What artists do you listen to the most?

Two Spirit · 04-11-2014, 01:28 AM

I have over sixty purchased albums in my iTunes library and I love statistics, so one thing I do about one time per month is go to each artist and add up all the play counts of songs from each of them. It gives me an interesting look at what artists I've listened to the most.

I only included artists that I own at least one album from. There's many others where I own a few singles, but it would take me forever to list them all.

You guys don't have to add up all your plays, but I am curious what artists you listen to the most.

So to give you guys a glimpse into my music tastes, here's my most listened to list:

1. Eisbrecher - 10,066

2. The Classic Crime - 5,425

3. Five Finger Death Punch - 4,735

4. Lady Gaga - 3,677

5. Red - 2,419

6. Linkin Park - 1,995

7. Marilyn Manson - 1,322

8. Metallica - 1,309

9. Limp Bizkit - 1,222

10. Skrillex - 998

11. Staind - 891

12. Oomph! - 841

13. Volbeat - 786

14. Ellie Goulding - 635

15. Madonna - 595

16. Macklemore - 592

17. Orgy - 524

18. Evanescence - 493

19. Bruno Mars - 482

20. Machine Head - 457

21. Excision - 420

22. Otep - 371

23. Eminem - 339

24. Gordon Lightfoot - 327

25. Adele - 224

26. Manafest - 141

27. Usher - 115

28. Lorde - 101

29. James Horner - 70

30. Underoath - 67

31. Children 18:3 - 59

32. Michael Jackson - 45

A little overkill, I know, but I thought I would share my musical tastes with play count statistics since I'm still relatively new.

So what artists do you guys like to listen to and which ones have you played the most?

The fact that Limp Bizkit is on 9 in your list frightens me.
edit: I think I listen the most to The Flatliners, Streetlight Manifesto and The Wonderyears. Simply because of all three have an album that I've listened listened to a ****load of times because I love to sing the songs.

I use Rhapsody so I don't have the same statistic options, but my 'high volume' has the following artists right now:

Iced Earth
Frank Zappa
Paco de Lucia
Cathedral
Ravi Shankar
Uriah Heep
Candlemass
Aarni
Ayreon
Absu
Jex Thoth
