how to block one song from options

mtkth

So I like country music, and would usually say "Hey, Google, play country music" and Apple's country music would play. However, Tim McGraw has come out with the song "Country and Western" and now when I ask for country music, it will only play that song! 

I can go to Pandora, but I liked the Apple country music station, and even if I specify "play country music on Apple", it will often still play the Tim McGraw song. Is there a way to get it to stop playing/ignore/ban that one song? I've done some browsing and can't figure it out. 

 

Thanks for any advice!

Hi mtkth,

 

Thanks for reaching out.

 

I appreciate the details you've shared. Have you tried to change the command to "Ok Google, play country music playlist from Apple Music". Let me know if this command works so we can check other options.

 

Lastly, let's also try this to other music service to see if we're also getting the same results.

 

Let me know how it goes.

 

Best,

Princess

Yes, that does work, but is longer!  I liked just saying "play country" and it would do the longer playlist. I was hoping to avoid having to go out to the full alternate sentence. 

But I guess it's not as easy to block an individual song.

Thanks for the help.
