The likes of AC/DC and The Rolling Stones make up the list, which is topped by Michael Jackson's Thriller.

A list of the most streamed songs globally and in the UK has been released by Spotify, and unsurprisingly Michael Jackson's Thriller takes the top spot.

The global list throws up a few surprises, however, AC/DC's Highway To Hell, Talking Heads Psycho Killer and The Rolling Stones Sympathy For The Devil featuring at 5th, 14th and 15th place respectively.

Watch The Rolling Stones play Sympathy For The Devil at London Stadium:

Also in the Top 20 most globally-streamed tracks was the ELO's Evil Woman, Stevie Wonder and The Cranberries Zombie.

Other Halloween bash favourites included in the list were the Ghostbusters theme tune by Tay Parker Jr., the Monster Mash by Bobby "Boris" Pickett & The Crypt-Kickers and Time Warp by Little Nell.

Despite Michael Jackson's Thriller also topping the UK's most streamed list, the most streamed songs in the UK paint a slightly different picture.

However, with The Rolling Stones failing to make the list, Talking Heads' Psycho Killer is much popular in Blightly, featuring on the list in 9th place.

Shockingly, two versions of the Time Warp made it into the list, with the Glee Cast's version of the track reaching number 11, while the original placed at number 16.
