Spotify Analyzes Relationships To Find Out If Your Love Is Off The Charts
By Alexa Heah, 10 Feb 2023
To some, having a partner with compatible music tastes is a key metric to the success of a relationship, while for others, it doesn’t matter as long as everything’s sectioned off into “yours” and “mine” playlists.
No matter where you fall on the scale, Spotify is here to analyze how similar couples are when listening to music. And for Valentine’s Day, a special Blend playlist will let you know if your love is on the rise, “pass the aux pair,” or simply “off the charts.”
While the Blend feature isn’t new, the Valentine’s Day update will allow pairs to see how musically compatible they are with their loved ones. Simply click on “create a blend,” invite your Valentine, and voilà—it’s time to face the music.
For those looking to just chill with a pre-made playlist, Spotify has invited none other than smooth crooner Michael Bublé himself to come up with a mix, all of which will be featured in the special Love Ballads playlist.
Previous years have shown that listeners favor songs including Taylor Swift’s Love Story, Al Green’s Let’s Stay Together, Make You Feel My Love by Adele, and John Mayer's Your Body Is A Wonderland for Valentine’s Day tunes.
What will the song of choice be this year? Time to place your bets.
