[All Platforms] Music Videos

Idea: "[All Platforms] Music videos"

Artists record a video to go with their music / you could upload the music videos that already exist!
I really want to watch them on Spotify while listening.

At Apple Music I can choose between listening to the music, or watching their video.

Hey folks,

 

Thanks for coming to the Spotify Idea Exchange and voting to make this happen.

 

We're happy to announce that music videos are now available in select markets on mobile and desktop! 

 

Once again, thanks for helping us make Spotify better by participating here on the Community.

Good idea, but only if it is executed correctly. For starters, give us the option to turn it on and off.

 

Some of us only want studio recorded or live albums to listen to, and not music videos. I'm one of them.

 

I enjoyed the music video component in other streaming services, but when it was treated as a separate component, and a separate audio track from what was in my regular music stream. I don't want videos shoved into my ears while I'm trying to work, for example.

The idea of ​​bringing music videos seems spectacular to me, YouTube Music and Apple music have them. Spotify is already wonderful for music and podcasts and with videos it would be great, I'm already excited to see videos of Ariana Grande, Taylor Swift and more...

Videoclips add so much more meaning of a song. And its fun to watch while you gaming or something. 

 

Youtube has anoying ads. And with Spotify premium you have not so more fun watching

This should especially be added for  Apple TV premium users

Definitely worth it, currently have to use YouTube for this on the tv and would much prefer to use the Spotify app.

Dear, Spotify

I would like music videos to be added to your app. I feel like it would be a better experience if we have music videos. I provided photos of how it looks like.

There's a new Android app that can do what you want. VJam on Google Play

It's been quite some time. Will this ever come?

Using Spotify on my TV so that I can play it through my stereo system at the house and have it on the TV while cleaning, crafting, etc.

 

I am surprised to see that there's no visualizer feature or anything. There's a dark mode, which turns off the screen with minimal information, but I think it would be great to have the ability to have a visualizer on screen. This would be great for when listening through a computer or TV. Bizarre thing is that on my phone, there are some kind of visual effects in the background, but who stares at their phone or has Spotify open when listening on their phones? Even these simple visual effects that are present on the phone, but formatted for 16:9 would be a huge addition!
