About

Last.fm has been tracking what people listen to for two decades, and its free API opens that treasure chest. You can get the most-played artists and songs globally or per country, find artists similar to any band, read community tags and wiki bios, and even pull a specific user's recent listening history. Great for anything taste-based.
