Spotify\u2019s new feature, Song Psychic, can apparently answer your questions with a simple song response. Users can ask questions, either written themselves or via prompts within the app, and get an answer in song form.<\/p>\n<p>The song itself, the artist, and the album cover appear on your screen, with the option to click through and listen to the song if you choose. If not, you can revert back to the home screen and get the answers to more of your most burning questions.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_257463\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-257463\" style=\"width: 333px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-257463 \" alt=\"\" width=\"333\" height=\"616\" srcset=\"https:\/\/readwrite.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Spotify-Song-Psychic-Screenshot-2-e1709320681746-162x300.jpg 162w, https:\/\/readwrite.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Spotify-Song-Psychic-Screenshot-2-e1709320681746-389x719.jpg 389w, https:\/\/readwrite.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Spotify-Song-Psychic-Screenshot-2-e1709320681746-87x160.jpg 87w, https:\/\/readwrite.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Spotify-Song-Psychic-Screenshot-2-e1709320681746-832x1536.jpg 832w, https:\/\/readwrite.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Spotify-Song-Psychic-Screenshot-2-e1709320681746.jpg 1045w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 333px) 100vw, 333px\" src=\"https:\/\/readwrite.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Spotify-Song-Psychic-Screenshot-2-e1709320681746-162x300.jpg\"\/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-257463 \" src=\"https:\/\/readwrite.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Spotify-Song-Psychic-Screenshot-2-e1709320681746-162x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"333\" height=\"616\" srcset=\"https:\/\/readwrite.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Spotify-Song-Psychic-Screenshot-2-e1709320681746-162x300.jpg 162w, https:\/\/readwrite.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Spotify-Song-Psychic-Screenshot-2-e1709320681746-389x719.jpg 389w, https:\/\/readwrite.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Spotify-Song-Psychic-Screenshot-2-e1709320681746-87x160.jpg 87w, https:\/\/readwrite.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Spotify-Song-Psychic-Screenshot-2-e1709320681746-832x1536.jpg 832w, https:\/\/readwrite.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Spotify-Song-Psychic-Screenshot-2-e1709320681746.jpg 1045w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 333px) 100vw, 333px\"\/><\/noscript><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-257463\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image: <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/aleksliving\/status\/1763364062254010563?s=20\">Spotify<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Spotify users are taking to X to share examples of some of Song Psychic\u2019s answers.

This will open Song Psychic in the Spotify app.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll be presented with several categories, ranging from friends &amp; family and love to career and style. Once you\u2019ve picked the right topic for your question, you can either type in a question of your own or pick from one of the app\u2019s many prompts.<\/p>\n<p>After a few seconds of deliberating, where you\u2019re left staring at a psychedelic screen, Song Psychic will return with a song that answers your question. It\u2019s a fun little feature but does seem to be a bit repetitive. We tried out five questions and got Lorde\u2019s Green Light three times. Of course, it\u2019s an easy way to say \u2018go ahead\u2019 or \u2018yes,\u2019 but we don\u2019t think it\u2019s necessarily based on some sign from the greater powers that be out there.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Featured image: Spotify<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<div class=\"about-author\">\n<div class=\"author-info\">\n<div class=\"author-avatar col-md-2\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/readwrite.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Headshot-Photographer-Edinburgh-Donna-Green-RD-4-scaled-250x250.jpg 2x\" class=\"avatar avatar-125 photo\" height=\"125\" width=\"125\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/readwrite.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Headshot-Photographer-Edinburgh-Donna-Green-RD-4-scaled-125x125.jpg\"\/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/readwrite.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Headshot-Photographer-Edinburgh-Donna-Green-RD-4-scaled-125x125.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/readwrite.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Headshot-Photographer-Edinburgh-Donna-Green-RD-4-scaled-250x250.jpg 2x\" class=\"avatar avatar-125 photo\" height=\"125\" width=\"125\" decoding=\"async\"\/><\/noscript>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<p><!-- .author-avatar --><\/p>\n<div class=\"author-description col-md-10\">\n<h3 class=\"author-title\"><a href=\"https:\/\/readwrite.com\/author\/rachaeldavis\/\">Rachael Davis<\/a><\/h3>\n<h5 class=\"author-role\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tFreelance Journalist<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h5>\n<p class=\"author-bio\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/rachdaviesetc\/\">Rachael Davies<\/a>&#13;<br \/>\nhas spent six years reporting on tech and entertainment, writing for publications like the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.standard.co.uk\/author\/rachael-davies\">Evening Standard<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.huffingtonpost.co.uk\/author\/rachael-davies\">Huffington Post<\/a>, Dazed, and more.
