I'm pretty sure I'd know already if I was gay.

I dunno, you ever sucked a dick?
Yeah but it was attached to a woman so I’m still gay
Huh? How?
Well if a woman does sexual acts on another woman it’s considered gay

I was placed in Berkeley. I'm not gay but maybe my taste in music is.
It gave me Burlington. #1 listened artist last year: The Beastie Boys. I sometimes think its less artificial intelligence and more a random number picker.
My top genre was "indie québécois" and it placed me in Québec, so it's at least smart enough to figure that out.
Bozeman, Montana.
Fine with me, that's where Zefram Cochrane launched the first human-built warp vessel.
Me too, and I missed that reference, shame on me. However Spotify said it was because I like both rock and blues
Now it’s head-canon that Spotify called me a Trekkie! It even fits with all the rest of you who are apparently learning you’re gay

This headline broke my brain. I know what Spotify is but not "Spotify Wrapped" so I kept reading it like my Spotify had wrapped something but "Place" next to it just would not compute.
Basically it's a year in review of your Spotify listening

I got Burlington! I'm not gay as far as I'm aware but whenever someone asks me what kind of music I like in the future, the answer will be "gay music".
I was placed in Salt Lake City, Utah. I guess I'm Mormon?
You guess? Statistically, you are so Mormon, Spotify knows what kind of underwear you have on.
Helsinki, Finland.
A metalhead spotted
Do you by chance listen to a lot of death metal?
A lot yes, but more Black Metal.
I'm gay and I was somewhere in Germany. Mainly due to the black metal and one American band that is insanely popular in Germany for some reason.
So much so that they recorded their live 20 year anniversary somewhere there
Which American band is that?
Yeah, I guess I could have said their name lol. Boysetsfire. I think they're from Delaware originally. They were political melodic hardcoreish at the beginning so I still jam their first few records hard. But they have a huge following in Germany.
All of my friends who listen to sad lesbian music got Burlington or Berkley.
Technically bi (though my tastes lean gay), I was put in Glasgow for listening to a lot of Steps and CHVRCHES... Given that Glasgow was on the running to host the Gay Olympics this year I guess it could be a close equivalent?
Seeing "Gay Olympics" made me go "wut?", so of course I clicked the link, and it immediately made sense.
My wife and I share an account. We got Cambridge. Good thing she came out as bi or else we would be having a strange conversation soon
Well let's go find out if I'm gay.
Edit: Nope, not gay unfortunately.
It never gave me a city. It worked for my partner. I'm kinda pissed I wasted my time on this.
Hahaha I was assigned Burlington by this year's wrapped. Guess I'm moving to the lesbian commune out in Vermont.
I see the gay agenda is proceeding as planned
Yep, I got Burlington with The Mountain Goats, Fleet Foxes, and Julia Jacklin.
I'm a straight, cis guy but my friends often tell me I listen to 'sad boi' music so 🤷🏽.
Pittsburgh
San Francisco. Apparently progressive trance is popular there? Idk
Vancouver.
Did you feel foolish for subscribing to...fucking anything?? points to the Jolly Roger
No, I don't feel foolish for having basically humanity's entire music library available to me on a service.
When I used to pirate off SoulSeek I was a lot more limited in what I listened to, but Spotify is more than just a music service as it acts as a reliable way to discover new and old music to your liking.
Piracy is a service problem, and Spotify is a good service.

I got Eugene, OR, which seemed pretty accurate. Seattle, where I actually live, seems more accurate, but I guess not. For anyone curious, my most listened genres were alternative rock, rock, post grunge....
I have an account that was used for very limited streaming to a couple of artists. Spotify placed it at Estonia for some reason. None of the artists I listened to are even close to the general area.
