Hi @Makemsis, welcome to the Spotify Community!

 

The songs you're looking for might not be available. If you tell me the song or album names I can double check for you 🙂

The problem is related on some artist that are Italian but have made songs also in spanish language. But the artist is ITALIAN... please see the attached image.

Ok, if you scroll down the screen you'll see the option "See all albuns"or something like that in Italian. Then you'll be able to browse are her available discography, including the first one from 1993 🙂

It happens that the spanish versions are currently the most played ones... It looks like Laura has a lot of latin fans!

Sorry but I don't agree this...the artist is Italian, I'm Italian ad I'm in Italy! I want play ITALIAN song of the artist... I think this is a big bug.
The problem still also for other artis like "Eros ramazzotti" or "nek" and others. In Italy we are not able to play a radio station from one of this artist (that are really big ad famous artist) earing the Italian (ORIGINAL) song... sorry but this make me crazy!

This is one radio...in Italy, Italian artis...almost all result are Spanish! Very good work Spotify! Bah

Well @Makemsis, you shouldn't complain with Spotify about this. Laura Pausini releases albuns in Spanish since 1994. In 2015 she released "Simili" and at the same time "Similares" only with spanish versions. In 2013 she released "20 Grandes Exitos" cleary for the latin public. Is absolutely expected that if you play her Radio in Spotify you'll have Spanish artists as well as Italian ones. If you dislike the ones who are not Italian, just click on "thumbs down" every time they come up.

 

The same happens with Eros Ramazzotti and Nek, although they has released fewer Spanish versions (like Eros Romántico - 2012, and Nuevas Direcciones, 2009). Their radios show then fewer Spanish versions.

 

But let me give you a suggestion. Why don't you follow Spotify Italia? It has several great Italian-only artists playlists!

Let me know what you think about it 🙂

Same for me, I like to hear the Italian version and Spotify plays the Spanish one. Also they replaced some Italian versions with the Spanish in my own playlists. Really dislike

Nothing happend and there ist still no option to change this behavior? Please give us an option to choose which versions of an artist we prefer. But I have no hope. Last six years nothing happend. Perhaps does other services handle these cases in a different manner.
