Playing single song should not add album to "up next" queue

Feature Suggestions

When you press 'play' it should add whatever you are 'playing' to the up next queue.  Currently, it correctly adds a whole album to the 'up next' queue if you play an album.  However, when you play an individual song, it also adds the whole album to the queue.  If one wants to add the album there is already a mechanism for that.  This behavior for how playing a song effects the queue is undesirable for a few reasons:

 

  1. It is therefore difficult to create a list of songs to play next, the fundamental reason one would want a queue. Currently one needs to play a song, delete all the songs from the queue, then one can proceed to add songs to the queue.
  2. It makes it more difficult to make playlists from a list of songs.
  3. It violates the principle of least astonishment.

Please fix this :)

 

Also, I did search the forums trying to find anyone reporting this but couldn't find it. I apologize if this is a duplicate but was surprised this issue wasn't more commonly reported.

2021 clean-up: playing a song will queue the subsequent songs; to play only a single song, use Play Next to queue just that song (“implemented”)
