Avicii was always a pioneer, fusing new sounds and breaking new barriers. Today, as the decade reaches its end, we can once again relieve this magical song and everything it brought to the game. Arguably, ‘Wake Me Up’ is one of the biggest songs of all time. It went diamond, platinum, and gold in countless countries as well. As of today, it’s the most shazamed song of all times with 23,134,160 shazams. It sold millions of copies all over the world. ‘Wake Me Up’ went on to achieve 1st place in more than 30 countries. Well, as of today, we can say, they understood. One of the biggest songs in the decade, ‘Wake Me Up’ reached 8th place in the 50 most-streamed Spotify songs in the decade. Around that time, Avicii declared “they’ll understand soon”. It was strongly criticized, and rejected by many inside the EDM industry. Initially, the song suffered strong setbacks. Avicii premiered the song at Ultra Music Festival 2013. It is a perfect mix between folk music and EDM. Incubus guitarist, Mike Einziger is featured as well. As Spotify reveals it’s top 50 most streamed songs of the decade, Avicii’s mega-hit ‘Wake Me Up’ featuring Aloe Blacc took the 8th place, confirming the artist as one of the most influential in the decade. Now, we can for sure say Avicii was, without a doubt one of the biggest EDM musicians in the decade. Avicii’s Tribute Concert was, without a doubt, one of the biggest and best events of the year. Two weeks ago, we enjoyed one of the biggest events in EDM history. Although it’s been more than a year since we lost Swedish DJ/Producer Avicii, we can’t go a week without listening from one of EDM’s biggest legends.
