As a Christmas Eve present to the world, the entire catalogue of The Beatles’ music was finally made available on streaming services. This marked the end of a long streaming boycott, with fans finally allowed to enjoy the awesome foursome’s music on Spotify, Pandora and more.
Spotify has now released data about just how much Beatles we’re streaming, which songs we love the most, and how old their fans are.
The data revealed that Come Together is the most streamed track overall, however, this differs when you look at the specific age groups. Those aged 17 and under have so far streamed Here Comes The Sun the most, while those in their late teens to late 20’s jammed to I Wanna Hold Your Hand. Older generations, however, seemed to enjoy some of the lesser known hits, with Rock And Roll Music topping the list for those aged 55 and over. Interestingly, according to the data, the age group with whom The Beatles were most popular with were aged 25-34 years.
