The Beatles are TIMELESS.
Hailed as one of the most important influences in rock and popular music, The Beatles’ music spans generations, even when the popular foursome broke up in 1970. So when The Beatles’ music was finally made available to streaming online on Christmas Eve, music fans all over the world rejoiced at this delightful Christmas present — so much that the Beatles’ songs were played 50 MILLION times in the first 48 hours since they were made available.
50. MILLION. TIMES. That’s a whole lot of people tuning in — and several murders of replay buttons.
Among the popular music streaming services, Spotify has had the most number of Fab Four fans tuning in, at 65 percent!
The most popular song being played? Come Together, at 1.84 million streams! This was followed by Let It Be at 1.55 million, while Hey Jude tailed behind at 1.32 million.
Contract disputes previously hindered The Beatles’ music from reaching the online platform.
What a time to be alive!
