You can get that via dbus from the machine running Spotify. Check out my spotify-gnome wrapper script at https://github.com/jreese/spotify-gnome

Basically, you write a simple dbus app that listens for the appropriate song-changed signals from Spotify, and then do with that as you wish. This might not be as easy on Mac or Windows though, as I've only ever used it on Linux.
