Justin Timberlake’s ‘Can’t Stop The Feeling’ was the most played song on Australian radio in 2016.

‘Can’t Stop The Feeling’ took up 1,254 hours of airtime in 2016, the equivalent of 52 days.

Timberlake’s song, from the movie ‘Trolls’ was played over 10% more than the no 2 song of the year, ‘This Is What You Came For’, by Calvin Harris featuring Rihanna.

Australian music had a disappointing result for the year. Sia has the most played Australian song with ‘Cheap Thrills’ at no 4 followed by Flume’s ‘Never Be Like You’ at 5. “It is disappointing to only see 2 Australian songs in the Top 10 this year,” said RCS Vice President South Pacific Keith Williams.
