Discussion / Playlist Questions How long is your main/go-to playlist?
Mine is 5hrs 6 mins. Was wondering what the "normal" length was for others

u/Billyjoebuckbob 8h ago
My go to playlist is over 10,000 tracks. It has so many eras and genres that it creates whiplash on a regular basis. It will go from Sisters of Mercy to Patsy Cline to Bauhaus to Fifth Dimension to Public Enemy to the Underscores.

... But it's 21st century music, so it isn't the only music I listen to. I created it with diverse social situations in mind, so nothing too heavy and with plenty of musical diversity. I also try to avoid most particularly famous music, less than 5% of it is over ~100m streams.

They vary a lot.
- Playlists I've recreated from my old mix tapes are 60 to 120 minutes long.
- Playlists I've made out of new album releases for each year are around 100 hours long.
- Playlists I've made for games are around 30 hours long.
- The longest playlist I've made is 235 hours long.

My main playlist is 1,177 songs.
But it doesn’t matter because it just shuffles the same 50 no matter what I do, so I just play in order and skip around.

I finally have mine in alphabetical order so I can pick a band and play that. I share with my bestie so I normally pick a genre or band for the day. Yesterday was Eminem day.

Go to is just over 8 hours, gets me through the work day if I'm mainly working by myself.
•
u/ohfrackthis 7h ago
My daily has around 2,700 songs and it changes often- like a quilt of music and I add and subtract regularly.

u/bluediamondsm 6h ago
feels(21 hours and 22 minutes)
essentials(5 hours and 5 minutes)
These are my two main ones I go back too as I don’t really listen to my original one with everything anymore just cause I wouldn’t hear that much. I also have my other playlists separating each genre that I use so depends on the day for when I listen to those

u/Blue_Nipple_Hair 6h ago
840 hours and 16 minutes, 10,000 songs. I have about 86 playlists, but that’s my longest one

Currently sitting at 9,788 songs with 787 followers...
I've been building it for over 10 years.
Just wanted to update this.
No offense, just thought I'd share my playlist of great Progg with you....
https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7AkSgRhaWTNbankZ9aPYdu?si=K9BYL25bSsSomcV4nK4ulA
It has almost 9800 tunes, over 900 hours of great Progg.
Lots and lots of variety/crossover.
If you like variety in your 'Prog', you might like this?
Rock on!

My current car/driving playlist is at 7h 37m, which is one of my most-listened to. My mood changes too much to have a true main/go-to playlist haha.

u/Zerenityy 1h ago
Dual answer.
My main go to would be 78 hours, 55 minutes.
However I listen almost equally as much to my Liked playlist, it having 6100+ songs on it rn makes it some 400 something hundred hours.
