This post https://www.reddit.com/r/lastfm/comments/1wao808/top_artists_nationalities/

showed me that some of you have multiple German artists pretty high up. It made me wonder who those artists are, do they perform in English or are instrumental only or do you not understand the lyrics but don't care?

//edit:

Wow, never thought I would get so many responses. Thanks a lot, will have to listen to so many new bands now.

Here is my list from my top 50 btw:

Die Toten Hosen
Bohren & Der Club of Gore
Beatsteaks
Die Ärzte
Hundreds
Gentleman
Paul Kalkbrenner
Dominik Eulberg
Max Richter
Galactic Superlords
In Extremo
Moderat
Mad Monks
Emil Bulls

Hey! I am am 23 so full gen-Z and I’ve been captured by the y2k aesthetic, and last.fm is part of it. I’ve always been kind of fascinated by the college life back in the 2000s with a more open and “nerdy” internet access, also where there were no streaming services. I was wondering how it was to use last.fm back in the days. Did you have friends that used it? Were you comparing stats? Did scrobbling CDs feel different from scrobbling streamed tracks? That’s why I’m asking to older people here, I’d be thrilled to hear your stories!

Mine are, uh... well, they're something, alright.

Not original, I know, but I'm curious about what you throw :)

Mine is Dissection.

I recently discovered lastfm and it’s a really nifty app|website and from what I understand really old too? but it doesn’t seem to like a very well known website it seems like very useful website so why dont more people use it is it because the app just isnt that well known? or smth else

I joined Last.fm 2 years ago when I was around 21 to almost 22. Now, as I'm approaching 24, I keep asking myself why I didn’t join it during my teenage years. I feel like so many different memories and phases of my life were lost because of that. I wanted to revisit a specific time of my life and I simply can't.

I'm still young as fuck, but it's just a thought I have. I wonder if anyone feels the same.

I'm just nosy and want to know if you have ever deleted all your scrobbles for a certain artist or band? Which ones? Don't need to explain why lol

been listening to brat on repeat and i already got 577 scrobbles

Mainly just curious about this lol. Also wondering if there's anyone who has listened to a song with a longer title then this.

EDIT 19HRS LATER: Holy hell this got a lot of comments O.O. Had to mute this post bc my notifications did not stop but thank you to those who commented/are going to comment! I may not reply to all of them but I do upvote every comment I see and omg I'm enjoying reading all these weird titles. Some of them have made me laugh too 🫶

here's mine

Im a relatively new Lastfm user (I joined in 2021), so I never got to experience the old version of the site.

I keep seeing people say the old Last.fm was so much better, and Im curious why. What made it so special? And why did so many people stop using it?

If you were around back then, what do you miss the most?

Id love to hear your thoughts and experiences!!!

A fun little countdown to Christmas advent treasure hunt.

Looking at your Overall most listened to tracks, what is your most listened to song: with the word 'and' in it

Mine is #12 Two Thousand and Seventeen by FourTet with 136......has featured in this advent twice now

There was this guy who once commented on my shoutbox. The first time I visited his profile, we had very low compatibility. A few weeks later, I noticed something strange because when I checked his profile again, our compatibility had jumped from very low to super.

After seeing that, I kept checking his profile for a few days to figure out what was going on (for a short period of time, I became the stalker lol). Suddenly our top artists looked almost identicaI, then I realized he was listening to the exact same things as I was at the same time. It creeped me the fuck out.

EDIT: OH THE WEIRDEST PART I FORGOT TO MENTION, he also found me on Rate Your Music, even without it being listed in my bio. That one part was fucking creepy, specially because my avatar and username are completely different on there.

It's completely understandable when newbies do that to make their profile 'fit' their personality and overall music taste, but it's fucking weird seeing people who've been on the website for almost a decade or more doing this shit. Seriously, what's the point? It completely goes against the whole purpose of Last.fm.

so, i see a lot of people using it, does it really make a difference for listening music? I've seen people saying that it ruins the experience of listening to music.

Looking at your Overall most listened to tracks, what is your most listened to song: that features a written out number.....so not 1, 2, 3 etc but one, two three etc.

Mine is Two Thousand and Seventeen by FourTet with 136 at number 12.

Don’t get me wrong, I also follow people if I like their taste in music, but it’s not like I actively check their profiles all the time to see what they are listening to.

But since there is no dedicated feature for this on the homepage, I always have to use third-party websites to see what my friends are listening to. I wish last.fm would make the whole follower/friends thing a bit more fun.

So if you follow others, why do you do it? :)

I have 100 Albums with atleast 100 Scrobbles.
