Many times, while listening to Spotify, I'd like to know what is the name of the current track. But I don't want to go to the app, breaking my current workflow, to just learn that information. Besides, I'm lazy.

So this little script does just what I want–displays notification with the name and artist of the currently played track in Spotify. It can be assigned to a keyboard shortcut using steps from this article.
