The demand for holiday music via Spotify starts to pick up early.
Glenn McDonald, who’s in charge of developing the genre algorithm at The Echo Nest, a research company owned by Spotify, provided FiveThirtyEight with the combined number of daily plays of two iconic Christmas tunes — “All I Want For Christmas Is You” by Mariah Carey and “White Christmas” by Bing Crosby — to serve as a sort of Spotify Christmas Industrial Average.
Looking at the demand for those two songs from Nov. 1 to Dec. 8, you can see a substantial jump in streams Dec. 1.
Tom's Take: FCC should revoke license of any station that plays 'Silent Night' by Stevie Nicks! Worst-ever!
