# Neglected Song Appreciation Sites The Forgotify Site Features Unlistened to Spotify Songs By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2014-02-02 | Pop Culture Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/forgotify References: [swiss-miss](http://www.swiss-miss.com/2014/01/friday-link-pack-85.html) & [forgotify](http://forgotify.com/) 'Forgotify' is a site that was put together in response to the fact that over four million songs have never even been played once on [Spotify](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spotiguess), which is just about 20% of its songs. So, Forgotify was created by Lane Jordan, J Hausmann and Nate Gagnon to increase the love for some of the [most neglected tracks on Spotify](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/play-nice). The site is quite simple and brings up one randomly-chosen song at a time through a Spotify widget. From there, users can either listen to the song, skip to another unheard to song by clicking "next" or share the track, which will hopefully give the [song more exposure](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tune-tracker) and get it out there to more ears in the world. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.4/10 - Popularity: 30% | Activity: 33% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) > [Internet](https://www.trendhunter.com/internet) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Neglected Song Appreciation:** Discovering and promoting unplayed Spotify songs through specialized sites like Forgotify presents an opportunity to increase exposure for hidden musical gems. - **Music Discovery Platforms:** Creating innovative platforms that focus on uncovering unexplored music within popular streaming services provides a disruptive way to engage music enthusiasts and enhance their listening experiences. - **User-driven Music Curation:** Empowering users to curate and share overlooked songs through customizable playlists or social sharing features presents an opportunity for interactive music discovery and community-building. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Music Streaming:** The neglected song appreciation trend opens up opportunities for music streaming platforms to develop features that highlight and promote undiscovered tracks to captive audiences. - **Digital Marketing:** Utilizing forgotten and unplayed songs as a unique advertising medium allows digital marketers to tap into uncharted territory for targeted campaigns and brand partnerships. - **Data Analytics:** Leveraging data insights from neglected song appreciation platforms can provide music industry professionals with valuable information to inform their decision-making processes regarding marketing strategies, artist promotions, and audience segmentation. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Music Quiz Generators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spotiguess.md) - [Music Discovery Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/music-discovery-app1.md) - [Social Music Sharing](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/favesfm.md) - [Music Profile Generators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spoticulum.md) - [Similar Song-Finding Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/similar-songs-finder.md) - [Poster-Inspired Music Playlists](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lineupsupply.md) - [Personalized Music Finders](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/soundtrack-to-my-life.md) - [Song-Inspired Travel Guides](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/easyjet-spotify.md) - [Music Discovery Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/song-generator.md)
