While Drake and Justin Bieber lead the charge in other states, online music streaming platform Spotify has revealed smooth and loved-up British vocalist Ed Sheeran is the ACT's most streamed artist.
Sheeran's Thinking Out Loud is the most streamed song in Canberra, with Mark Ronson's Uptown Funk and Hozier's Take Me to Church coming in at two and three.
That's not say we don't also love us some Drake. He's number two on the most streamed artist list, with Calvin Harris, Coldplay and Flume rounding out the top five.
When it comes to the playlists getting us to and from work each day, we're definitely a pop music town. The playlists most listened to by Canberrans are Hot Hits Australia, Today's Top Hits and Happy Pop. The next three playlists in the Top 10 prove we're probably Australia's most chillaxed capital city - we can't get enough of Peaceful Piano, Easy Afternoon and Indie Mixtape.
After something that's heavily localised? Try playlists Canberra Lit Bangers, Parkway Drivin' or Cruising To Canberra. And if you're crying over Spilt Milk, there's always - Spilt Milk Canberra 2016 -.
