Ten percent of Spotify?!

I'm rich!

But they've never actually made any money, have they?

It's a decimation!

I feel like I ought to swap over but not sure I can be bothered for a quid.

I'm pretty sure I can sell my 10% for quite the wedge of cash.

I am still slowly adding to my playlist over time, which is now up to 403 tracks. (Remember, the only rule for the list is each artist can only appear once, so that's 403 tracks by 403 different artists.)

500 tracks by 500 unique artists.

There is the occasional hiccup where Spotify appear to lose the rights to something, and I then have to replace the greyed out track on the list with something else by that artist, but overall, it all works fine.

Ah man, that reminds me, I wanted to listen to the Dawnson’s Creek soundtrack volume 1 (I mean, who wouldn’t) on Apple’s music thing and they didn’t have THE FUCKING THEME SONG. And equally worse was they didn’t have FUCKING KISS ME ON THERE EITHER. Both were greyed out presumably because someone lost the licenses but I mean, come on, those are the only two fucking songs that are even associated with the (glorious and absolute classic and legendary) TV programme! Fucking first world problems hashtag.

Hey, here’s my special hip hop playlist for anyone who wants to listen to whatever crap I’m listening to! No one? Fine.

Ahhh that timeless classic track, 'She shitted on my dick'.

Mr Dave · **Posted:** Thu Oct 25, 2018 8:24

Is it as good as "when I shit (my dick touch the water)"

I think it's impossible to separate two such magnificent musical creations, and we'll have to place them together in a category of peerless brilliance.

I might do a weird music playlist soon that no one will listen to except me.

devilman · **Posted:** Thu Oct 25, 2018 9:04

This is my general Spotify playlist when I want to listen to a mixture of stuff without anything too heavy - Link. Mixture of cheesy stuff and classic rock mainly.

Spotify is now consistently serving up fantastic selections of new music for me on my 'Discover Weekly' list. Earlier on it was playing it safe and often showing me stuff I already knew about, but as the SCARY ALGORITHMS have got better and learned more about me, I'm often finding it presenting a list of artists I've never heard of before (or was vaguely aware of but had forgotten about).

When the presented track catches my ear, I'll jump off to the 'Top Ten' list for the artist in question, listen through it, and pick a track off that to add to CHOPLEY'S AWESOME PLAYLIST. (Currently at 545 tracks by 545 unique artists, fact fans!)

I now quite look forward to each Monday when I get a new Discover Weekly to listen through.

Splendid stuff. Would Spotify again.

Yeah, Spotify knows what I like much more than any other music service.

Scarily so.

It just searches for hipster nu metal.

Certainly been getting my money's worth from Spotify this year.

46,078 for me.

Jem · **Posted:** Thu Dec 06, 2018 17:02

Mine's a disappointing 38,093 minutes, but only because I listen all day via Alexa and that's set up on a separate account now.

Your favourite genre is: HARD ROCK
Your favourite song is: Starships.

Oh.

My favourite song is apparently The Greatest Showman Medley.

It's a fucking great song.

It is, indeed, a reet fucking banger

That 2018 Wrapped thing is ace. Somewhat confused by the fact that Lady T and I use the same account because I'm too stingy to pay for the family pass.

Apparently my favorite subgenre is 'Album Rock' - only 89,000 others love that type as much as I do. I guess that means I'm kind of a dinosaur...

The 'Tastebreaker' playlist it's created for me is brilliant though, having a great time listening to that at work

Mystery tracks being forced on Spotify users

I thought I’d check out some of these and started with Wye Oak, ‘The Louder I Call, The Faster It Runs,’ expecting nothing much of it, but it’s actually really good. And it wasn’t forced on me, or shown as previously played.

Perhaps it’s just clever marketing.

I do like the Daily Mix things on Spotify, but it's serving up some bleak stuff today -

The Banks of the Ohio

Lyrics

ZOMG Spoiler! Click here to view!

I asked my love to take a walk
Take a walk just a little ways
And as we walked, along we talk
All would be our wedding day

And only say that you'll be mine
In no others arms entwined
Down beside where the waters flow
Down by the banks of the Ohio

I asked her if she'd marry me
And my wife forever be
She only turned her head away
And had no other words to say

And only say that you'll be mine
In no others arms entwined
Down beside where the waters flow
Down by the banks of the Ohio

I plunged a knife into her breast
And told her she was going to rest
She cried "Oh Willy, don't murder me
I'm not prepared for eternity"

I took her by her golden curls
And drug her down to the river side
And there I threw her into drown
And I watched her as she floated down

And only say that you'll be mine
In no others arms entwined
Down beside where the waters flow
Down by the banks of the Ohio

And going home between twelve and one
I cried "Oh Lord, what have I've done?"
I've killed the only girl I love
Because she would not marry me

And only say that you'll be mine
In no others arms entwined
Down beside where the waters flow
Down by the banks of the Ohio

What’ll We Do With the Baby-o

Lyrics

ZOMG Spoiler! Click here to view!

What'll we do with the baby?
What'll we do with the baby-o?
Send him off to his mammy
That's what we do with the baby-o
That's what we do with the baby
That's what we do with the baby-o

Every time the baby cries
Stick my finger in the babies eyes
That's what we do with the baby
That's what we do with the baby-o

Every time he starts to grin
Give the baby a bottle of gin
That's what we do with the baby
That's what we do with the baby-o

What'll we do with the baby?
What'll we do with the baby-o?
Send him off to his mammy
That's what we do with the baby-o
That's what we do with the baby
That's what we do with the baby-o

Throw him up in the old treetop
The wind will blow and the cradle will rock
That's what we do with the baby
That's what we do with the baby-o

Wrap him up in a tablecloth
Throw him up in the old hayloft
That's what we do with the baby
That's what we do with the baby-o

What'll we do with the baby?
What'll we do with the baby-o?
Send him off to his mammy
That's what we do with the baby-o
That's what we do with the baby
That's what we do with the baby-o
