[Mobile] See all Songs on Artist Page

Dear spotify,

 

First of all, thanks for your awesome service! I really enjoy my premium account on my desktop and iPhone version and use it at home and wherever I go. However there's something that bothers me often while searching for a song, especially on the iPhone version.

  

I often search for a song of a specific artist. So I use the search function and reach the artist's page. Once there, the app only shows the 5 most popular songs of the artist. But often the song I'm looking for is not listed there (maybe nr 6 on the list or lower). Now I have the option of searching through the albums, which can be quite time consuming, or try to use the search function again and hope to find it with a more specific combination of words (provided that I know anything more than the artist's name).

 

Now every time I get to this I'm thinking why can't I tap a button ('see all songs') which allows me to see all the artist's songs in a list? That is something I'm looking for intuitively. On the desktop version, the list of 5 can be extended to 10 most popular, but also here I'm thinking: why only 10?! Actually, the list I'm looking for can be brought up by the app already by playing the first song (while not in shuffle mode) and tapping the playlist icon. This brings up the kind of list I would like to see: all the artists songs I can just browse through. Only now I'm playing the first song, which I didn't want to hear at all.

 

Preferably, I would want to be albe to sort the list in order of popularity or alphabet.

 

 

Cheers!

@Jason85 Ideally they'd let you listen to all songs by an artist, but let you sort by popularity, year released, album, etc. Seems like if you were building a music app this would be like one of the first features you'd have, right?

"We're keeping this idea marked as 'Not Right Now', as this isn't something we have any immediate plans to implement."

 

After 5 years of clear interest by the community, Spotify has finally taken note, and swiftly jumped into action to give everyone the finger.

 

Not only are you blatantly disregarding our request for a very basic function, you further disrespect everyone here by not even attempting to explain your reasoning for doing so. Why bother saying anything, when it's essentially just a more wordy version of "We're not doing it, because we aren't going to do it."

 

I'm not going to plead with you, because you clearly don't give a damn.

This is complete insanity. Listing the Top 5 songs but providing no other way to view a list of songs by the artist is breathtakingly pathetic.

WHY DID YOU REMOVE THIS SPOTIFY???

I thought I WAS listening to a while discography until I looked closer and saw it was just the list of popular songs. I had to select album by album to go through an artist's whole catalog. That seems insane to me, on a platform all about constant play. I would LOVE the option of the entire discography with the option of shuffle versus chronological, and even a few options like opting out of a specific album if there was one that was a stinker... At LEAST select several albums at once and then DEPLOY NONSTOP SHUFFLE or something similar.

Guys. I thinks we need to submit to change. org to make this happen!
