The Hideaway 20 - My Most Scrobbled Songs from January 2025

The year 2025 marks our twentieth anniversary with a last.fm account. While I signed up in 2006, I neglected to connect my digital music sources until October 2013 just after I started The Hideaway. As a longtime fan of music charts and countdowns, I have been most recently inspired by Matt Bailey's graphs about songs and the personal music charts shared by William Harris and Erik Mattox. After more than a dozen years of sporadic Hideaway posts about last.fm, I am proud to present our first monthly Hideaway 20, the twenty songs I have listened to the most over the thirty-one days of January 2025.
