I heard it was because Kevin Moore is sitting at home listening to PMU over and over again and that's why it's so high

okay so I'm gonna go with this
Most of Images and Words is on the top 15, and Another Day was also on the Greatest Hit compilation
+ this
If someone puts on I&W to listen to the album, PMU is the first song.  Some listeners will break it off after that song, but they usually continue (or forget to stop it after that song), so it goes to Another Day.  Part way through Another Day they realize this and change songs.  But at that point last.fm already tallied the listen.

Enough with that fucking picture.
Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

Anyway... last.fm's charts are really deceiving because they go by tracks played and don't take into account song length. I've listened to DT way longer than most other bands, but they aren't ranked at the top because most bands have three minute songs and you can get through them quicker.

Just wanted to point out that it's a pretty common mistake the author made in the OP - the band charts on last.fm show the number of people who listened to the song, not the amount of listens. Doesn't matter if it's one or 100 listens, one person counts as one (it makes sense I guess, otherwise imagine what would happen if someone put a song on repeat for an entire week...).
