I play all of my music playlists at random and have lists based on my star ratings. The problem comes when randomly playing songs from like Pink Floyd’s Dark Side Of The Moon where the last 3 songs have to be played together or I get terribly annoyed. So, to solve this I have to tell PLex that those songs are just 1 star… and they are some of my favorites, and would love to get them into the rotation. The idea here is to simply link those songs together, give them a 5-star rating, and get them into the rotation and played like the artist intended. ---

A request for the same feature exists already, and it has more votes. > [@Ability to "connect" songs in a playlist so they always play together](https://forums.plex.tv/t/ability-to-connect-songs-in-a-playlist-so-they-always-play-together/537516/1): > > Those of us who like bands that transition seamlessly form one song to the next would love the ability to randomize a playlist, but it always separates those multi-song connected sections. It would be wonderful if there was a way to check a box or something next to songs in a playlist to tell Plex to always play these specific songs in this order, or always shuffle these connected songs together. Therefore this one is closed, to prevent spreading the votes across several threads, even though they vote for the same (or at least very similar thing). Votes are given back to the users who voted on this request.
