Wukko couldn’t believe it, writing: “spotify just went down how am i supposed to work.” Emma asked: “So with Spotify down… do we just use Youtube like we used to in 2011?”
Lou vented: “why is spotify not working AGAIN.” M highlighted the annoying outage: “my spotify keeps pausing every song after 10 seconds” Steff added: “Waking up to Spotify being down feels like waking up to a note saying your wife has left you and took the kids.”

App Venturist shared their surprise: “I thought I could hate on Spotify engineering because their product choices have been questionable but… My Spotify buffered for the first time today and I restarted my entire internet setup – it never dawned that it could be down. I’ve never seen it down. I think it is…” Diorgvbi lamented the sudden interruption: ” the fact my music just stopped because spotify is down.. i didn’t realise this was possible..”, reports the Express.
Martin summed up everyone’s mood perfectly: “Do something, the silence is deafening.”
Spotify has acknowledged the technical hiccup, with Spotify Status tweeting: “We’re aware of some issues right now and are checking them out!.” It later added: “We are aware of the outage and working to resolve it as soon as possible. The reports of this being a security hack are false.”
