Gramo statistics
Which songs dominated on the radio? Which artists and songs got the most playing time? And how much Norwegian music is actually played?
Since 2006, Gramo has published statistics showing what is actually played on Norwegian radio. In 2026, the statistics got a new look. For the first time, they are published as digital charts online, where you can search, sort and explore the figures yourself.

Unfortunately, we did not publish separate statistics between 2015 and 2019. A move to a new system meant that for a period we could not extract data in the same way as before.
