I thought it might be interesting to see some Spotify numbers for Don, Randy and Bernie, given that streaming now generates more earnings for the music industry than physical media and downloads and it’s the way most young people listen to music. Of the three, Don is the only one who still has an active music career, and the numbers reflect that.

*not sure why this falls under Don’s music, AFAIK he doesn’t play on this version. Missing is “Heavy Metal (Taking a Ride)” which isn’t on Spotify yet.
