Music streaming has made listening to songs incredibly easy. Millions of songs are now available with just one click. But often, people don't know the real story behind a song, how it was created, or what inspired it. To enhance this experience, Spotify is introducing a new feature called 'About the Song'.

This feature will show users short stories and information about songs directly within the app. This means there's no need to search the internet for a song's backstory.

How the New Feature Works

The 'About the Song' feature will appear on Spotify's Now Playing screen. When a user is playing a song, they can scroll down to view the story behind it. The information will be presented in the form of small cards that can be read by swiping.

These cards will include the song's inspiration, its creation story, special facts, and interesting behind-the-scenes tidbits. This will help users create an emotional connection with the song.

Why is this feature being introduced?
Spotify believes that when people know the story behind a song, their experience becomes more special. This makes listening to music not just a habit, but an interactive experience, especially for those interested in artists and songwriting.

Where is it currently available?
This feature is currently in beta and available to Spotify Premium users in some English-speaking countries. This feature will not be visible on all songs as it is currently in testing.

How to use it?
To use this feature, simply open the Spotify app and play a song. Now, scroll down on the Now Playing screen. If the 'About the Song' card appears, swipe it to read the song's story.

This new feature from Spotify is an attempt to make the music listening experience more personal and engaging. This feature may reach even more users in the future.
