How Many Studio Singles Released?

[More Play Time]

I count 49. But is this right?

I did not count the remixes done by other artists, and any live releases.

But what about Lay Lady Lay, and Too Late Marlene?

Please check my list and give your opinion.

I would agree with 49. I only count stuff released either in UK and/or US or Worldwide/Digital Era. I guess there's an argument that "Burning The Ground" was medley/mashup and not really an original song/single so shouldn't really count... "Nice" was definitely a single since there was an official release for purchase digitally.

Last Night in the City I would count personally. There were promos, digital and publicity.

But wasn't Nice just a remix CD?, just like All Of You?

& as much as I don’t believe it’s one of their better works 

there was an official DD video for it too 

[astronaut42]

as noted above, Nice was a digital release including remixes. Good catch Blaahh on Last Night. It definitely counts. So that would put it at 50.

available on Itunes, Apple Music, Spotify etc.

Any song that was given a standalone release and artwork is a single. How that song is made available or promoted changes with the times. Paper Gods, Last Night in the City & You Kill Me With Silence also fall in that category.

Taking a deeper dive, Now I'm counting up to 54 singles (US or UK) that were commercially released physically or digitally and I own all of these. It really depends on what everyone considers since the single format has dramatically changed over 45 years. Definitely 50 major single releases now. Wow!
