Some of the ways that clients can request music from Gemini include; song, album, artist, playlist, genre, and many others. For instance, you can tell Gemini to “play me rock music radio” or “play music that I like” which plays songs from the Liked Music playlist. Next, Gemini will present a card that includes the album cover, the name of the artist, the length of the song, and the number of plays.
Not only can Gemini play music, but it is also possible to control different aspects of playback with it. With such commands as “pause”, “resume or play”, “stop”, “skip or next”, “previous” and “restart or go back”, the users are also able to interact with the YouTube music service without handling the gadget. However, background play is only available on Android devices for YouTube Music Premium subscribers.
