Spotify Predicts Top Grammy Winners: Pharrell, Sia and More

Spotify compiled data from its 60 million users worldwide to predict who will steal the four biggest categories at the Feb. 8 Grammys, and Pharrell Williams and Sia top the list.

The digital, on-demand music streaming service pulled data on the most popular streamed songs, artists, albums and viral songs to determine the winners in Sunday night’s top four categories: Album of the Year, Record of the Year, Song of the Year and Best New Artist.

Here are the big winners, according to Spotify: 

Spotify also determined that Sia’s “Chandelier” was the most-streamed song around the globe in both the Record and Song of the Year categories, as well as most viral in Record of the Year (Viral = number of streams divided by the number of shares).
