Okay so last Tuesday I decided I wanted to hear more stuff from Melissa Star, that cool singer, right? Problem was, I knew like one song she did that was stuck in my head but couldn’t remember the darn title properly. Felt like I was chasing a ghost online.
My Annoying Morning Search Disaster
Started out just like anyone else, totally clueless. Popped open my usual search site – you know the big one? Just typed “Melissa Star music” in the box and hit enter. Big mistake.
- First page? Full of articles talking ABOUT her, some random interviews. Useless.
- Scrolled down: Found links to shops, but man, none of them felt like the real place to find her songs.
- Clicked one: Ended up on a weird page trying to sell me headphones. Seriously?
Felt like I was wasting my time big time. How hard can it be to find one person’s songs?
Getting Smart – Actually Checking Her Space
After that flop, I remembered something basic. Maybe I should actually look where SHE might put her stuff. So, even though I wasn’t sure it would work, I tried putting her name directly into the big video site’s search bar – fingers crossed.
- Boom! Top result! An official channel popped right up with her name and picture.
- Clicked the channel: Saw a list of all her tunes right there.
- Scrolled through: Finally found that one buzzing in my head!
Why didn’t I just do THAT first? Felt kinda dumb, but at least I found the motherlode.
Playlist Time – Making it Easy Later
Since I was already there and had the channel open, I figured why not save myself the next headache?
- Found the “Save” button somewhere near her channel name.
- Clicked it: A little box popped up asking where to save it.
- Just picked “Watch Later”: Quick and dirty fix so I wouldn’t lose her again.
Now it just sits in my list on that video site whenever I log in. Easy peasy.
Double-Checking the Goods – Her Tracks
Before I got too excited, I wanted to be sure I found her actual music files, not just videos. Switched over to one of the big music-only spots.
- Searched “Melissa Star”: Held my breath…
- Relief! Her artist page came up front and center.
- Scrolled her catalog: Same songs I saw on the video site, listed properly as tracks I could play. Perfect match.
Phew. At least I knew it was legit stuff across platforms.
Tagging Her Name Right – The Final Step
My last move? Making sure if anyone in my house ever wanted to play her stuff through our smart speakers, they wouldn’t get tangled up like I did.
- Opened my big music app: Went straight to the search bar.
- Played with search words: Tried just “Melissa”. Bad idea – too many others popped up.
- Typed “Melissa Star” together: That did it. Got just her albums.
So now everyone knows: use her full name, “Melissa Star”, when asking the speaker. Learned that lesson the messy way for everyone!
Total time wasted initially? Maybe half an hour being dumb. Now? Takes two seconds to find her music. Hopefully this helps someone else skip the frustration part!
