With December right around the corner, we're getting to that time when everyone & anyone is going to hit us with a ton of stats telling us all of the things that we loved watching and listening to over the past year. And that's exactly what Spotify did earlier today, with Spotify Wrapped 2023 offering a rundown of the "Top Global Artists of 2023," "Top Global Songs of 2023," "Top Global Albums of 2023," and "Top Global Podcasts of 2023" among the 574 million listeners around the world over the past year (along with a look what was trending in the U.S. over the past year). While there's a whole lot to celebrate in the trends you're about to see for a number of musical artists and podcasters, it's clear that Taylor Swift and Joe Rogan are still reigning at the top of their respective mountains.

Here's a look at Spotify honoring Swift as Global Top Artist of the Year, followed by a rundown of the top songs, artists, albums & podcasts from over the past year – on both the global scale as well as how things trended in the U.S.:

Reimagined rereleases, record-breaking world tours, and colorful friendship bracelets—fans everywhere will be thrilled to see Taylor Swift as this year's top artist, with more than 26.1 billion global streams since January 1. Taking second place was reggaeton superstar Bad Bunny, who also had a standout year with a new album, nadie sabe lo que va a pasar mañana. Rounding up the top five were The Weeknd, Drake, and Peso Pluma.

The top song of the year, Miley Cyrus's record-breaking "Flowers," had incredible momentum from the day of its debut through the summer months and now counts more than 1.6 billion streams globally.
