Comparing the chronological list against what SpotifyCharts has gives us the following differences:

2017
Olivia Rodrigo shouldn't be listed on 28th January 2017, may have been a different date
Brenda Lee in 5th place on 25th December 2017 was over the 1m but has been missed off

2018
Ed Sheeran and Justin Bieber shouldn't be listed on 10th May 2018, the listed figure is from 10th May 2019

2019
Ed Sheeran and Justin Bieber should be listed on 10th May 2019 but have been wrongly listed as 10th May 2018
Mariah Carey shouldn't be listed on 23rd December 2019, the listed figure is from 23rd December 2022
The Ronnettes shouldn't be listed on 25th December 2019, the listed figure is from 25th December 2020

2020
Brenda Lee has been listed twice for 25th December 2020, the high figure and position is from 25th December 2022
The Ronnettes should be listed on 25th December 2020 but have instead been wrongly listed as being 25th December 2019
John Lennon and Yoko Ono have been listed twice for 25th December 2020, the higher figure and position should be listed as 25th December 2021

2021
Olivia Rodrigo should be listed on 28th May 2021 but has been missed off. Different streaming total to the Olivia Rodrigo entry that was wrongly listed in as being on 28th January 2017.
John Lennon should be listed on 25th December 2021 but has been wrongly listed as being 25th December 2020

2022
Mariah Carey should have been listed on 23rd December 2022 but has been wrongly listed as being 23rd December 2019
Brenda Lee should have been listed on 25th December 2022 but has been wrongly listed as being 25th December 2020

So in other words, I've made a completely useless list strewn with errors.

Not sure how there's so many date errors when I went through the charts one-by-one as I added them to the list, but hey ho.

Apologies.

Please don't apologise, there's no need as everyone makes mistakes. Sorry if I offended you by pointing out the very few mistakes. For what it's worth my list above makes it look worse than it is as it effectively uses double entry, as an entry listed with the wrong year will be shown on both the year it should have been on and the one it shouldn't have been. So as well as one accidental omission, there are only 6 actual typo mistakes, and two of those you'd already spotted and fixed, whilst three of the other four will also be very quick fixes too. The only that may need more checking is Olivia popping up unexpectedly in 2017 and also missing a different date in 2021, where they could be another double entry arising from one error, but the dates and stream figures don't tally. 278 entries, each with four data points (date, artist, track and streaming figure) is over 1,000 individual data points, so only making 6 errors is really a very low error rate.

I definitely appreciate the list - errors aside, we all make them (me in particular)! Most songs that have passed 1m+ daily streams won't have more than one version counting to it anyway, or may just have negligible impact from a few remixes etc. Even in the case of Shape of You having the Stormzy remix as well, all it takes is a footnote to explain it's only the top version of a song. Still a useful indicator in my view so I don't think it's fair to call the list "useless" when someone's spent their time working on it.

Yes I agree with Joseph, the list is very helpful and interesting. Didn’t expect there to be that many entries tbh. Crazy that Shape of You had 17 days above 1mil in 2017

Cheers for pointing those errors out, I've altered the list to reflect most of them.

The exception being the Olivia Rodrigo one - because I'm struggling to work out what's happened there. The song good 4 u wasn't out in January and I've just checked driver's license which was but didn't do a million on that date. I'll have to look into it. So utterly confused on that one.

and the John Lennon one because I think this might be an error on your part 'John Lennon should be listed on 25th December 2020 but has been wrongly listed as being 25th December 2020'

Yes the John Lennon one could have been my error then. I actually made and then caught three other errors that I myself made whilst compiling the chronological list, and had to edit my chronological list to correct those, so it could well be that I also made a 4th one.

The Olivia Rodrigo one may well be a matching pair. The extra one is Good 4 U on 28th January 2017 with 1,251,540 streams, whilst the missing one is also Good 4 U but on 28th May 2021 with 1,121,540 streams.

I just checked and I did indeed make a typo on the 2021 entry for John Lennon, as I think that was the one I added as an edit after realising the Lennon error was the only one that didn't have double entry. It's also possible that the connected pair for John Lennon was a bigger error on my part if your list had 2021 all along for one of duplicate 2020 ones on my chronological list.

It's not it's my mistake I'd already correct that one on my first read through over your post.

Just looked through Rodrigo's streaming numbers for both driver's license and good 4 u and there's no 1,251,540 - so it looks like a typo and double up. Probably made after taking a break and going back to that day. I've removed the higher one.

The main list should be more accurate now. Thanks for your help again. It was interesting seeing the chronological version of the list - shows how rare it still is for songs to get 1m streams even now outside the Christmas takeover

Fascinating list! Thanks for sharing. I love reading lists like this - so if you ever do anything else you think might interest us, please share.

I wonder if Wham! or Mariah might pull ahead in the list of most days.
