SoundExchange has created a list of the new tracks that received the most non-interactive streams in 2022 and there are some glaring differences from Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, and the other interactive streaming top track lists.

### What happened to Bad Bunny and Taylor Swift?

Lil Nas X took the top spot on the SoundExchange list of Top 22 Tracks of 2022 with “That’s What I Want,” and appears at No. 17 with “Industry Baby,” his collaboration with Jack Harlow.

No. 2 is “Big Energy” from Latto, the lead single from her second studio album, 777\. Sitting at No. 3 is Adele with “Easy On Me,” from her fourth studio album 30, while Justin Bieber takes the No. 4 spot with “Ghost,” and Ed Sheeran posts “Shivers” at No. 5.

Doja Cat shows up more than any other artist, notching three tracks in our Top 22 – “Need To Know” (No. 6), “Woman” (No. 11),” and “You Right,” her collaboration with The Weeknd (No. 20).

But missing are two artists that top every other streaming list – Bad Bunny and Taylor Swift. Are interactive and non-interactive steams really that different?
