I thought it would be fun to look at Kasabian's most and least streamed songs on Spotify. Not counting bonus tracks.
Kasabian Most: Club Foot (93,276,574) Least: U Boat (711,439)
Empire Most: Shoot the Runner (35,609,203) Least: Seek & Destroy (1,087,500)
West Ryder Most: Fire (118,049,913) Least: Secret Alphabets (2,506,783)
Velociraptor Most: Re-Wired (25,310,368) Least: Neon Noon (1,965,050)
48:13 Most: Eez-eh (30,758,175) Least: Levitation (1,624,234)
For Crying Out Loud Most: You're In Love With A Psycho (70,566,712) Least: All Through the Night (2,182,364)

I wonder if U Boat used to be the version with the hidden track that made people always skip it and that's why it has such a shockingly low number. It doesn't make sense otherwise, it's not a bad song. Even Seek & Destroy which a lot of people dislike has over a million.

Club Foot has hit 100 million streams, the second track after Fire to achieve this.
I also had a look around non-album tracks. The most streamed one is the Z-Trip remix of Day Are Forgotten with over 17 million.
Pictures of Matchstick Men (2m) and Somebody to Love (1.4m) are also pretty high. Both being covers they might be on a few playlists. Beanz and Gelfling have over 1m as well but this is likely because they're included on the deluxe edition of 48:13, so people listen to them as part of the album, you don't have to go out of your way to find them like other b-sides.
All the streams seem a bit disproportionate. FCOL is the only release I would place 100% in the streaming era. If Spotify had been around from 2004 it would all look a bit different. Most pre-streaming fans will own the older albums either physically or digitally. I think their fanbase also skews a bit older and less, you know, stanny.

Very true about the fan base. One thing I'm grateful of in this fan community is there seems to be hardly any annoying "this is their only good album" types trolling the appreciators of all their music
