    Apple Music has revealed that Ed Sheeran’s 2017 single, “Shape of You,” is its most played song.

    In celebration of the streaming platform’s 10th year anniversary, Apple Music has been revealing its top 500 most-streamed songs. The final batch of songs were revealed Saturday night, with The Weeknd, Drake and Post Malone also finishing in the top five.

    Sheeran’s “Shape of You” reached No. 1 on Apple Music’s Top Pop Songs chart in at least one country on 1,800 days of the last decade, according to a release, and hit No. 1 in at least one country on the platform’s all-genre songs chart over 1,000 days. At the time of its 2017 release, the song broke the record for the streamer’s biggest pop song debut by first-day streams globally. Sheeran had 11 entries in the top 500.

    Taking the second slot of the top 500 was The Weeknd’s “Blinding Lights,” which spent more than 180 days in the top 10 of Apple Music’s Global Daily Top 100 chart. The Weeknd had nine entries on the top 500. The No. 3 slot, “God’s Plan,” was one of Drake’s 27 top 500 entries. The Canadian rapper had more songs in the top 500 than any artist, along with the most top 100 entries (nine songs) by any artist. Much like Sheeran’s 2017 single, “God’s Plan” broke the record for most first-day streams upon its release. Post Malone occupied the No. 4 and No. 5 slot of Apple’s top 500 with his Swae Lee Spider-man: Into the Spiderverse track “Sunflower” and “Rockstar (featuring 21 Savage),” respectively.

    Taylor Swift came in second in terms of most songs in the top 500, first among female artists, with 14 songs making the cut. “Cruel Summer,” which came in at No. 57, was Swift’s biggest track on Apple Music in the last decade. Of the pop star’s albums, 1989, had the most songs make it into the top 500 – “Blank Space,” “Shake it Off,” “Wildest Dreams” and “Style” all made the list.

    BTS, unsurprinsgly, had the most K-pop entries in the top 500. Their 2020 English-language release “Dynamite” landed at No. 34, meanwhile “Butter” sat at No. 252. The newest K-pop offering was Blackpink member Rose’s collaboration with Bruno Mars, “APT,” which ranked 459th. The song, which was the newest on the chart overall, has spent more than 60 days at No. 1 on Apple Music’s Global Daily Top 100 chart, according to a release, ranking in the top five of the last decade.

    Japanese duo Yoasobi was the J-pop act with the most tracks on list – three songs including their debut song, “夜に駆ける (Racing into the Night)” entered the top 500. Meanwhile, the oldest song on the chart was Queen’s “Bohemian Rhapsody” at No. 156.
