Systems and methods for selecting an audio track by performing a gesture on a track-list image are provided. The system includes a processor that performs a method including displaying the audio-track list, detecting a contact with the touchscreen display at a location corresponding to the audio track, detecting a continuous movement of the contact in a direction, detecting a length of the continuous movement, and selecting the audio track if the continuous movement has a length longer than a threshold length. The method includes shifting text associated with the audio track based on the length and direction of the continuous movement. The method includes determining that the selection is a command to queue the audio track for playback or add it to a preparation track list. This determination may be based on the direction of the continuous movement.
