Ed Sheeran has topped a list of the most-played artists on the radio last year - in spite of the fact he didn't actually release any new music during this time!
It is the third time in four years that he's been the UK's most-played artist. He is joined in the top ten by Little Mix, Rita Ora, Jess Glynne and Calvin Harris.
The list is released every year and it shows how much different music and artists are played in certain places.
The full top 10 list was as follows:
Ed Sheeran
Calvin Harris
Little Mix
Rita Ora
Coldplay
Pink
Clean Bandit
Dua Lipa
George Ezra
Jess Glynne
We want to know if you agree with this list or if you would put the artists in a different order.

The list not only showed the top 10 artists on the radio, but also the most-played songs.
These were:
Portugal The Man - Feel It Still
Rudimental & Jess Glynne - These Days
Liam Payne & Rita Ora - For You
Calvin Harris & Dua Lipa - One Kiss
George Ezra - Shotgun
Paloma Faith & Sigala - Lullaby
Rita Ora - Anywhere
David Guetta & Sia - Flames
George Ezra - Paradise
Pink - What About Us?
Interestingly, top single Feel It Still was actually released in 2017 - the year before! - but it was still being played enough in 2018 to top the list.
