Views or streams?
Streams, but I thought views means the same here (as more general to refer to online services, such as youtube, etc.). However, if that's not the case then let there be a translator to interpret it as "streams" when Doxa talks about "views" in this context...
It is a new vocabulary for me, you know...

Some Spotify update ('what the kids up to'...): "Living In A Ghost Town" is now #55 with its 9,8 million views, just lurking behind "Ride 'Em On Down" (10,2 m), "Fool To Cry" (10,2 m) and "Just Your Fool" (10,6 m) in their all-time ranking. "Hate To See You Go" (#44, 12,0 m) and "Anybody Seen My Baby?" (#30, 17,6 m) are the most viewed post-TATTOO YOU tracks, so "Ghost Town" will be TOP 3 in that category quite soon after passing those two other mentioned BLUE & LONESOME tracks... Or not quite, since "Doom & Gloom" has two strong entries: Jeff Bhasker Mix (#68, 6,5 m) & HONK version (#73, 5,8 m). That's 12,3 m views together.

P.S. The way Spotify calculates stuff makes tricks. For example, "Fool To Cry" has some 3.8 mil 'extra' views from SUCKING IN THE SEVENTIES (claimed to be 'remastered'???) added to 10,2 mil from the 'regular' version of BLACK AND BLUE.

Has anyone else noticed that on Spotify in the US, Living in a Ghost Town has been "added" to Honk (Deluxe), and is now track 1?

UMe can say whatever they want, like 2020 stereo mix of GHS, which... is probably nothing different other than letting one know it's the 2020 reissue. The only way to know is if it's unlistenable. If it is listenable, it's the Virgin remaster.
Virgin had MADE IN THE SHADE (which has the best sounding issues of those songs, like Brown Sugar and Heartbreaker - both noticeably better sounding than the albums) and SITS (same with those songs sounding better, Shattered and Beast Of Burden sound pristine) remastered, I'm guessing, in 1993 for the 1971-1989 catalog but didn't issue them until 2005 (as I recall, anyway). Maybe they were remastered later and that's why they sound a bit better.
Just as, on average, that same catalog, I own a vinyl version of the LPs, some of them the Atlantic/Warner and Columbia/CBS editions due to having found an original issue (ER, EOMST) before my time of buying new releases (TATTOO YOU onward), and the CBS and Virgin CDs of the LPs.
I wouldn't find that to be surprising for a lot of Stones fans.
That includes 3 issues of SITS (original Atlantic/Warner vinyl, Columbia/CBS CD and Virgin CD).
Ume did reissue it in Japan. I'm guessing it was "remastered", although, just like the rest of the editions, there is zero information in the liner notes.
I haven't looked to see if JUMP BACK was issued on vinyl, or for that matter FORTY LICKS, GRRRRR or HONK, but the last 3 different labels issued compilation was SITS (and the last studio album was STEEL WHEELS and, of course, the last live album being FLASHPOINT).
REWIND was two labels.
JUMP BACK has been two labels.
FORTY LICKS was one label... well, OK, two, but only one time.
GRRRRRRRR was one label.
HONK was one label.

"Living In A Ghost Town" seems to be a steady streamer. It has now 11.9 mil streams (#46), making it the third most streamed Stones song in Spotify since TATTOO YOU hits. It will pass very soon "Hate You See You Go" (12.3 mil, #43), and being such a steady streamer months after its relaese, it looks it will even catch "Anybody Seen My Baby?" (18,1 mil, #30) later in the fall/winter.
