Seamless playback within the same song, while switching to a different playlist

Question

Sometimes I search for new music, start playing the top songs of an artist I don't know yet. And when I find a great track I would like to continue listening to it in the order of her album. Of course, I could add the album's tracks to my queue, but it would be so much easier, if I could simply click on the play-button of that same song and it keeps playing seamlessly. That way you could jump between playlists, top songs, albums etc. (as long as they share a song) without any interruption and without having to add and delete songs to your queue. I think that would be rather intuitive anyhow, but to make it extra easy to understand, a variation of the speaker symbol could be displayed with the song playing in every other place of Spotify.

Hi Marco, exactly. But other than by adding those tracks to the queue in my vision, the list of tracks changes every time I switch into a different list... hmm, hard to explain. Maybe it's easier with an example: 1. When I click on the top track of the artist alt-J, my queue looks like this:– Left Hand Free– Every Other Freckle– Breezeblocks– Hunger Of The Pine– Warm Foothills– Nara– Fitzpleasure– and so on... 2. When the track "Breezeblocks" is playing I am hooked and say "Cool, let me listen to the album from that point on". I switch to the album and then click on the playing song "Breezeblocks". My queue then looks like this:– Breezeblocks– (Guitar)– Something Good– and so on... until the end of the album 3. When the track "Something Good" is playing I find that this song is the wave I want to ride and search for a playlist with that song, so I click on "alt-J Something Good" by one Amanda McGlaughlin and my queue changes to this:– Something Good– Just A Girl– Shimmer - Single Version– Float On– and so on... So, instead of having to switch to my queue and delete the tracks I now don't want to listen to anymore (the ones from the album) and instead of having to listen to ALL of the songs of the artist after my added songs are played through, I have a simple one-click-control of what is playing next – always according to my current mood and without any interruption (could be a cool way to sonicate a party as well). I hope that makes it more clear. If not, please let me know. Best regardsAlexander
