NyQuil and warm glasses of milk have nothing on Ed Sheeran, according to a recent report from Spotify.
The music streaming service released a report on Monday that lists the 20 most-streamed songs across the platform’s 2.8 million “sleep”-themed playlists. Sheeran’s “Thinking Out Loud” claimed the top spot, but perhaps more impressively, the singer had a total of seven songs in the Top 20.
“Stay With Me” by Sam Smith came in at No. 2, followed by Ellie Goulding’s “Love Me Like You Do.” To his credit, Smith had four songs on the list.
“Rain for Sleep” off the aptly-named album Rain Sounds clocked in at No. 6, so Sheeran, Smith and Goulding can all sleep easy (see what I did there?) knowing that they’re better at putting people to sleep than Mother Nature herself.
Somewhat surprisingly, Rick Moranis’ high-pitched rendition of “Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star” from Honey, I Blew Up the Kid did not place on the list. That’s my sleepy-time jam.
