Unlock Your Musical Year with Amazon Music's 2024 Delivered

Discovering Your Listening Habits

To access your 2024 Delivered, simply open the Amazon Music app on your iOS or Android device and navigate to the Library page. By tapping on “2024 Delivered,” you can effortlessly access your “Top Songs 2024” playlist. Just like other popular music services like Apple Music, Spotify, and YouTube Music, Amazon Music also offers shareable animated cards that vividly display your listening stats. This allows you to share your musical journey with friends and family.Moreover, 2024 Delivered goes beyond the ordinary by showcasing your favorite podcasts. It also highlights the most requested song that you've asked Alexa to play. For Amazon Music listeners with Alexa devices, there's an added surprise - a special message from one of their favorite artists of the year. Those selected will notice their Alexa device flashing a yellow light, indicating the presence of a message. This unique feature provides a distinct experience compared to other music streaming apps and makes full use of Amazon's advanced virtual assistant.

Comparing with Previous Features

Previously, Amazon Music offered a My Year in Review playlist to compete with Spotify Wrapped. However, this earlier feature was quite limited as it only showcased 50 to 100 of the most popular tracks based on yearly statistics, without providing specific data or shareable insights. In contrast, 2024 Delivered aims to offer a more comprehensive and comparable experience. It delves deeper into your listening habits and presents a more detailed summary.

Timing with Other Services

The launch of 2024 Delivered coincides with the time when other music streaming services also launched their yearly recap experiences. Apple Music unveiled its 2024 Replay feature on Tuesday, introducing “listening streaks” that highlight the longest consecutive days users have listened to music on the platform. On Monday, YouTube Music released its 2024 Recap feature, offering listeners three new statistics: a personalized summary of their music preferences, a timeline showcasing key moments from the year, and an alter ego based on their most listened-to tracks and artists.While Spotify's highly anticipated Wrapped stats haven't arrived yet, it is expected to happen soon. This shows the growing trend of music streaming services providing personalized yearly recap features, and Amazon Music is at the forefront with its 2024 Delivered.
