I was very excited for Siri-Apple Music integration but I switched back recently. Queries like these didn't work:

    * Play top songs from 2010
    * Play some indie rock music 
    * Play Rihanna's most popular song
    * Play this month's top songs
Aside poor voice recognition, even after it got the input right, outcome was terrible.

Siri is very good, but not good enough to fix pop music from the last decade.

Before mocking me pay attention that those are samples. Music I listen to has nothing to do with it. I'm not here to tell people what I'm listening to.

I'm sorry, I was not mocking you, nor your music tastes. I was just making fun of the idea that you can be understood by a piece of software, yet be unhappy with the results. (Especially when it comes to music)

Think about saying: Siri: Play the best song from Justin Bieber.

And maybe being a bit disappointed that it is not quite as awesome as, say, a Led Zeppelin song...
