Madonna's Official Top 40 most streamed songs
Madonna has been the Queen of Pop for 35 years, notching up 71 Top 40 hits on the Official Singles Chart across 14 studio albums, having just released her latest set Madame X.
We've previously revealed Madonna's best-selling singles, but which of her tracks are proving the most popular in the streaming era? Topping the list by a hefty margin is Like A Prayer, with 28.5 million plays in the UK to date. The song hit Number 1 on Official Singles Chart back in 1989 and became an instant classic, logging three weeks at the summit. By contrast, Like A Prayer finishes seventh place in her all-time best sellers list.
Madonna's second most streamed song is 2005's Abba sampling chart-topper Hung Up, on 17.6 million, closely followed by Material Girl at 3 (17.5 million) and Latin-flavoured La Isla Bonita at 4 (16 million).

Streaming also favours some of Madonna's more recent hits, some of which rank above her big Number 1s: 2008's 4 Minutes is fifth, Bitch I'm Madonna is seventh, and 2014's Living For Love, the lead single from her Rebel Heart album is fifteenth. Medellin, the lead single from Madame X, is at 29 with 2.6 million streams in the UK.
Some perhaps surprising omissions in Madonna'a Top 40 most streamed are 1987 chart-topper Who's That Girl?, Confessions On A Dancefloor single Get Together, a Top 10 hit in 2006, and 1995's controversial Top 10 single Human Nature.

I still think streaming shouldn't be added to charts sales. No 1 should be based on sales only, there is also a streaming chart. I have to admit I'm a bit shocked how Madonna's fan base in Uk , Ireland and Australia has shunk so much. A Brilliant album maybe in years to come it be given the credit it deserves , unfortunately I don't see a long life for it on these charts unless she gets a hit single .

When an artist is as big as Madonna with 63 Top 10 UK Official chart entries a lot of TOP 10 Hits will be left out of the TOP 40 Most Streamed tracks (and also 33 TOP 3 Hits!). "Who's That Girl" was a #01 in '87 but it's not on any Madonna album except the Greatest Hits compilation "Celebration". Plus Madonna never ever promoted this track again in any benefit, special show or as a line up of any tour since 1987 more than 30 years ago (she did performed a lot with "Like a Prayer", "Vogue" and "La Isla Bonita").
Nice to see that 3 tracks from the past 4 years are on this chart despite not being Official Chart Top 10 Hits. It means that Madonna new songs are streamed on the streaming ERA and not just her past hits.

WTG was in fact played on some of the UK dates of her Rebel Heart Tour in 2015

Yes she did played an accoustic short version of the song on couple of concerts that was not even listed and that was not even filmed. It was the first time she played the song since '87.

It's interesting to see I'm Madonna on that list.
I think it's a fun tune.
