Topic: Spotify Search Broken?
I have started using spotify for the occasional song that i may not have, it is quite handy for that.

Im not sure if others have noticed this but one issue i noticed is that it returns way too many search results when i look for a song
many of the songs which are returned do not have either the same artist or song title, so the actual song becomes like a needle in a haystack.

in the following example " Dinestya Angelito - La Iguana"
If i type in the words ' Iguana dinestya ' , I get 100 results, the actual song I want will not come up at all (dozens of songs which contain neither of these searchwords do come up.

if i add the word angelito
now i get 74 results, of which the song i want is way way down the list, again surrounded by other songs which have just one word in common, or in some cases no words in common.

The end result is that what could be a very easy method of getting your hands on a song, becomes well.. a little harder than it needs to be (especially when under pressure DJing) . please see the images for examples.

I should add that my local search doesnt have this problem. it gives me results that contain the exact words.

Yes I noticed the same thing when I was testing it recently. Results seem very random.
