Ok, what am I doing wrong?? I have an Echo and use Amazon music from my Prime membership. If I say, “Alexa, add song to a new playlist”, it asks me what I want to call it and I say, e.g. “Simon”. It says “added song to playlist ‘Simon’”. Happy days, right? Wrong. A few tracks later I say, “Alexa, add song to Simon playlist” and it says...”Sorry, I cannot find a playlist called ‘Simon’”!!
To make it even more infuriating, the playlist is listed in the Amazon My Music screen in the Alexa app!
What’s the deal here? Am I expecting too much by expecting it to, you know, do what it’s supposed to, or is it just buggy??

Following the query for solution

“Following query to solution”.
Is that an instruction, or a statement?

Ok so from the lack of replies and any suggestions, I have to assume that it’s just a bit pants. If it doesn’t integrate very well with it’s own music streaming service, I don’t hold out much hope for 3rd party ones!

I've had similar issues with my Echo Spot & Amazon Music Unlimited.
The other day I asked Alexa to play a song that I knew was on AMU, and no matter how many times I said the title and artist, or how I phrased it, Alexa just could not find the song.
In the end I had to manually add the song to a playlist, and ask Alexa to play the playlist instead. ::)
