As a continuation of their ongoing partnership, Peloton has a “Top 50 Countdown 2021” playlist featured on Spotify. Note that the order of the Spotify playlist is not the exact same order as the Peloton class playlists, though it’s pretty close. Additionally, the songs were added to the playlist 29 days ago, meaning that like this year’s Cooldown, the data does not incorporate December of 2021.
