Recover names of removed content on Spotify

[henryc804]

I understand that content has to removed from Spotify at times at the discretion of the artist and other legal stuff. However, we should be able to keep a record of the song names and just grey them out, or put them in some old list.

I keep playlists from different time periods in my life and today I went to an old playlist, and realized that the songs had been pulled from Spotify by the artist. However, there is no record of the song names and it breaks my heart because I don't remember song titles because they're in different languages, and there is no record.

We should have some way to record that data, as well as the order it was in as well. Even after a couple of years, I can remember the melody changes between the specific ordering of songs of a playlist I used to loop as it's playing and it brings back all the emotions, and it's a dreadful pity that it's all gone.

Anyone have any solutions?

Hi @henryc804

This functionality exists exactly in the way you describe it. In the settings, there is an option called "Show unavailable songs in playlists". Just turn it on and any songs which are unavailable for some reason will still show in the playlists, just greyed out and unplayable.

This should help.
