Self destructing playlists

This would basically be a feature where a song is removed from a playlist after it was played.

This would ensure that every song gets listened to without repeating songs before the entire list is played.


In my use case i would use it by copying my main playlist and play through it on shuffle (which removes the songs).

 

A true shuffle experience if you will. 🔀

I like this request, but I would rather frame it differently.

 

I am looking for a way to make multiple non-volatile queues.  I would hope they look a lot like playlists, but they will behave like the queue as you describe.

 

Currently, there is only one queue. If you change devices, it can get reset. I am a person who likes to listen to a lot of new to me music and albums. When I find an artist I like, I do a deep dive and try to listen to every track on every album. I often like tracks which Spotify classifies as unpopular.  But if you plop all that into a queue and then it glitches and clears your queue when you switch devices, that can be extraordinarily frustrating.  I've got 2k songs in my listen list right now.

 

So what I'd like is for Spotify to have basically what you're describing. A queue that you can name that sticks around like a playlist but drops tracks after playback.  I want them removed from the list permanently after playback. I'm not sure if that is what you are requesting, though.  But what I'm describing would work fine to accomplish your need too.
