Spotify Wrapped

Anyone played their 2021 yet?

 

On the soundtrack to your life bit, there are 3 "scenes" in any playthrough, but what's happening seems to change. Anyone had anything different to:

 

 

• Opening Theme
  
• Face off against rival dance crew (that one confused me too)
  
• Proclaiming love in the rain
  
• Tear falling into a pond
  
• Vengeful spirit
  

 

Does everyone also get a thing saying playing white noise videos at night is perfectly normal? I may have done that once, to show Mme LeMarchand what ASMR was. I also apparently listened to Spotify more than 92% of the UK population. Maybe I should pay them more than twice a year...

 

My Top 5 songs looks about right, though as they're all German bands, at least one of whom looks a bit right wing/militaristic and another group's song features lyrics exhorting Germans to be proud, I may now be on the Prevent watch list. (I have done due diligence and can't find any firm evidence to suggest any of them are right wing).

 

Apparently my top musical moods are wistful and inspirational, which I'm not sure fits with what my top 5 genres are said to be (or the above bands) and I'm in the top 0.1% of listeners to one band. How about a free ticket to a gig, guys? If I had a Twitter account, I'd have tweeted you.

 

Anyway, if you use Spotify it's an interesting play - I just wish some of the text didn't whizz by so quickly (and I'm quite a fast reader) and that I could successfully share the stats with Mme LeMarchand (the share thing sends what looks like unique URLs, but clicking them leads to a generic page).

 

Edit: Found another "scene" and if you share via WhatsApp they at least get a picture of the bit you shared.

My account is linked to the car my OH uses to drive to work. Apparently I'm in the top 0.5% of Dolly Parton listeners and my favourite songs are Working 9 to 5 and Joleen...

I made sure Mme LeMarchand has her own account!

 

The Sisters of Mercy used to do "Jolene" as part of their live set from time to time.

I got the whitenoise bit as well - I have never used Spotify to do that.

I haven't listened to the sound track. Just most liked, most played ,faviourite genre etc.

 

Although I only play daily mixes on the way to work.

I wonder if it might change if someone actually does listen to a particular genre late at night.

i have apparently listened to the song "Zero" from Ace Combat Zero 210 times this year.

 

in fairness it is the best final boss music of any video game ever

I only use Spotify to listen to the Smith and Sniff podcast

Just noticed that Spotify has lyrics for a huge number of songs now (not all 100% accurate!) and a lot of them are even synced to the songs. Karaoke time this Xmas/New Year!
