So I was taking a look at the spotify web api and it apparently allows you to play a preview of the song, but I was wondering if there is any way to play the full spotify song without having to open up the official spotify web player or desktop app. Thanks

Update: There is a now a way to play full tracks! Read more at Spotify's Developer site, and @arirawr's answer to this question.

Previous answer: No, there's currently no way to play the full song using the Web API. If you want full tracks to be playable from a website, you can use the Spotify Play Button. If you want to build a mobile application, you can do playback of full tracks using the Android and/or iOS SDK.
