Daft Punk’s chart-topper Get Lucky has become the first song to top Spotify’s new streaming chart, based on the most played songs of the past seven days.
The French twosome – whose new album Random Access Memories was released this week – scored 911,420 plays on the streaming service last week, well ahead of Macklemore and Ryan Lewis’s Can’t Hold Us at number two.
That track – currently at number four in the singles chart, received 551,422 plays on Spotify, while Rudimental’s Waiting All Night was at number three with 520,836 plays.
Passenger’s Let Her Go, with 499,480 plays, and Bastille’s Pompeii (478,101 plays) completed the top five.
The latest success for Get Lucky comes hot on the heels of the track spending its fourth week at number one in the singles charts.
The song, which features Pharrell Williams on vocals, has now passed the half million sales mark in the UK.
It also broke the record for the biggest number of streams in a single day on Spotify after it was officially released in April.
Band members Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo and Thomas Bangalter recently revealed that despite their current popularity and the success of their new material they had no plans to go on tour any time soon.
‘We want to focus attention on the record itself, but also the nature of this record makes it not really possible to tour it,’ Bangalter told the NME.
