President Obama will now take your song requests.

President Obama's team has set up a page on BarackObama.com for voters to submit potential campaign songs that could be added to his Obama 2012 Supporter Picks playlist on Spotify.

"As we head into rally season, what music gets you fired up?" the page asks. "Submit your favorite tracks below, and you could see them on the Obama 2012 Supporter Picks playlist on Spotify."

Spotify is a music streaming site that gives users free access to millions of tracks on their computers and mobile devices. It also allows users to create playlists, see what their friends are listening to and to download third-party apps to discover everything from song lyrics to recommendations.

Obama's team is no stranger to using Spotify to get the word out about his campaign and connecting with supporters. In February, they introduced their first playlist which featured songs from a variety of artists, from Bruce Springsteen and Earth Wind & Fire to No Doubt, Florence + The Machine and Sugarland. It also featured "Let's Stay Together" by Al Green, which Obama sang a few weeks earlier at the Apollo Theater in New York.

In other presidential news, Obama also declared his support for same-sex marriage in an interview with ABC News Wednesday.
