Top Ten Most Played of the Year - 2020

[tim]

This completes the fifth year for this thread and I'd again like to thank everyone who has continued to participate along the way! Much like I have done in years past, the top ten below is tabulated using Last.fm with a calendar year of December 1st, 2019 - November 30th, 2020, however, some of you like to wait until the year has ended to post your lists so either way works fine. Also last year some of you used the data provided from Spotify Wrapped and Apple Replay which I expect to start seeing those pop up within a week or so. I hope everyone has a great holiday and a very Happy New Year where I'll pick this back up with the Top Ten Most Played of the month beginning in 2021!

2 ~ Linkin Park (not Country but they are my #2 lol)
1 ~ Kip Moore

A little surprised by both my Top 10 and top 5. Didn't realize I had listened to that much of Reba for her to make my Top 5. Surprised that Brothers Osborne didn't make either list. "Just Friends" from Caylee Hammack is nowhere to be seen on my Top 100 songs on Spotify (my main way of listening to music). She is at #12 with "Family Tree". This was a good year for Country and I'm excited to see what 2021 brings!

Funnily enough Kip Moore had my most played Country song last year as well ("Bittersweet Company").
