No idea actually!

It's doing well today, 19k streams

[!Lawi!]

I feel like it'll do better than Nonfiction! This is such an exciting time to follow her!

[Sky High]

I think so too.

[Evan Odinson]

UPDATE

NUMBER OF FOLLOWERS: 694,053k
TOTAL STREAMS: 206,443,256M

Boys & Girls is just 160K streams away from 10M
Ohia no Ki is about 10K from 1M followed really close by SCAR
Haru yo Koi hit 700K streams
Nonfiction currently has 267K and is getting close to enter her TOP100
Summer Again has 43K

Has anyone else noticed independent+ is all weird on Spotify? On RAINBOW, track fifteen is independent+ (track and bonus track), but then track sixteen is + again, except it fades out well before the end. I wish they'd separate them.properly.

I'd also been wondering how Spotify treats the same tracks across different albums; I'm not sure it collates these (so listening to a song on the album first and then to a single release may not count toward the same stats). I'm suggesting this because in my own personal Spotify stats I have fairyland twice, once in third place (with the (miss)understood cover) and once in eighteenth place (with the single cover). Same for Days (single at 22 and album at 48).

Some tracks have the playcounts unified, but others count separately. I think it's up to avex to resolve that.

SCAR and Ohia no Ki recently hit 1M streams, the later being her most recent work to hit this milestone.

Nonfiction is getting closer to enter her TOP100.

STEP you recently hit 2M streams and CAROLS is pretty close to do the same.

Boys & Girls is really close to finally hit 10M.

*plays CAROLS obsessively*

Do you see any distinction, like, which exact tracks count towarfs these numbers? Does it matter if I play CAROLS off the single or off MY STORY?

If it is exactly the same track it counts as one song on spotify - if it is tagged as a different version not

[sxesven]

Yes, I know, I was just curious if Evan can see which exact one is the one approaching 2M

[Evan Odinson]

Hi there @sxesven I checked and CAROLS is one of those weird cases where every version streams are unified! (Single, MY STORY, A BEST2 BLACK, A COMPLETE and A BALLADS 2 count are unified so it all goes to its total stream count!)

It should be this way but honestly Avex didn't do a proper job with this, for example as I said CAROLS' every version is unified, even those with different tittles (A COMPLETE VERSION - A BALLADS 2 VERSION) and other tracks with the exact same title and track tag aren't unified, Boys & Girls from A BEST has the biggest total counts and shares its streams with some versions from other compilatory releases but the LOVEppears version (exactly same tittle track) has its own total count with barely 200K streams, which is also different from the LOVEppears 20th anniversary edition. Honestly I think they should sit and check all that because there's so many tracks that technically should have way higher streams if their streams count were unified but we're talking about Avex here so I wouldn't expect much lol

[sxesven]

Thanks for checking that, I really appreciate it!

You'd think Avex could get some intern to spend a day to fix this sort of stuff but indeed we should probably not get our hopes up.

I'd literally volunteer and do it for free but such small details are either being worryingly clumsy for such a big company or they simply don't care.

I've been meaning to ask for a while, as I'm very curious: do you check the stream count for each song manually on the app, or do you use coding to pull all the numbers automatically? If you don't mind sharing your methods, of course!

I do check manually certain streams counts to compare if they're unified or not but I mostly use ChartMaster! you have subscribe tho but I think there's some free trials as well, it has different tools but mostly I use it to check her number of followers, total streams, each songs streams and also I can check her each album total count

I wish they updated her artist profile picture. I'm tired of seeing the not so flattering 21st anniversary DVD cover photo all over Spotify for three years now..
