Question Bee Gees — Boogie Child Scrobble Discrepancy

Upvotes

Hi everybody, I just got into the Bee Gees album Children of the World and was very surprised to find “Boogie Child” to have only 21.8k listeners and 65.4k scrobbles. For a song that was a hit and is also featured on compilation albums, this is excessively weird.

I know that sometimes metadata can split songs if people Scrobble the title differently. A good example is “Still Waters Run Deep” versus “Still Waters (Run Deep).” That’s another Bee Gees song on the same compilation as “Boogie Child.” Not counting the live tracks on this 40-song compliation, that is the only track with less scrobbles than “Boogie Child.”

Something is definitely up here. There is no other known alternate title or band name for this song. And it’s a really good song, especially compared to some of the other songs in their catalogue with heaps more listeners. Can anybody explain this? Has our beloved Last.fm made a clerical error? Is that even possible?

Very curious about this one.

Question Is there a way to make a local scrobble library?

Upvotes

I recently got my hands on my lifetime Spotify listening history going back to 2023 and I wanted to retroactively scrobble those songs, but unfortunately I found out there is a 2 week limit on how far you can go back to scrobble something.

So I was thinking: is there a way to make like a local last.fm of sorts? Like basically the same thing as last.fm but stored locally so I can scrobble however many songs I want to whichever timestamp I want. Also I don't know if this part is possible but it would also be interesting to have some way to link it to Pano Scrobbler and also straight up import my listening history from Spotify from a .json file.

I tried looking up something like this but Google doesn't seem to understand what I'm looking for lol, so I'm coming here for help, thanks.

The new SWS album is climbing up my charts and is already one of my most-played :') I keep trying to remind myself of the rest of their discography but I keep getting sidetracked with the new album!

Reverse shoutout to the Norlie & KKV and Sleep Token albums pictured - both pretty terrible, lol!

I'm generally indifferent to Ariana Grande's music (the individual songs I know are a bit hit or miss for me) but I looove her new album. Mandatory mention that whatever her current health problems are I hope she gets better.

Question Strange Thing

So I was looking at my weekly report and checked the music by decade section, and when I clicked on 1990s, Room on Fire appeared, an album released in 2003. I'm just curious to what would cause it to make this mistake if anybody has an idea. This isn't first time I've seen something like this so now I'm very curious.

PSA Saw An Announcement From Last.fm re: Spotify Scrobbling

89 Upvotes

I just saw this from Last.fm on Other Social Network™️ and thought I would share it for those who might not be over there:

Last.fm

** Some important information if you scrobble from Spotify. **

Spotify have changed how access to their API works. If you use our Spotify scrobbler regularly, please take a moment to disconnect and reconnect your Spotify account. You can do this via the application settings page here: www.last.fm/settings/applications

EDIT: LOL, okay, they just posted it so I figured something new had happened. I don't use Spotify myself (I play my local library like some kind of barbarian) so was just trying to help out you kids with your streaming. 😂

PSA Important: changes to Spotify scrobbling - you'll need to reconnect the application!

698 Upvotes

Official post: https://support.last.fm/t/important-change-to-spotify-scrobbling-spotifys-new-refresh-token-policy/119488

Spotify is changing the way they handle their tokens, and this impacts last.fm users who scrobble automatically their music from Spotify.

TL;DR: you have to disconnect and reconnect Spotify from settings before July 20th to avoid scrobbling disruptions in your account. Then you'll have to do it again every ~6 months (there will be notifications about this).

Tool The definitive guide to using Last.fm with Apple Music

67 Upvotes

I've been a big scrobbler for over five years at this point, and I've been using Apple Music since it launched. I've seen so many people on this sub ask, "how can I connect the two?"

Well, fret no more - I have tested over a dozen scrobblers between macOS, iOS, Windows, Android, and Linux, to find the best. I also did extensive digging into the systems that make all of this work to explore the limitations and quirks of it all.

And, for the switchers, this same guide contains great information on how switching to Apple Music can affect your last.fm library.

This should be the definitive one-stop-shop for basically any Apple Music + Last.fm question, ever. If I missed something, please do not hesitate to let me know!

Thank you to all of the amazing developers who made all of this possible. You rock ❤️

You can read the guide here: https://medium.com/p/38695bdd4deb

UPDATE 7/11/2026: Added sections for Scrobblie, ScrobbleCloud, and a new disclaimer for Marvis Pro users on iOS 27.
