Please reinstate a proper library of 'liked songs'

[OscarNommay]

It used to be, a year or so ago, that you could 'save' a song and view your saved songs by artist or album etc as you might with any other music software such as iTunes - but saving an artist was later removed and 'liking' only existed.

From that point the only way to look through songs you like was either by artists you have followed, albums you have liked or playlists. Since then, you have also recently made it so that searching for an artist within your artist list searches for ALL their songs, not the songs you have liked or saved.

You keep removing any way for people to like certain songs/artists to search within what they like. Currently, if I want to see every song I like by a certain artist I have to search down my 'liked songs' playlist for them all. Can you PLEASE return to the tried-and-tested system of liking artists and songs and laying those likes out as a library? It was a perfect user experience that you've made harder and harder. I can't make a playlist for every musician I like!

TL;DR: Please make a user friendly way to look through ONLY the songs you have liked/saved for certain artists agan

Very much correct! I really used the feature quite a lot to play songs I liked per artist. I don't want to make dedicated playlists for every artist I am following, that's ridiculous. Hope they add it again very soon.

**bleep** thank you! I’m so glad it’s just a glitch. Reinstalled and it fixed it right away:)

This is not fixed. It just started doing it for me within the last month. I can access liked songs by Artists in my mobile app but not on my desktop app. 

I assume this is the version I am running on my desktop.
