I'd like to remove a song from my history

[bohizera]

The app played this particular song over and over again overnight and I'd very much like to remove it completely from my history as I don't really listen to that artist and it always pops up as the most listened song on my Spotify every single time. It's "As it was" by Harry Styles.

Hey there,

Thank you for reaching out here in the Community.

Listening history consists of the songs that you've listened to in the past and it's currently not possible to remove or delete items from this section. 

We'd suggest that you try to discover new music - you can use the Radio feature or head to Search and choose a category where you'll find a lot of playlists made by Spotify, which you might like 🙂 

While there's currently no way to manually delete songs from Recently played history - we'd recommend you leave your vote to this idea here if this is something you'd like to see implemented in the future. The more votes an Idea gets, the more likely it is to get implemented. 

If you're interested in how ideas work and how your feedback reaches the right teams here, check this page out.

Hope this helps. If you need anything else, the Community is here for you.

How would this have helped ??? Be so fr rn. We just want to be able to CONTROL our OWN listening history.

I absolutely hate this.  Going to look at other music providers and probably cancel my account after more than 10 years.

And to top it off, im called a "newbie" by this site.

I've listened to a couple of moaning songs, now I'm scared if it pops up again when someone is around 🤦🏽‍♂️God!!!

Absolutely infuriating. I can go through my Youtube history and just X away the history of stuff I don't want impacting my recommendations but I can't on Spotify? I had autoplay turned off and it decided to autoplay a bunch of pop country garbage and now my recommendations are pop country. All I want to do is delete this play history, jfc.
