December marks a special time for music fans. Amid all of the year-end lists and reassessing everything that’s come out in the past 12 months, Spotify users can check just how many times they’ve actually played Justin Bieber’s “Yummy” on repeat with their “Wrapped” year-in-review stats.

Until last year, Apple Music users couldn’t join in the fun. Now, though, users of that service can finally see just how much they actually listened to “Yummy,” or how often they’ve been spinning Ariana Grande’s latest album, with detailed stats similar to those provided by Spotify’s Wrapped feature.

Apple Music users can access their data, via the “Replay” feature, in a few ways. To simply access the playlist of your 100 most played songs, go to the “Listen Now” tab in the Apple Music app and scroll to the bottom of the page. Once there, you’ll see your Replay for 2020 and every year you’ve had Apple Music. While it’s interesting to look back, it’s probably not going to impress your friends that you listened to Modern Baseball more than any artist in 2016. (I’m telling on myself, aren’t I?) You can also add the playlists to your own music library for easier access.

Once you’re in, you can see the top 100 songs you listened to this year (presumably sorted by what you played most), which might lead you to think, “Jeez, there are so many Phoebe Bridgers songs here. I was really going through it, wasn’t I?”

To access more of the details about what artists and albums you listened to the most, you’ll need to go to Replay.Music.Apple.com (or Music.Apple.com/Replay) in a browser. The page will ask you to sign-in with an Apple ID or use your thumbprint to log-in, if you’re not already signed-in.

This page will give you a breakdown of how many hours of music you’ve listened to, the number of different artists you’ve checked out, and how many albums you’ve played. At the top, Apple Music notes that the playlist is updated weekly. So if you got really into Miley Cyrus’ Plastic Hearts in the past week, it could show up on your year-end list in the near future.

The artist and album breakdowns are a little more detailed than the song list. The top artists will show you just how many hours you listened to each of your top 20 artists. The top 10 albums will show you how many times you played each album, and if you’re me, you realize that Disney+ really got you to fall into the Hamilton hype for a second time. So much so that you apparently played the cast recording album 81 times.
