fun and embarrassment w/ Spotify analytics

noisereductions · 12.07.2017, 10:48 AM

so Spotify does their thing at the end of each year that gives you stats on what you listened to all year. I thought I'd share with you guys what it tells me (for better or worse)...

To note, I remember last year that my #1 most listened to artist was The Smashing Pumpkins. Shocking.

Anyway, here we go... 2017...

TOP ARTISTS
1. Wilco
2. Weezer
3. Ryan Adams
4. Bush
5. Aziz Ansari

...the top 3 aren't surprising. At all. I expected SP to be in there. Maybe PJ. Bush is like, what really? I mean. Hmm. Aziz... that's funny. I do listen to his comedy stuff a lot tho.

TOP SONGS
1. "Should've Been In Love" Wilco
2. "Misunderstood" Wilco
3. "Do You Still Love Me?" Ryan Adams
4. "She's A Jar" Wilco
5. "One By One" Wilco

...wow. Haha. I DO love Wilco.

You need to listen to more things.

noisereductions · 12.07.2017, 11:21 AM

I don't think I do. I'm a generally happy person. And to my knowledge, my listening habits aren't hurting anybody.

!@#$%! · 12.07.2017, 11:36 AM

ryan adams... is that some shitty 80s canadian? or something?

Rob Instigator · 12.07.2017, 12:07 PM

where do you find that ? I gots the spotify

noisereductions · 12.07.2017, 12:13 PM

hit "Browse" and then scroll down to "2017 Wrapped" and you'll get a playlist of your top songs, and a playlist called "ones that got away" that I'm not really sure what it is.

Below that, there's a link to "look back at 2017" where it'll quiz you and then tell you what your top 5 artists and songs were.

Rob Instigator · 12.07.2017, 12:18 PM

1. Heart Cold - Rich Homie Quan
2. Blase' - Ty $
3. Low Life - Future/Weeknd
4. Starboy - Weeknd (cuz I'm a motherfucking starboy too)
5. Hercules - Young Thug
6. Percocet & Stripper Joint - Future
7. goosebumps - TRavi$ Scott
8. Bussin' Sudz - Dew baby
9. From The D To The A - Tee Grizzley/Lil Yachty

these are just songs from your playlist, unranked.... find the thing that says "look back at 2017" and it'll tell you the actual TOP 5 artists and songs.

I only use spotify for driving and have just 4 different "mixes" set up. One is trap, one is OG rock n roll (berry, richard, holly, domino, diddley), one is where I dumped about 200 albusm from my noise rock faves.

how am I not listening to "enough"?

Plus, so much Wilco. What's wrong w/ Wilco, Soup?

ANYWAY, this is really not accurate since for instance I tend to only listen to SY on CD and not thru Spotify. But it's interesting.

Absolutely nothing. But for Vishnu's sake add some PERE UBU to your day goddammit! Their first three albums and the Terminal Tower collecsh to start with!

noisereductions · 12.07.2017, 04:22 PM

lol I'm looking at my Top Played Songs 2017 playlist that it made for me, and this is pretty hilarious... "Lasagna" by Weird Al is on there. But the reason is that I have this ongoing thing I do to my wife where I'll try to sneak that song up on her. Like, she'll be reading in the bed and I'll put it on my phone softly and slide the phone under the bed from out of sight. Or I'll send her a link and be like "woah! First new Star Wars trailer" but it's that song. I've even gone outside to the backyard and remote streamed "Lasagna" interrupting whatever she was watching on the Fire Stick. She hates Weird Al by the way. So yeah, the fact that this song is one of my most played of the year for this reason is really funny to me.

The Soup Nazi · 12.07.2017, 04:26 PM

Am I the last bachelor standing in this joint?

Marriage is for gays.

noisereductions · 12.07.2017, 04:29 PM

I've been married for um, 11 years. So this isn't a new thing, bruh.

Rob Instigator · 12.07.2017, 04:47 PM

I am on marriage # 2. 6 years in!
