Thanks for the follow, that's very nice of you.
Generally the way I do things is, if you engage me in conversation, and it goes ok, I'll usually follow back.
But you don't have to either, if you just want to read and have a chuckle, that's fine too. I'm highly introverted, I get it.

What I'd like is something which makes a text file, of the songs on my Spotify playlists.
Is something like that available?
I would like this because I want to close my Spotify soon.

I am grateful to the many artists though the 70s and 80s who made music, what you did collectively, probably did more to keep me sane, than anything else could have.
Thankyou.
