My Question or Issue

Songs that I've been listening to repeatedly (specifically songs from the 2003 Wicked Soundtrack & the anniversaries) Are not appearing on my On Repeat, whereas songs I've only listened to once or twice get shot up to the top of my On Repeat and songs I haven't listened to in weeks are at the bottom. It's like spotify is acting like I'm an inactive user and is ignore the songs I'm actually listening to. Even my last.fm shows just how much I've been listening to certain tracks, but spotify won't. This isn't the first time I've had an issue with the On Repeat playlist this year. I don't know if it's some sort of glitch, but when I've played from the Wicked movie soundtrack a few times, it had no trouble appearing on my On Repeat. The only thing affected by this weird glitch is the original Wicked soundtrack.

Hi there @msgaunt,

Thanks for reaching out. 

On Repeat and other generated playlists depend on many factors for how the tracks within them are chosen. If this is so far the first and only time there has been some discrepancy, we recommend listening to your music further and in due time the algorithm will adjust. The more you play your favourite music, add it to your Liked Songs and playlists and overall engage with it, the better the recommendations will adapt to you.

If you however notice consistent and significant discrepancies in the recommendations you get, please let us know as that may be something worth investigating. 

Hope this clears things up.

I've had this problem for over a month easily on a song i have constantly playing over and over and it just refuses to appear.  Usually it updates within two weeks and a common song appears eventually.  I feel though that i'm way passed the usual observed window

artist: "Cannons"

song name: "Golden - Originally Performed By Harry Styles" 

update, this song is also not appearing in my girlfriend's "On Repeat" list as well.  I suspect there's an attribute missing for this song in database that is also leading to the minutes not being tallied for spotify wrapped.

There are also two entries for this song.  Meaning I can add both to my "Liked" list and im playing them both with very high frequency to determine whether or not one of the songs has the issue.  After some time though, neither of the two have appeared on repeat

Hey @musicnvibes,

Thanks for the feedback!
Let us know in case you happen to spot any other song that behaves this way 🙂 Much appreciated!

I had been listening to it consistently for over 2 weeks, still nothing. My On Repeat would update every 2-5 days and as I pointed out, other songs I played maybe once or twice within that time frame would have no issue shooting to the top of my On Repeat, but the songs I was actually listening to regularly were nowhere to be found.

was this escalated to the development team? or are you guys limited in capacity to only tend to widespread issues? I'm entertaining closing my account and opening up a new one as a form of troubleshooting but it depends on what level of attention you think this will get.  would hate to respawn my account though after having it so long.  but this particular issue is one of those things i get reminded of daily so its hard to just "ignore it" because of my OCD
