USA President Obama Tweets His Spotify Playlist

Now that is a headline that would’ve made NO sense about 5 years ago. United States of America President Barack Obama uses the online streaming service, Spotify. He decided to Tweet what he is listening to for his 2012 Campaign. If you recall, when he sang a cover of Al Green’s Let’s Stay Together, the sales went up almost 500%. Who knows what is in it for these bands.

If you have Spotify, you can listen to his list here. The bands included Wilco, No Doubt, Arcade Fire, Florence + the Machine, U2, Noah and the Whale, and Bruce Springsteen. The note mentions the songs were picked by his campaign staff, and “include a few of President Obama’s favorites.” So, he picked none, and all of the indie songs were picked by his staff, right? Either way, not too bad.
