Discover weekly has the wrong idea?

[Castorfiber]

Hey, first time posting here and not sure this is the right place for my comments.

Let me start of by saying I love the "discover weekly" feature - It was great at first but now, the last couple of months the "algorithm" has the wrong idea of what I want to hear - Its the right music, the song are of course great but my problem is this:

-I almost exlusively get covers - famous songs by other artists

-In a five week period I can easily have the same song on four lists by different artists

-Last week I had the same song twice in the same list by diffrent artists (happened before)

I, or we, need a way to tell "the algorithm" to stop a behaviour.... I want to listen to "the dark side of the street" and "mr Bojangels" but I dont want to hear every artist that has ever recorded a version.

I would settle with a like or dislike but would prefer a "like artist, hate song" or "like song hate artist" type deal...

So... anyone have tips for me? How to stop my list from beeing all covers of songs I already have in playslist.

(Oh, yeah - this week my list was full of songs that are already in other playlists.... whats up with that?)

Thanks for reading,

//Stefan

Similar issue. The algorithm has decided I like country music (not!) or country-rock (also not!), I think because I favorited some Eagles songs when Glenn Frey died. I've tried to "teach" it by favoriting some smoky jazz vocalists like Norah Jones, but it can't seem to learn. I agree it needs a "dislike/"Please no!" button.
