It's a yearly tradition where millions of users get to see their most listened to songs and artists from the year, among plenty of other interesting stats.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>Alongside these personalised data drops, Spotify also released stats telling us about national listening trends. And there's been a lot of discussion about one thing: the absence of Australian artists from the top of those lists. Today, we&rsquo;ll explore why this is the case and what we learned from Spotify Wrapped 2025.&nbsp;</p> <p>Hosts: Emma Gillespie and Sam Koslowski<br />Producer: Orla Maher</p> <p>Want to support The Daily Aus?
