I use my father's Spotify, but most of the stuff here is my own as I use it loads more than he does. Neutral Milk Hotel and The Libertines being so high is because we went to see both of these live and he wanted to familiarise himself with the music. However, I also listened to both a lot so they're even higher. I love how 69 Love Songs is there, too, and I've only heard it in full like 3-4 times and the first disc around 10. Obviously do it by songs.

I finally got it working, but the top tracks were all stuff I played for my two-year-old. The most interesting results:

Winter: Stevie Wonder
Spring: Prince
Summer: Belle and Sebastian
Fall: Bob Dylan

Total time spent listening in 2014: 2,143 hours

That's ~40% of my waking life spent listening to Spotify. Kind of blew my mind, especially considering that I also listen on YouTube and from my personal collection.
