My Question or Issue

The Google Home Assistant supports a few quick commands to play songs/artists.

The issue is they don't work the same, and they don't work intuitively! 

 

"Play song X": this starts Song Radio starting with the song you asked for. Unexpected behaviour (bad). Should only play a single song! 

 

"Play song like X"this starts a Song radio starting with the song you asked for. Expected behaviour (good).

 

"Play artist X": this starts a playlist featuring only songs by that artist. Expected behaviour (good).

 

"Play artist like X": this starts the same playlist featuring only songs by that artist. Unexpected behaviour (bad). This should start Artist Radio.

 

I've seen these issues addressed by users over and over again, but they either never get an answer, or the response totally misses the point. Please improve the Voice commands for Google Home for Premium users, so we actually get what we are asking (and paying!) for.
