Fleetwood have 14.5 Million Monthly Spotify listeners. Led Zeppelin have 12.9 Million Monthly Spotify listeners. I don't think it's fair to bring up Spotify as an argument on your side, and then dismiss part of it as not relevant, when its not in your favour. I would also make the case that Led Zeppelin's 12.9m plays represents a lot more actual listening time than the Mac's 14.6m. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No I just think on a music platform listeners is a significantly better metric than followers. You've no basis for that second part, but I guess the majority of this convo is baseless haha.

CaledonianGonzo Posted October 11, 2019 Report Share Posted October 11, 2019 I like them both, but I'm not sure that 'Zep are better cos their songs are longer' is much of a trump card. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm convinced that their popularity is a joke that got out of hand ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C14S Posted October 11, 2019 Report Share Posted October 11, 2019 12 minutes ago, MaxPower said: Which part? Glasto punters definitely skew younger, even if it's got.a better age spread than other festivals. Fleetwood Mac's recent tour was heavily attended by millennials (as others in this thread have pointed out). They also have more Spotify listeners than Zeppelin, even if it's only be a few million a month. We know that the majority of Spotify users are millennials (Spotify have confirmed this in the past). heavily attended is a stretch. Still the majority was boomers. Also from my experience, all of my group and pretty much all of the people I talk to about music my age (2000-2002ish) would all be more interested in Led Zep. Unless my area is a huge minority then I doubt Led Zep don't have the ability to draw the biggest crowd of any Glasto slot I can remember. Apologies for the disgusting double negative there.

Well, my basis would be that the average Led Zep song is *significantly* longer than the average FM song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although her playing two nights later at Heaven was one of the best gigs this year, Carly is one of my favourite artists too, think she would end up with a way bigger following after a successful set. Which she deserves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
