For those of you that are interested, the numbers definitely got bigger this year. Any guesses as to what the MOST streamed song was?

EDIT: Sixteen Tons was the MOST streamed song of 2023. Who knew?!

ZAYRAY!

House of the rising sun?

Tema Krempley

Happy to listen any time! My most listened to song this year was your version of House of the Rising Sun.

Alex Sage

Hmmmmm, yea no- I have no clue-, all of your songs are great.

Veronika Troll

Congratulations!! I'm guessing it's still Sixteen Tons But my most streamed song of the year is Till Then:)

Tema Krempley

And no idea what was the most listened to song. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Susanne Iden

Sixteen Tons or Misty Mountains

Rachel Blackthorne

I'd say the same as Zayray...House of the Rising Sun... Oh or...Sixteen Tons...lol

Cynthia Ross

Well, for me it was Til Then. But I’m going to guess 16 Tons or Sound Of Silence. I would go with Jack’s Lament but was too late an entry into this race.

J.L.

The most streamed song was the one with the most streams! =^,^=

Angie Woollard

Going with Sixteen Tons…though I See Fire is probably up there…

Jen Shymanski

Misty mountain gained a lot this year

Jen Fraley

Folsom Prison Blues or Big Bad John.

Jessica Lord

I've had Sixteen Tons pop up on multiple random shuffles, so that's my guess. 🤷‍♀️ Personally, my most played was Further on up the Road, and I'm more than okay with that!

Mikki Fullerton

Yay for bigger numbers, congrats! If I had to guess, I'd go with Sixteen Tons? I think Misty Mountains is doing better on YouTube, but hard to tell what might hit with different platforms...

Tine

I See Fire maybe or Misty Mountains? My top song was your 'Till Then' I played it 499 times this past year!!

J

sixteen Tons? But i have to admit Mine was Further on Up the Road

Keith Hartley

Gotta be misty mountains or sound of silence

Ellen Reiser

One more short and you’d have 1000 hours.

Filiz E

For me it was Shenandoah💙 but I'm guessing 16 Tons?

Tara Congo

Sixteen Tons is my guess. Congrats - those are amazing numbers!! Here's to an even bigger and better 2024 🥂

Elisabeth Schürmann

Wild guess cause I never have used Spotify… Sound of silence

Victoria

I See Fire I bet! Proud to have added to those numbers quite a bit hehe!

Celia

Sixteen tons

Jeanette Pencz

🤔 I see Fire or Further up on the road?

Janet Towles

Well, I'm on Amazon Music, which I don't recommend, but it shows your top songs there, and 16 Tons has been on top the entire time, so I am going to guess the same for Spotify. Also, don't we still have all of December to go? 🤣 ETA: and CONGRATS on the growth, you deserve it!

Jordi S

I see Fire?

Dominique

Saddle up?!?!?! It’s the best! With a Layne cameo? Of course!🤩

María Gabriela

I rocked the hell out of Folsom Prison Blues. Also, I bet it's Sixteen Tons.

MJ

All of them

Victoria

Eeeeeeee! I just watched mine and got the Voiceplay thank you video!!!! OMG! Year made! Thanks x

Sarah Borzelli

'Misty Mountain Cold' I'd guess. If it was me it would be 'Further on up the road'. Congratulations on the amazing numbers! Well deserved!

Karin Wolf

I see fire... but MY personal number one is Way down... so funny, witty & well done!

Sarah Reach

Well, Saddle Up was my 5th most listened to song...

Gillian Drysdale

congratulations you deserve all the views ❤️

Karin Wolf

Just watched that one... funny EVERY single time! 🤣

Randiskye

So my listening paid off, I see! 😁 Wrapped has me being in the top 0.05% of listeners to your music this year. You're welcome! And that thank you you recorded was very nice.

Diane Holland

I would like to say Jack's Lament. I know it just came out, but it is one of my favorite songs. My next guess would be sixteen tons or ghost rider.

Shirley B Karr

Misty Mountains. Not because it's way better than Way Down (it's not!) but because that one gets the most YT views. I use YT rather than Spotify, and the song I listen to the most is probably Ghost Riders. There's just something about the Yippee-i-o chorus that gives me a dopamine hit. Every. Single. Time.

Tigsa

My two personal favorites are Jack's Lament and Way Down. Probably 16 Tons or Misty Mountain, I'd guess.

Lois McCray

The Bare Necessities. I'll guess 16 Tons or Far Over The Misty Mountains Cold. I don't have a music service 😭.

Karen & Lauren

I don't stream, but that's wicked amazing. (I am semi- old school. I buy cds. I pay for downloads in addition to the mp3 download perks.)

Alexander Hiske

Misty mountains had to be the highest viewed

Tine

It's been quite a year for you. It was incredible to see your monthly listeners rise when you released Jack's Lament. Too bad these people didn't stick around

Melissa Elliott

The ones I have streamed the most are Sound of Silence and Way Down, but I am guessing 16 Tons for overall.

Michelle and Quincy

That’s very Haunted Mansion-ish : 999 hours : 999 rooms

Tine

Will you let us know what is the right answer? I'm madly curious actually

Cara Zylla-Paterson

Me too! VoicePlay #1 with Geoff a close second. Interestingly, Rachel Potter was 4th, even though I probably only listened to her as a VoicePlay featured artist.

Alec Hentschel

I'm guessing it is Jack's Lament even tho it is the newest one

Agnes EvaR

Congratulations! My guess is Misty Mountains Cold.

Cloudy Skies

My first thought was 16 tons, but Spotify users are mostly younger, so maybe not. Perhaps Misty Mountains or Valhalla Calling. Only, as has been pointed out, Valhalla is Voiceplay not Geoff. Silly me.. So, maybe Sound of Silence.

Samuel Siggelow

House of the Rising sun? I only say that because that was my number 1 song this year🤣

Cara Zylla-Paterson

I was going to go out on a limb and say Shenandoah, but apparently that didn't even make the top 10 of Geoff's most popular songs. I won't spoil it, but his top song beat his second most popular song by more than double the number of streams.

Crisstina Joubert

Those are Incredible numbers, Congratulations!!! I see fire❤️‍🔥

Anja Eder

So according to my Spotify yearly list, I listened to "Sound of Silence" in 1970, closely followed by "Ghost Riders" and "Man of Constant Sorrow"....hmmmm...what a wonderful one musical year!!! thank you very much Geoff!!!!! You are - for me- the best singer !!!!!

Jim Dalton

I found you when searching for Misty Mountains, so I'm going to guess that :)

Kerry green

Jack's Lament. I know I keep watching it.

doug muchow

It’s impossible to pick just one as they were all very, very good

Maryse B

BRAVO!!! Very Happy for you.

Rebecca Hendricks

I would guess Sound of Silence. I have listened to that COUNTLESS times already!

Mardette

Happy to hear that you've had a good year.

Frances Smith

Too many to choose from. Personally, I play Ghostriders the most. Then Sound of Silence and High and Dry. Though I do YouTube.

Jacky Friedman

Sixteen Tons or Misty Mountains. And congratulations 👏🎉

Margaret Tassey

Country Roads. Going by the picture you used. Happy holidays.

Deborah Krach

So happy for you. I love all of your songs so I wouldn't know which one to pick.

Ann Durham

There were a lot of counts for "I See Fire" from me. But I'm guessing "Ghost Riders."

Grace Files

Sound of Silence is my guess. Those numbers are amazing, I am so happy for you❤️

Karen Grace

1.6 Million listeners! Awesome! I'm proud to say I'm one. I bought a paid account this year so No Interruptions! LOL. It makes listening to you guys more even more fun.

Dawn Wilson

Congratulations! I love Sound of Silence & my husband loves 16 tons :)

Silv E

So you need somebody to listen for another 800 hours? I gotchu!

Dan Black

Only 800 more hours to get to 1M? Is it too late -- are those the final numbers?

SunnyOutlook

Congratulations and Happy Holidays! My guess would be Sixteen Tons. Who can resist four Geoffs in a tank top with such an amazing voice?

Amanda Hovendon

For me and for this season is Mele Kalikimaka.😀😀😀

Cécile Roussey

The most popular song is Misty Mountains Cold... I really like this song, it rocks me and soothes me... and it’s a very beautiful song with a very beautiful harmony... With vocalise behind her it’s super beautiful! Otherwise there’s Sixteen Tons that aired the most as well as I See Fire that aired in less than a month of 1 M... Geoff, I remember that song you made a short story saying it was huge in a month ^^ If not all my congratulations for what you do ^^ Really! And I wish you a very good Christmas to you and your family with a lot of love around you and your family ^^

LaRae

Congratulations! Great numbers! And thanks for a year of great music and all the hard work you do to bring it to us. My number one is Ain’t no Sunshine, but I doubt that’s Spotify’s number one.

Donate Zechiel

And now??? Give an answer, Goeff - please

Gillian Drysdale

keep on doing what you’re doing Geoff please!

MJ

MY FAVORITE SONG

Filiz E

Well it is a good song! and you made it great💙💙 and I guessed it right🎉🎉 and I was just listening to it🎶🎶

Paula Jordan

I know I streamed it 50 times.

Karen & Lauren

Valhalla Calling would be on VoicePlay's, not Geoff's. 😉

Melissa Struxness

Was that put out in 2023??? Well then I would have definitely guessed that song.

Melissa Struxness

They had a live show in Chicago and I just bet VoicePlay will put out a Christmas song but we will have to wait for Geoff sadly. I could be wrong...I hope I am wrong

Mikki Fullerton

Well, we didn't KNOW per se, but I don't think there's a whole lot of folks that are very surprised...

Debs Badger

No, it was put out in 2021.

Melissa Struxness

I thought so. . . Is he going by the year or in total? Because I thought by the year. . .

Debs Badger

The Spotify Wrapped is generated by Spotify for the calendar year, in this case, 2023. So "Sixteen Tons" continues to be his top streaming song, even after being out for 2 years (almost 3, since it was out in Jan-2021).

Gaisha Ziapour Edwards

I am so grateful that I can be a little part of your journey, love your work, and love your voice..wish you health, happiness and success always. 🌻

Cécile Roussey

Hello ! ^^ No I did not know... however, I discovered it in 2023 since I am a fan of you since February/ March ! ^^ I like this song ^^

Jody Patterson

I was reading an ebook that included a "company store," and Google in its infinite nosiness dropped your version of "Sixteen Tons" into my feed. I loved it. Thus began my journey with you. And my multiple streamings of it definitely added to its popularity score. Thank you, Geoff, for sharing your talent.

Lutra2732

I guessed correctly 😌

Susanne Iden

So, I was right? How could this have happened 😁

Frances Smith

I was looking for Tennessee Ernie Ford’s version on YouTube and yours popped up. Then Ghostriders… and have been down the rabbit hole of your and Voiceplay’s music ever since.

Melissa Struxness

Ok I get it. Wow yeah that song is amazing. I don’t use Spotify just YouTube to listen to music

Cloudy Skies

Ooopsie. But of course! Tired old brain. I'll edit.

Karen Grace

No idea how that happened. 😉 Couldn't have anything to do with you looking all sexy in your tank top belting out all those luscious low low notes, could it? Seriously. That is one of my favorites. I always loved that song by Tennessee Earnie Ford and you made it even better. I've lost track of how many times I've played it.

Cynthia Ross

No surprise. You look absolutely fantastic in that white shirt. The music is good too. 😏

Tine

So interesting that Sixteen Tons remains so popular. How great that you decided to do that song the way you did. it is a very good one!

TheNightShiftDragon

Well, Sixteen ton is like a gateway drug to acapella. That song is so brilliant, it has you wondering what else you've been missing out on, and off you go searching! I should know, thats how I became a patreon for Geoff and Voiceplay 😆

Angela Scheiber

Well at this point it's a classic, and yeah, I too listen to it often and exactly know why it's so popular.

Shirley B Karr

I'm not surprised -- 16 Tons is a fabulous song, with the visual or audio-only. Hours after Spotify sent out their lists, YouTube sent theirs. My Top 4 groups were Geoff, VoicePlay, Home Free, and The Bass Gang. (No surprise -- I'm guessing there's a lot of crossover in those fandoms. I like deep voices and I cannot lie.) My Top 5 songs were Ghost Riders, Oogie Boogie's Song, and three other Geoff solos. Puts me in the top .04% of Geoff's listeners.

Nic

Curious on Geoff's personal streaming factoids. What was your most played track or top 5? 👂🍬

Randiskye

Remember this and be sure to ask it on his next Chaturday!

Nic

I need a Chatuesday. 🙃

Maria Stoycheva

Not sure about acapella but most certainly a gateway drug to Geoff. I've attracted half a dozen people to Geoff and VP by sending them this song :D

Crysti Jones

I listen to 16 tons all the time

Jamie Marcus

My guess is my favorite 🙂 high and dry

doug muchow

I like all your songs, but so far, for me, it would be “House Of The Rising Sun,” or “Ain’t No Sunshine!!”

Jessica Lord

Something tells me Sixteen Tons is no longer the most streamed song, or at least not the most played across all platforms (now that AIWFCIY is out), lol

Cécile Roussey

Dear Geoff, This year 2023 has been a magical year with you... I look at you every day, you calm me with your sweet and beautiful voice and the bass voice that is nice to hear too... And to be here, to be a patron... frankly it’s too great! I don’t regret And also something to add: when I was in a very important crisis of my Tourette syndrome, I watch your videos and I sing at the same time with subtitles... and little by little it soothes me and then I feel calm... Unfortunately, I am not good in English and I do not remember everything I learned at school because I was seriously mentally ill, I had hallucinations... I had to relearn everything, the basics of life: to eat, wash, go to the toilet, sleep and dress... I had to relearn to go out too... I had to learn to take the bus, tram etc... in short! That’s why I forgot everything I learned in school because of this delirium that caused me to sequelae... And if I dive to remember my studies, it makes me have seizures... so I can’t learn... and I want to remember... I suffer a lot and I am ashamed because your fans here are good in English, can understand what you say like Chaturday and it hurts me... Sorry! On the other hand what is great is that thanks to your songs and subtitles in French, I learn English little by little... Although I am hypermemory... dates, situations and details of my memories... it would be nice to be hypermemory in English because it is a language that everyone learns... Whereas before I was very good in English... fortunately there are subtitles where there is the translation of my language... That’s why I have a translator on my computer that can be a headache for me because it makes me weird sentences and I spend a lot of time correcting... Otherwise, I do not regret to be a patron... <3 Thank you very much, Geoff ^^ And Merry Christmas and be surrounded by love... <3

Mollie Marie

hey geoff! i have a song request for either you or voiceplay to cover! nancy mulligan by ed sheeran! the bass, i think will match your tone of voice perfectly! sincerly mollie
