    I'm really into Dreamo and my top artist is Relient K.

    It also thinks I cook a lot.

    Guess there wasn't a "Hikes a lot" option in the algorithm. :)

    Top artist all time: Funeral for a Friend.

    That's my favorite band. RIP

    Top track all time: "Ready to Go" by I Call Fives. Probably right, I jammed this so much like 2 years ago.

    Top genre is Alt-Emo at 72%. Some genre called Pixie is at 50%. Okay?

    My recent stuff is all Scary Kids Scaring Kids, which is also true. The City Sleeps in Flames still rips all these years later.

    Top artist all time: Silverstein
    Top track of all time: Brave - WVNDER (I think this one is skewed because it always used to play when I opened up a Spotify place list)

    Recent top artist is CHON, and the recent song is Sleepy Tea by them. Apparently I've been on a bit of binge...

    Top two Genres are Screamo, and Pop Punk which is fair. I also apparently listen to a genre called Pixie (I have no idea what that is...)

    This is a pretty cool marketing and interesting use of data, I'd be interested to see what else they can do with the data.

    Hahaha I'm glad I'm not the only one who doesn't know what Pixie is.

    Also I didn't realize Scary Kids Scaring Kids was on Spotify, although maybe I just need to import my local files so I can listen to them on there. I miss that band...

    Be kind; everyone is on their own journey.

    I need to stop reading about Spotify stuff thinking 'man, I wish Apple did that...' Too much to switch over and I feel biased cause I've used Apple Music for so long. Decisions, decisions...

    Play the Yakuza series

    "YOU ARE HIGH ENERGY! We can’t seem to find any chill music in your recent streaming history. What’s it like living life at a 10?"

    Then the one below that

    "Or you just have a youthful spirit and enjoys a good lullaby."

    Okay then haha
     
  12. Top artist: Blink-182
    Top song: "For Me This Is Heaven" by Jimmy Eat World
    Top genre: Pop punk (40%)

    69% of my tracks are "energetic"

    "YOU ARE HIGH ENERGY! We can’t seem to find any chill music in your recent streaming history. What’s it like living life at a 10?"

    "Based on the playlists in your library, we’re guessing you’re a great parent. Or you just have a youthful spirit and enjoys a good lullaby."

    who can never be sure

    My top artist was predictably Imogen Heap

    My top track was Ode to Sleep by TOP which doesn't even break my top 50 on last.fm

    Something seems really off with their data. 26% of my music has been "Punk Christmas". I don't even know of any songs that would fit that description, maybe a Relient K song or two? There's no way this data is accurate, at least their genre data.

    Lifetime top artist is Ellie Goulding, recent top artist is Dua Lipa, 77% of my tracks are energetic, and top genre (by a mile) is pop.

    Sounds about right. Especially in the spring and summer, I am definitely full steam ahead on the pop train, and then gravitate more towards more chill music in the late fall and winter.

    Also, Spotify needs to get their genre names in check. One of my top genres is Metropopolis...

    My top artist is the Wonder Years, which makes no sense because I haven't been an active fan of theirs for years and even when I was there are certainly other bands I listened to more at the time
     
  24. GEM37

    She haunts the roads

    With everyone who wants more details/options, but it's pretty accurate for me.

    Lifetime Artist is Weatherbox, Lifetime Song is Bastille's "Good Grief," and Current Song is "Trying Year" by Captain, We're Sinking - all of which are dead on.

    A little surprised that Linkin Park is my top Current Artist - i know i recently ran through their whole catalogue, but i do that with a lot of bands. Most recently i ran through all of All Time Low and All (...huh.)
