The annual summary of your listening habits has become a phenomenon – but aside from being a marketing wheeze, Wrapped doesn’t always reflect what we truly love
This year I noticed that it didn’t really reflect my tastes. A couple of the most played songs were songs I don’t actually like, that Spotify keeps playing me in the car. I can’t tell it I don’t like the song while I’m driving, and even if I skip it, the song just reappears the next day.
So my New Year’s music resolution is to rely on generated streaming playlists less and be more deliberate about what I listen to. Evidently I’m spending a lot of time tolerating music I don’t particularly enjoy.

Yeah I spent a lot of time with “daily mix” playlists playing. Half of the songs were ones they kept repeating in those.
