Hi Spotify,    If you could please add a feature that allows us to add songs and podcasts that we would like to explore to a "my listen list". It would be nice to have a place to store and follow-up songs and podcasts that my friends recommend to me, where I don't have to 'heart' it or add it to my library before I get the chance to listen to the content.   Thanks a lot! ...

I just switched from Apple Music and the only thing I miss is that they have lyrics for basically every song and it’ll highlight the lyrics as the song progresses- like a karaoke machine. Not having to search google for the lyrics is amazing. I think this feature would be amazing on Spotify.  ... View more

Hello, Just imagine a situation: You are sitting in the bus. And listening to your favourite music on headphones. When you notice a cute person who is sitting in the bus too, and really enjoying the music, while shaking head with the beat. So curious.. WHAT SHE/HE IS LISTENING TO?! How to know that? You take your phone from your pocket and open spotify app. There you see everyperson in 50m radius who is using Spotify and shares their music. And you see that she is listening for A-HA - TAKE ON MEE!. You connect to her music and listen to this song also. And when the bus stops, you leave it and say to her/him: ARE YOU PLANNING TO GO TO A-HA CONCERT THIS SUMMER? I LOVE THIS SONG TOO. And you live happily ever after ❤️ THE END (Or maybe just a beginning 🙂 ___ So, the thing is : a possibility to look for surrounding spotify users and see what they are listening. A possibility to connect to their song. A possibility to turn ON or turn OFF music sharing (maybe you would like a private moment, and dont want to see everyone listening for your "shame songs" haha! I personally really really often pass a person with headphones and am very very curious, what they are listening to that moment. LIKE THIS IDEA? PLEASE VOTE UP AND LETS CREATE EVEN BETTER, CONNECTED SPOTIFY COMMUNITY  Cheers, Arturas from Lithuania ... View more

please make a feature that allows you to hear only the songs that have never been listened to before like the 'artist radio' or the 'song radio', except it does not play songs you have heard a thousand times before.   often times i will go to a radio hoping to find new music that relates to the one song or artist that I am enjoying at the time, but it will play songs (that are similar for to it for good reason) but i have heard them all hundreds of times before!    Would love a feature to be added that plays songs that have never been played by your account before that are still related to the song or artist you're trying to find more music of.  ...

So, I saw similar closed posts and I cannot believe this idea hasn't been implemented. It would be so good to have a section on the home screen to easily acess new content from favourite artists and based on my activity. Also, to have customized notifications (mobile app) to know when an artist that I follow releases new music. ... View more

Dear Spotify   staff, Many fans including myself feel disappointed by boy group BTS' name being brought up in K-pop girl group BlackPink's spotify   profile. I am sure the writer of BlackPink's spotify profile description meant no harm, but mentioning one artist's name in another's profile description is something we found quite out of context and disrespectful.   -BTS and  BlackPink  are both talented groups   in their own authentic ways   and associating them with eachother for a fact as trivial as the one that they're in the same music industry isn't fair because they're   completely different and hard working artists who   deserve to   be loved for themselves, their concepts and their own music, not because they 'resemble'  eachother . By associating them, that is likely to damage the artists' sense of authenticity and ruin it especially for the people who don't know them yet.   -This could and has led to new listeners concluding that 'BlackPink is the girl version of BTS' which is undeniably wrong and unfair on both groups. They are both unique and should be known as such.   -BlackPink is consisted of 4 artists who we respect. I will repeat it :  we BTS fans completely respect BlackPink and every hard working artist who is under YG Entertainment. But, their company YG Entertainment has been known for not being very kind to BTS back when they were underground artists. So I hope you understand that that's the biggest reason why we do not want YG to be given the chance of using BTS for their own promotion.   As one of the biggest music platforms in the world, I am sure you do not only want your listeners to be satisfied but also your artists to shine under the best light possible. Please take both groups' authenticity and hard work into consideration because saying that they sound that much alike is not the right way to do it. All we ask is for you to simply remove those 3 letters from BlackPink's  Spotify   profile description. Thank you for reading. ... View more

Please add a way for me to block my kids' playlists and songs that they listen to on repeat from affecting my algorithm. A simple toggle on a playlist to set it to private mode. A way to review your recently played songs and click to exclude them from algorithm. Spotify suggested artists, Discover, etc. are totally worthless now as my preferences have been drowned out by my kids. Attached screenshots (literally 2 out of 12 songs on Discover are things targeted at me). I know you can set up family accounts where my kids would have their own account but a 6 year old doesn't get that and neither do Google Home, Alexa, etc. Same with starting a private session. There are so many times we all listen to music also that we wouldn't want similar suggestions. Please make this a more useful experience or I will need to switch to a different platform (YouTube music) my kids don't use. ... View more

It is frustrating that we cannot view any songs playcount on mobile. Except for the artist top 5 songs. Why can we see the playcount on PC, but not on smartphones i.e. Android, Apple etc. ? Idea: To check the songs playcount - tap and hold on the song for around 1.5 seconds In album view - the songs playcount display is on the far right side of the song (Just like on PC). ... View more

I like certain genre, but not all bands or artists within a genre. Spotify systematically suggests some artists I absolutely loathe. I get physical reactions hearing them. I get irritated when I see them in the suggestion feed.  Whenever I can I tell Spotify to hide their songs, bit the algorithm is too stupid to learn. I would like to have a function via which I can block certain bands/artist to appear in my feeds forever. ... View more

Please consider some sort of discography display option that only shows studio albums. It's really annoying to search for any significantly old band and have to sort through dozens of live albums and greatest hits and other releases to find the actual recordings. ... View more

My listening, and I'm sure other people can relate,  can clearly be divided in to two different scenarios: leisure listening (listening for the music) and functional listening  (focused work, meditation, workout). As I do not want the latter to affect my recommendations and discover more movie soundtracks in my discover weekly 🙂 I see value in a feature where you can clearly activate a session where songs listened to won't affect recommendations. (the private session is one and it does state in the FAQ that songs listened might not affect recommendations, easiest implementation of this idea would be to make it clear here: that it does not affect recommendations.)   Other solutions include marking specific playlists, ability for user to control their listening history from account page (as seen in TV & movie streaming services). ...

Hi, I love the Discover Weekly playlist and try to interact with the Like and Don't Like buttons as much as possible to better inform the Spotify Algorithms. It is slightly annoying, however, that the "Like" button is the same button that can be found on any song which will add it to your "Liked Songs" playlist. It would be better if you could go through and react to each song in your discover weekly to indicate if you like it or not without that affecting your playlists. As it stands, I withhold from "Liking" some songs that I would want Spotify to continue suggesting in my Discover Weekly as I don't want them to appear in my "Liked Songs' playlist which I listen to somewhat frequently.   My suggestion would be for a slight improvement to the Discover Weekly liking and disliking system such that this is a stand alone system with no impact other than informing suggested sogs for your Discover Weekly playlist. ...

I tried posting this before and it says there are similar ideas but when I read through them there's nothing about this topic, which I think people with very eclectic taste would love and benefit from.   I'm suggesting that within any level of subscription, a paid user can create listening profiles, maybe there's a max, but I think just two would even be sufficient.   These profiles allow you to compartmentalize the music you listen to so it's not interfering with playlist recommendations.   The reason I am bringing this up is because I love classical music, but I also like contemporary/pop/rock which can all fit under one listening profile while the classical fits under another. I among other musically eclectic friends of mine are already annoyed at how the spotify algorithm is just mixing these genres up into one big mess and I can't connect with my music like I used to. I've had to ban listening to classical music as much as I would like to stop it from suggesting music on my weekly playlist recos.   I think this feature would really take off ... View more

Discover Weekly used to be a good tool because I could turn it on and listen through it. Then I could pick-up good songs on-the-go (1-5 per week).    However, since I've been listening to other languages it has become plagued with random songs. Example: - US rock and roll song.  - US hip hop song (... hhmmmm ok ... my bad i suppose).  - Argentinean cumbia (... why). - Mexican EDM (... wow).    I may like all these songs but this is not a playlist I would ever listen to.    I listen to: 1. English (80%) 2. Spanish (10%) 3. French (5%) 4. Other languages (5%)   Can you not make a filter for the Discover Weekly to choose a language? Or let us have 2 or 3 lists based on language? Keep it separate, it only makes sense.   Spotify closed the previous ideas with >100 votes (??????????). I don't understand. IF you're reading this and have a similar problem, VOTE so Spotify won't back out again.    https://community.spotify.com/t5/Closed-Ideas/Discover-Weekly-Exclude-certain-Languages/idi-p/1481878 ...

Spotify already knows concert venues around me so why not create a playlist (ala discover weekly) with shows happening in my area?!    Lets make it happen! This idea has been floated a few times but it would be rad, encourage live music and be a great way to discover new artists.  ... View more

I mainly get this issue when listening to my release radar or discover weekly. I am not a fan of covers and remixes. If there was a way to filter out remixes or covers, that would be amazing.    Either have a block option for just remixes/covers, or have a way to block "key words" that would be so much easier. I could block or hide any words that I didn't want to come up in my radar and discover weekly then.    As a premium user, I'd love to have a bit more control over what shows up in the weekly suggestions. I feel like currently the algorithm isn't very accurate. I have been disliking nearly every song on both discover weekly and release radar because there is such an absurd number of covers and remixes that I hear, and it doesn't seem to be getting better. When I dislike a song, what exactly does that do? I'm not seeing any changes.     To recap: Having a way to block/hide remixes and covers, or an option to block/hide "key words" would be great!    Thanks.  ... View more
