TWITCH CHAT MUSIC REQUESTS

A song request bot that keeps the streamer in control.

Afterglow turns !sr song artist, YouTube links, and Spotify track links into one moderated playback queue. Viewers get a simple request command; you get the final say over what plays.

HOW IT WORKS

From chat message to playable queue.

Connect Twitch

Authorize your creator account so Afterglow can identify your channel, listen for request commands, and optionally post status updates as the streamer.

Viewers type !sr

A request can be a song and artist, a YouTube URL, or a Spotify track link. Afterglow normalizes the request and searches for a strong playable match.

You moderate the queue

Play now, remove, drag to reorder, skip, return to a previous track, pause requests, or clear played songs from the dashboard or compact OBS dock.

Playback keeps moving

Unavailable videos are bounded and skipped instead of retrying forever. Backup playlists, Taste Auto-fill, and No Copyright Mode can fill quiet periods.

BUILT FOR LIVE CHAT

Useful moderation without killing the vibe.

Accurate matching

Song and artist weighting favors official and original versions while respecting requests for remixes, covers, or live performances.

Queue control

Review what is next, change the order, immediately play a request, or delete a track without losing the rest of the queue.

Failure protection

Afterglow remembers failed candidates for the current request and reports when no available match can be found.

FREQUENT QUESTIONS

Before you connect your channel.

Does Afterglow play Spotify directly?

No. Spotify links provide track metadata, which Afterglow uses to find a matching YouTube playback source for the shared queue.

Do viewers need an account?

No. Viewers request songs directly in the connected Twitch chat. Only the streamer needs an Afterglow account.

Does a music subscription grant broadcast rights?

No. Streamers remain responsible for music permissions and platform policies. Afterglow organizes requests and overlays; it does not sell music licenses.
