For those that don't know - http://last.fm is a service that collects data about your musical tastes, regurgitates it for you and collates it with everyone else's information to build statistics for those that are interested.  It's also a social networking tool.

What I found really interesting was that even though artists like Nirvana, The Stones and Nine Inch Nails regularly appear in the Top 50, GNR are nowhere to be seen.

The top 20 GNR tracks are:
Welcome to the Jungle 3923
Paradise City 3187
November Rain 2905
Sweet Child o' Mine 2586
Patience 1721
Live and Let Die 1624
Civil War 1620
Knockin' on Heaven's Door 1560
You Could Be Mine 1509
Nightrain 1276
Don't Cry 1268
Mr. Brownstone 1267
Yesterdays 1223
My Michelle 1174
It's So Easy 1170
You're Crazy 1111
Rocket Queen 950
Estranged 927
Out ta Get Me 912
Think About You 815

I suspect that those figures reflect REACH not PLAYS (ie 3,923 people played WTTJ) but I'm not 100% sure.

I was thinking it'd be interesting to see what the figures looked like in two weeks if a bunch of people signed up. Would the top 20 song list change much?  Would GNR make it into the Top 50?  See what the power of the hardcore GNR fan base is.  I'm only posting this here but if someone wants to copy and paste it to other forums, then feel free.

You can sign up a http://www.last.fm.   It supports Windows, OS X, Linux etc.
