What music did you have on repeat in 2019? Spotify this week released its annual Wrapped feature, which gives you a rundown of who you listened to most this year.

As this is the end of the decade, meanwhile, 2019's Wrapped also provides a peek at what you've been listening to since the music-streaming service arrived in the US in 2011.

To see who kept you company this year, head to spotify.com/us/wrapped and sign in. Spotify will run through your favorite songs by season, your top five artists, where in the world your favorite musicians are from, your top genres, and top songs of 2019, which you can save as a playlist. If you're a podcast fan, you'll also see stats about your favorites there, too.

Artists can also track their stats via Spotify for Artists, which details things like total fan hours streamed, number of fans who had the artist as their No. 1 in 2019, and number of hours fans streamed their music between 1 a.m. and 6 a.m.—"ie amount of sleep fans lost listening," Spotify says.

You'll also get a decade overview and a chart that shows you how many hours you listened to Spotify in each year; 2017 was a big music-streaming year for me, apparently. If your listening habits aren't too embarassing, there's the option to share your top songs and artists on social media, of course. Anyone who knows me will not be surprised to learn that Madonna, who had a new album this year, was my No. 1 artist of 2019.

Among all Spotify listeners, Post Malone nabbed the most streams at over 6.5 billion. Billie Eilish is at No. 2 with 6 billion streams, followed by Ariana Grande. Here's the full breakdown for 2019 and the decade:

My Experience

I started out covering tech policy in DC for The National Journal, where my beat included state-level tech news and all the congressional hearings and FCC meetings I could handle. I later covered Wall Street trading tech before switching gears to consumer tech. I now lead PCMag's news coverage.

My Areas of Expertise

Getting my start in DC means I still have a soft spot for tech policy; Congressional hearings can sometimes be as entertaining as a Bravo reality show, for better or worse. But PCMag is all about the technology we use every day, as well as keeping an eye out for the trends that will shape the industry in the years ahead (or flop on arrival). I've covered the rise of social media, the iOS vs. Android wars, the cord-cutting revolution that's now left us with hefty streaming bills, and the effort to stuff artificial intelligence into every product you could imagine. This job has taken me to CES in Vegas (one too many times), IFA in Berlin, and MWC in Barcelona. I also drove a Tesla 1,000 miles out west as part of our Best Mobile Networks project. Of late, my focus is on our hard-working team of reporters at PCMag, guiding and editing their robust coverage.
