If you are pushing 30 or are older you probably remember VH1's show "Pop Up Video". In this series VH1 would add all kinds of interesting facts in the form of conversational bubbles. Facts about artists, lyrics, video shoot locations, and other stories were included. Having this extra insight to the music you were listening to was very entertaining.
Spotify is about to bring us a similar feature to their music playing app. The new feature "Behind The Lyrics" will integrate both lyrics and fun facts via the "Genius" library in the form of annotations. This will launch first on the iPhone version of the app. The first playlist will focus on hip hop, and the next will be labeled "Behind The Lyrics HITS".
