Every year Spotify wraps up the year in a big playlist of a little over 100 of your most listened-to songs of the year. While this is an exciting chance for everyone to look back on their year and reflect on their listening histories, I continue to feel let down year after year. Don’t get me wrong, it is awesome what they do each year, and I have to say it’s a good playlist! It has to be. I mean, it is all of my favorite songs compiled into one extensive list! I just think that the more that Spotify does these yearly wrapped lists, it just isn’t as fun as it used to be when they first started. I might be only one of a few to hold this opinion, but did we all really listen to As It Was THAT much this year? It has been in everyone’s top 5, including mine!
I will remain loyal to Spotify, and you will never catch me fighting for Apple Music. I would be nothing without my Spotify account, but if we switched up the yearly wrapped thing a bit, some of us would look forward to it more every year. Until then, I will begin to curate my destiny for next year’s wrapped playlist. If I want to listen to something embarrassing until I physically cannot stomach it anymore, I will take it to YouTube!
