Spotify just released its Year In Review data and Azalea's song "Fancy" was the most streamed track in the US, followed by "Dark Horse" by Katy Perry, "Happy" by Pharrel Williams, "Problem" by Ariana Grande, and "All of Me" by John Legend.

Spotify's 50 million active users streamed over 7 billion hours of music this year. That's almost 800,000 years of listening and a lot of insight into what music people love.

Katy Perry beat out Rihanna as the most-streamed female artist, Eminem was the most streamed artist overall in the US, and Irish singer-songwriter Hozier got crowned most viral new artist of 2014, thanks in part to his hit "Take Me To Church."

Ed Sheeran's album "x" was the most streamed album in the world, winning him the title of most globally streamed artist of 2014.
