I searched “Love dr” so I could play “Love Drunk” by the iconic Boys Like Girls, and the top result was not “Love Drunk;” rather, it was “Love Drugs and **bleep**” by “A Boogie Wit da Hoodie” (?). I am very disappointed, and I am requesting that Spotify put “Love Drunk” as the “Top result.” It is disrespectful to one of the best pop rock bands of the decade to put them below a booger in a hooder.    LOVE DRUNK DESERVES TO BE THE "TOP RESULT." ...

Military men and women who are deployed often do not have access to internet.  Spotify will delete their playlists and music that is downloaded if they have gone 30 days without conntecting to the internet.  Most the time when they are deployed they do not have intenet connection for more than 30 days and are unable to redownload their music which means they spend a good portion of the time while deployed with no music.   Music is an essential vise while deployed and I know many people who would be extremely grateful if there was a way to keep music longer than 30 days without internet.  ...

My idea is to have a live number count on songs. Meaning,when we listen to a song we can see a number count of the amount of people listening to the same song from around the world at the same time. I feel like it would be very interesting to view. It would also be quite fun.  ... View more

My request is pretty straightforward and has been something I've wanted for years in music apps. It's the concept of a "true" shuffle mode, where nothing is determined ahead of time. At the end of a track, the next track has been randomly determined from the entire playlist. This makes it much better in cases where you're listening to large playlists (i.e. 100 tracks or more) over several sessions (i.e. driving to work).   The current shuffle mode seems to work in a way where it shuffles the order of your playlist ahead of time, and needs to wait to cycle through the entire playlist before you might hear a track again. You might have a couple of favourite songs which would usually take forever to cycle back around.   The UI for this would be pretty simple; in the same way you can hit "Repeat" twice to toggle on "Repeat All" or "Repeat One", you could hit "Shuffle" twice to toggle on "True Shuffle" (shown with a small "T" in a circle, like the 1 in "Repeat One").   I ran this idea across friends and family over the years, and they all said it would be something they would use. Sometimes it's too long to wait for 500 songs to play before you get a chance at hearing one of your favourites again. Even worse, you might hear a song within the first 10 tracks, wait 490 more, and then be placed at the end of the next randomly shuffled order (and wait 800 tracks or more). ... View more

We've all heard it. The harsh hiss and loss of depth that comes from compressed audio formats. I have been a memeber of spotify for a couple years now and I know that this has been brought up a few times with Spotify's service. Spotify knows that lossless audio is not as important for the average listener and that it does not pose as an important aspect to the listening experience. However, people that want the upmost quality in their music would geatly appreciate an option for lossles audio without needing to spend hundreds of dollars for hi-fi equipment and media to accomplish the same affect that FLAC files can accomplish. I think this would be a great addition to Spotify's platform because there are no mainstream services (that I  know of) that offer this kind of format for their subscribers. I think that this may be an untapped market that Spotify may be able to use in order to get one step ahead of their competititors in terms of quality and  at the same time please the audiophiles that subscibe to their service.  ...

I am suggesting a "See All Songs" button on the artists page, to show all the songs by that artist, much like how the "see all albums" shows all the albums by the artist.   It appears a similar request has been asked about 4 years ago, but I am posting to see if the new customer base agrees.   When trying to find a song where you know the Artist, but not the song title or which album it is from, it is almost impossible. Currently, when you search for the artist, and reach the artists page, if the song is not in the list of "most popular songs", you have to trawl through each album to find the one you are looking for, which can be incredibly time consuming. This could be easily solved with a way to view all songs by an artist. - Often  you are looking for a song but don't remember it's name until you see it. ... View more

I've noticed that when I'm playing a song with an artist video I no longer have the "view queue" button at the top right which is usually there when playing a normal song. Additionally, when I'm playing a song with artist video from my discover or release radar weekly playlists, I don't have access to the "heart" or "dislike" buttons usually shown to the left and right of the skip/play buttons. This is frustrating because I can't say I don't like a song or artist when there's an artist video, and then that artist keeps showing up on my playlist week after week. I'd like to just have the same buttons I have for any other song when listening to a song with artist video.   For reference, I use Android (Galaxy s8) and have the latest OS and latest Spotify version installed.   PS It would be great if we could DISABLE artist videos. They're distracting when driving, they use more data, and they don't add much to my listening experience. I know many others feel the same. ... View more

The latest update completely changed the 'playing now' screen. I usually welcome new layout changes with open arms but not this one. The once convenient 'repeat' button has been moved under the 'options'.   The repeat and shuffle button should be placed back to their original positions, left untouched for easy access and convenience. If something isn't broken, don't fix it.    The updated layout with missing repeat button. New position of the repeat button. ... View more

There have been many ideas submitted that request this feature but they get killed off for insufficient kudos.  This is an attempt to consolidate various terminology that is used to describe the same basic concept. I'm dating myself but the term I feel connects best to the idea is "Liner Notes" which comes from the days of vinyl and refers to a more or less discursive set of information that would include credits for all the musicians, engineers, etc. as well as some history and background of the key performers and perhaps the music itself.  In the classical genre there would be extensive information about the composer and the historical context of the music. With the advent of CD's this info was transferred to an insert that sometimes extended to a multipage booklet, hence the term "digital booklet" is sometimes used. A good example of this would the digital booklet included with Cecilia Bartoli's album Sacrificium featuring the music of the 16th and 17th century castrati.   The bottom line is that Spotify needs to include more "metadata" about the music especially for the genres that I am interested in such as jazz, classical and traditional folk (aka "roots").   Here is link to one of the best articles that gives the rationale for this idea specifiallly for Classical music.  It is still "under consideration" and has almost 2,ooo kudos.  I'd suggest we all vote for it and hope that it's scope is extended to include other forms of music besides Classical.   Here is a listing of previous ideas that have requested this feature using various terminology:   https://community.spotify.com/t5/Live-Ideas/Music- Detailed-Album-Descriptions/idi-p/1243795 https://community.spotify.com/t5/Live-Ideas/Displa ying-album-credits/idi-p/24447 https://community.spotify.com/t5/Closed-Ideas/Some -Kind-of-Album-Cover-artwork-cache-and-additional- ... https://community.spotify.com/t5/Closed-Ideas/Main -View-Album-Cover-amp-Liner-Notes/idi-p/824401 https://community.spotify.com/t5/Closed-Ideas/Line r-Notes/idi-p/757541 https://community.spotify.com/t5/Closed-Ideas/Line r-Notes-Album-Art-Album-Credits/idi-p/233232 https://community.spotify.com/t5/Closed-Ideas/Digi tal-Booklet/idi-p/479548 https://community.spotify.com/t5/Closed-Ideas/Deta iled-Metadata-music-preservation/idi-p/107815 https://community.spotify.com/t5/Closed-Ideas/Albu m-Descriptions/idi-p/118226 ...

I received an email announcing removal of support for the Squeezebox media player. Please do not remove support for the Squeezebox. It is working perfectly fine. Also, I find it a bit disingenuous to try to sell the Gramofon in the same email. I have a perfectly fine device already! Also, what happens to support for the Gramafon? Maybe Spotify will want to stop supporting that next year, and I have to buy another device? That's not a nice way to treat your paying customers! [update] Apparently, behind the scenes there is a different story. Spotify has been providing libspotify, which is a piece of software which is used to connect to Spotify music. The squeezebox plugin we know uses libspotify. What Spotify is saying is that they are stopping support for libspotify. This has been known in the squeezebox community for a while, and an alternative has been developed, as noted in some of the comments here. So the email Spotify sent should have read: "we're very sorry, but we are stopping support for the software you use to play Spotify on your squeezebox. However, there is an alternative and here are instructions to use that alternative" instead of trying to sell other hardware. All this should mean that we can still use the squeezebox to play Spotify, so I'm more happy now ;) Though I still think that Spotify could have done a better job communicating about it. See http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?107615-Announce-Spotty-v1-1-0 for more info on the new plugin. This plugin should be in the plugin list if your logitech media server is up to date.
