dance craze during lockdown, the 80s-tinged track is the fastest in Spotify history to reach three billion streams, potentially earning the Canadian artist a whopping $13,580,171 from royalties.

Cashing in around four million fewer, The Kid LAROI and Justin Bieber’s Stay comes in second with an estimated royalty earning of $9,300,077. Clocking over 2.24 billion plays to date, the Australian rapper’s first chart-topper has been listened to for over 10,000 years collectively on Spotify!

Capturing the third spot is Glass Animal’s Heat Waves which became an earworm thanks to a slowed-down version of the song that went viral on TikTok – potentially generating $8,856,951 in royalty earnings off of a staggering 2.13 billion streams.

Taking fourth place with an estimated haul of $8,377,089 is Harry Styles’ 2019 single Watermelon Sugar. The singer’s biggest hit As It Was – released only this year – sits at the seventh spot ($6,645,628) amassing an impressive 1.6 billion plays so far.
