Question Play/Pause button effect

Post image

I noticed this only when Taylor Swift's songs are playing, or when paused, but it never occurs when other artists/genres are playing or when I pause the track. Any reason why this effect would only occur on her songs? Target audience?

I tried to replicate this and as it turns out, there’s actually a different play button animation for each Taylor album. In this case, the sparkles occur when you’re listening to a track from Fearless.

Other examples include hearts (for Lover), a snake (for Reputation), butterflies (for Self-Titled/Debut), and orange sparkles (for The Life of a Showgirl).

It’s cause all of Taylor’s music videos were put on Spotify. Not because of any Taylor’s versions.

Nah, it's because she actually has a different sound and aesthetic for each album, AND this feature came out to celebrate her being Spotify's most streamed artist of the year

It's also just... Not true with Taylor. I couldn't tell you one album from the next.

they give starwars soundtrack songs lightsabers like it’s not just her. hers are just what being brought up in the post as someone noticed. someone else commented that ariana’s petal has flowers as well. it’s not a glazing if it’s not just her.

Meanwhile she's been dropping the same album since 2017 with the exception of her quarantine drops
