Option to sort songs in a playlist from highest streamed song to the lowest

When you find a playlist that you seem to like, it would be nice to be able to sort the songs from highest streamed to lowest streamed. For me personally that would be a nice way to find new favorite songs: if there are popular songs in a playlist that I’n interested in, that I haven’t heard of before, I should give them a special listen.

Hi! Also a suggestion regarding sorting playlists: let us choose if we want the latest added songs on the top or bottom. Because they’re automatically at the bottom now

We need this. This would revolutionize playlists as completionists attempt to find bigger and bigger lists for "Most streamed all time". It would make something that takes 8-9 hours to update, and unrealistic to update daily, to something that can be updated in one click.

I request that the songs on playlists that people make can be sorted by the amount of streams each song has. This should be relatively straightforward. It would enhance some people's experiences, as well as add a little bit of flair, and if someone is trying to listen to each of the songs in their playlists in order of popularity, this would be a great way to complete this.

Yeah, please make this happen. Two reasons: First, I would like to be able to sort an artist’s songs by plays, out of curiosity mostly. Second, I have five or six playlists where I order by play count, so I have to check this manually periodically to update.

I'd like to take this idea to another level.  I'd like to see songs on my playlist ranked in order by total streams in the last week, month, year, or even all time.  I have some pretty old songs ('80s) on my playlist, but I'd like to see how often these songs are still relevant and popular today, and which ones are the most currently popular within a genre.  This would be fun to track from week to week, particularly when an old song gets some mainstream attention.  (Kate Bush's "Running Up That Hill" comes to mind, when Stranger Things started airing it.)

I've been trying to find a way to order the songs in my playlist by streams for many months now but I have to do it manually. I think this option would be very useful for fans that want to give more streams/recognition to songs that doesn't have much. As part of the BTS fandom (ARMY), and kpop fan in general, this could help us a lot. Thank you! 💜
