If I thumbs down a weird version, will it kick the song out of my rotation?

I can't stand all these remixed, alternative, remastered songs on Pandora.

Why does Pandora insist on playing multiple versions, remakes, remastered, remixes of songs? Just give me the original album version please. I don't know if I thumbs down the weird version if it will kick the song out of my rotation.

Hi @Fordtech61 , thanks for posting.

Sorry for the trouble tuning your stations.

That's correct, if you give a consistent Thumbs Down on the remixed versions, your station will learn to not play them again.

Also, when you give a thumb down it won't play again on that specific station. Thumbs are station specific, so please feel free to Thumb Up and Thumb Down accordingly. Giving a Thumb rating on one station will not affect any of your other stations.

Let me know if you have questions about this!

I am so happy to learn this. I’ve been with Pandora for years. Sometimes when you’re listening to one artist, you don’t always want to hear certain other artists. But I was afraid that thumbing down what affect my other playlist.
