Playlists

Does anyone know how I can get a playlist to play just the songs I have added to it and not ones which are similar. I'm compiling one for my boyfriend for valentines day as a modern day mix tape and only want the songs I've added to play? Thanks.

Solved!! Got Spotify premium 7-day trial and I can't access the premium features
