Beyond Wrapped
Wrapped shows what you played. Frisson shows why one song gets you.
Frisson is not a stats tool. It doesn't connect to your Spotify account or read your listening history. It asks one question, what song gives you chills, and tells you why that song moves you.
Name your songHow they differ
Spotify Wrapped is Spotify's yearly recap of your listening. It counts. Frisson asks about the one song that still gives you chills, and goes looking for the reason.

FrissonThe one song you name.
When
WrappedOnce a year, usually in early December.
FrissonAny day you like.

WrappedA Spotify account and a year of listening.
FrissonOne song. Free, no password.
If what you want is year-round listening stats, a stats tool that connects to your account is the better fit. Frisson is for a different question.
Why one song
A year of streams tells you what was on. The song that gives you chills tells you something else: what you find beautiful, and why. The shiver has a name, frisson, and researchers have studied it for four decades. The mechanism is shared. The song that sets it off is yours.
