Spotify Wrapped doesn’t always get things right. Like many of us during lockdown, she just seems “to be listening to the same songs over and over”. Another seems adamant that despite expecting several new additions in the way of Swift and Rina Siwayama, most of the old favourites like past X Factor charity singles will still make an appearance. One person believes that Bastille, her number one for the last five years, are unlikely to lose their top spot. Nevertheless, after the year we’ve had, many still expect few surprises. “It’s a year captured in time,” she tells me very poetically though she does acknowledge afterward, it is just “a really, really good marketing campaign that plays perfectly to my own vanity”. What came out, how I was feeling, what I was doing or what I overcame in some ways”. As for why she likes Spotify Wrapped, she tells me it gives you “the entire vibe for the year was. As for many of us, “Spotify became own sort of therapy”.Īnother believes it will be “an insight into my emotional state”. He believes his top songs are going to be populated by indie and singer-songwriter female artists with “plenty of breakup songs”. One friend made sure to amp up his edgy credentials telling me that unlike most gays, he didn’t listen to this year’s “big releases like Chromatica and Future Nostalgia”.

Others feel their Spotify Wrapped will take them through the emotional rollercoaster rides of 2020.

One friend tells me the app made him “look up songs on Spotify” after he’s come across them on the app, while another expects plenty of Doja Cat and Nicki Minaj after playing songs on repeat trying to learn how to dance. Some have even become so popular they’ve become meme crossovers. The app that got songs like ‘Say So’ and ‘Savage’ trending on the charts has brought out a whole new craze of dance trends. dr “bimbo batman” malpractice, phd | ia November 23, 2020Īnother influence on peoples’ music tastes (while probably not mine) in 2020 is Tiktok.

As one person told me, “ I listened to Taylor before but not in the capacity I did since folklore ”. The one artist who will be a surprise new entry is one Taylor Swift and I feel I’m not alone in folklore being the sole reason for her appearance.

In terms of changes, Beyoncé looks likely to lose her top spot having not released a solo album in four years (there are only so many times one can listen to Lemonade on repeat). When I looked at my top songs in May, Charli XCX took up all three spots after releasing lockdown-produced how I’m feeling now. Nevertheless, I expect this year to be quite different with new additions like Florence and the Machine (though still very gay, don’t worry). My top artist of all time is Beyoncé and my top five in previous years have included the likes of Lady Gaga, Nicki Minaj, Lana Del Rey, and Ariana Grande. Last year, four out of five of my songs were by Kim Petras with the other by Charli XCX. The best assessment of my music taste would be that it is “cliché gay”. While friends get stats saying that they listened to more indie artists than 96% of Spotify Listeners, mine include no such thing. My own Spotify Wrapped is an interesting revelation every year.

I conducted two Twitter polls – highly credible of course – to assess the mood of the nation.

R eleased at the beginning of December, your listening tastes are bundled up and packaged in a neat array of graphics, stats, and facts that people then use to brag about their edgy credentials or laugh at how basic they are.Ĭurious to know how people felt, I reached out to see how keen people were to see 2020 being summed up through their own choice of bops, podcasts, and sad songs. No, I’m not talking about getting drunk at Christmas, but rather Spotify Wrapped. It’s also that time of year when most young people in the UK get excited about one thing. The days are getting darker and the last thing you want to do is leave the snug embrace of your duvet.
