[Playlists] More Playlist Sorting Options/Columns

Sort options within Spotify are severely lacking.

 

First, what's lacking outright:

sort by year, total plays, personal playcount, current popularity, genre, tempo, etc.

 

On top of that, sorting should be stackable, e.g. sort by album by year, or sort artist by total plays, etc.

 

This could apply to within the artists' pages as well, allowing us to sort through all their songs to better find music that suits our tastes.

Hi folks. Thanks for all your votes and comments. We like this idea, but at the moment we're not planning to do this.

If something should change we'll be sure to come back and provide an update.

Especially BPM, Please!

I support this idea, it would be convenient for DJs (year, genre, bpm, tonality, smart playlists..)

You can use third-party (well, 1st-party since the dev is with Spotify afaik) tools for now:

Hope it helps!

Song length would be so helpful. Also the album art that is displayed on the Spotify mobile apps would be nice too.

 

There are lots of programs that let you pick which columns to display. This would be perfect if the main concern is providing a clean interface.

PLEASE  AND THANK YOU!!!!!!

Even adding Genre to the search results would be helpful. It's pretty useless now unless you are looking for something really specific.

Hi all,

 

I had the idea of adding the play count to the ‚filter‘ options for sorting in a playlist in the iOS App of Spotify. 


What do you think?

Column for BPM!!

I would like to see [Root Note / Key / Camelot wheel] column, as well as [BPM] column. Any other data in Echo Nest would also be appreciated.
