Category: Playlist

Listen, before you get into this playlist, I’d just like to say: we all deal with the stress of the election in our own way. My way just happened to be “open YouTube, search for ‘tiktok thirst trap compilation’, and switch off my brain.” Which I mention because there’s a clear trend in where I picked up music this month.

And, down here at the bottom, strategically placed just to make sure people see that there are these little notes below it, here’s the Apple Music playlist link.

1. “I’m going to sing my Friday night song.” “What’s it about?” “Friday.” “Oh-“ is a hilarious way to start a song. ↩
2. New Imogen Heap? In 2024? It’s more likely than you think! ↩
3. I still can’t decide if I actually like this song, there’s some bits where the ‘slowed’ part feels like it wasn’t done quite right. ↩
4. I haven’t at any point looked up what the lyrics are and tried to translate them, I just enjoy that the vibe of this song is “absolutely filthy” ↩
5. I’d call this song “a gateway drug to Christmas music.” ↩
6. This… feels like a song my dad would’ve liked. ↩
7. This month has featured new Lady Gaga, new Bon Iver, and new Imogen Heap. Wild. ↩
8. All I can think with this song is “girl, you don’t actually want to date that man, he’s gonna be toxic as hell.” ↩

I think this may be the longest one of these I’ve ever posted? Gosh, it’s almost like I’m trying to distract myself from something.

On a happier(?) note, a reader¹ asked me to try sharing a link to the entire playlist on Apple Music, in addition to the per-song thing I usually do, so I’m making an attempt at that; please enjoy the naming scheme I use when rotating these playlists out.

1. Apparently I have readers? Hello, readers! ↩
2. I vehemently disagree with some of the Lyrics Genius analysis of this song. Not enough to make an account and write up my own, but still. ↩
3. I don’t know how I feel about the fact that I know all the lyrics to this already. ↩
4. Good for singing/sobbing along to in the shower. ↩
5. I’ve got a few songs in various playlists that I just skip immediately right now, but can’t bring myself to remove. This is one. “Haven’t heard your voice for a while” ↩
6. Pretty sure I stole this off my friends’ wedding playlist. It’s a vibe. ↩
7. “That’s what I call foresight, that’s what I call manifesting” is fun to sing along with. ↩
8. I’ve finally given in and made an entire separate playlist for this vibe of track. Y’know, the kind of thing that you’d hear as background music during a car chase scene set in 1980s LA? ↩
9. Yes, yes, I know, I am extremely late to the brat summer ↩
10. A little bit too on-the-nose at the moment, but when I’m in the mood for it, a good one. ↩
11. New Coldplay? In 2024? Weird in several ways. ↩

My dad died this month.

When I joined choir, when I got a music scholarship and started the music major, we all joked that nobody knew where the signing talent came from. Wasn’t on mom’s side, wasn’t on dad’s. It’s still a mystery.

It wasn’t until now that I realized, there’s no question of where I got my love of music. Growing up, my dad always had music going. A big hi-fi system in his living room, a rack of CDs beside it; binders upon binders of CDs in the backseat of his car, and my sister and I often had the opportunity to play DJ. He gave me my first MP3 player, and later my first iPod. When ripping CDs was all the rage, he gave me a hard drive with hundreds of gigabytes of music on it — he and his friends had, apparently, been ripping every CD they could get their hands on for months, and that was the fruit of their labors. I got to experience the infinite selection of streaming music a decade before anyone else did.

He wasn’t a perfect man by any stretch of the imagination, but he was my dad, and he loved me.

So here’s to you, dad. I love you, and wherever you are, I hope you’ve got a good sound system.

Your Hand In Mine – Explosions in the Sky on Friday Night Lights [Original Movie Soundtrack]⁹

1. Went to this concert with my sister. This was the one we both cried through—Peck introduced it as the feeling of homesickness, and not being able to go back. Yeah. Yeah. ↩
2. music blasting with the top off the jeep over in central Oregon ↩
3. I’m putting together a playlist for the celebration of life, and both this and the original version are on there. I think he would’ve liked this cover. ↩
4. I considered putting How to Save a Life on this playlist but couldn’t do it. Time Well Wasted doesn’t have the same poignancy; “and I would have stayed up with you all night, had I known how to save a life” still hurts too much.
   That whole album is… the feeling of walking down the hall into his office in the house he lived in when I was in elementary school. ↩
5. I don’t actually know if dad listened to this album at all. I hope he did. It was on my list of things to tell him about next time I talked to him; it seemed like it’d be right up his alley. ↩
6. This song was already gonna make me sad, so what the hell, why not have the Sleeping At Last version, his covers always turn of the depression quotient. ↩
7. This was the first country song I could start listening to again. It’s the feeling of fond remembrance, not just sad. ↩
8. This is just some good “put your headphones in, crank up the volume, and cry” music. ↩
9. I had tickets to see Explosions in the Sky when they were in Portland, and went to the concert fully expecting to cry when they played Your Hand in Mine. Turns out they did an extended version! More crying than planned.
   I love this band, and very clearly remember dad playing this at night sometimes. I was insomniac as hell as a kid, and this was one of the things that could help me get to sleep. ↩

Lotta country in this one, I think that may just be what August sounds like to me.

1. Has Yoste released anything that didn’t immediately go into my playlist? I should check, I suppose I do have all the data for that… ↩
2. This song inspired a feature request for the Music app: “use ML to detect sirens in tracks, and auto-skip those tracks when I’m in the Driving focus.” ↩
3. Happy Pride, everyone! This song is: a bop. ↩
4. “Are you a man? ‘Cause I’m a bitch.” is a hell of an opening line, and it just goes from there. Truly excellent. ↩

If it’s Pride where you are, happy Pride! There’s a lot of Orville Peck in here, which I’ll pretend was a deliberate choice to celebrate.

In Your Eyes – The Weeknd on After Hours (Deluxe)

1. I really enjoyed the music video of this one, too. ↩
2. To really emphasize what the experience of these playlists is like, play this immediately after Pig Feet. ↩
3. Delighted by how well this captures the feeling of what I liked about Charles Fauna originally without being derivative of his earlier work. ↩
4. I know only a little bit about the Kendrick/Drake beef, but it sure does make for some good music. From one side. ↩
5. This is why In Your Eyes by The Weeknd showed up later – the scansion works. ↩
6. New Coldplay? In 2024??? It’s more likely than you think. ↩

Honestly surprised this playlist is as long as it is; this month has felt extremely busy.

1. This is one that feels like it’s gonna be in my list for months on end, just based on how I’m slowly picking up bits of it that I can sing along to. ↩
2. I can’t quite figure out what this one reminds me of, feels like it’s on the tip of my tongue… ↩
3. The same guy who gave me “like the softest hammer” (How You’ll Be Remembered) comes in with “love is like a tiger on a landmine — you’re scared but want to save it at the same time.” Excellent. ↩
4. I’m told this is full of sick burns, or whatever. I don’t actually keep up with the music industry news enough to follow it, I just heard it enough from people who do that it wound up in here. ↩
5. The driving synth line in here is really excellent. ↩
6. The music video for this is also excellent. ↩

Feels like a shorter one than usual—I had a bit less time for listening to music this month. Which feels slightly ominous.

1. Really love the strings here, wonderfully rhythmic. ↩
2. collab of the century??? ↩
3. Feels very… ‘80s female lead to me. I dig it. ↩
4. Not a repeat! One is the “explicit” version and one isn’t… but they’re actually very different iterations of the same song. ↩
5. Feels very “Fred again..” ↩
6. I have done no research to find the answer to this question, because it’s more fun that way, but I keep wondering: did Beyoncé already have the classical-opera-style training for this, or did she learn it just for this song? Either way, daaaaang. ↩
7. This is the one song I added whilst I was away from my computer and listening to less music. ↩
8. A+ song to sing along to in the shower, can recomend. ↩

I’m on vacation here at the beginning of the month, and while my process for writing up the playlist remains the same, doing it while looking out over a tropical beach sure does make it nicer.

1. This has so thoroughly and immediately jumped up into my favorite songs ever list that I’m contemplating writing an entire post about it. ↩
2. For the right audience, this track is absolutely brutal. ↩
3. Watching a live performance video of this brought me back to undergrad and having a voice professor try to convince me of the importance of breath control; should’ve just shown me this video, honestly. ↩
4. I keep reading “stayinit” as code. stayinit ↩
5. A cover that I think I prefer to the original; sorry, a bit blasphemous, I know. ↩
6. Wishing this had the full lyrics available, because there’s at least one line in here that I want to know if I’m hearing right. ↩
7. Once again, blasphemously saying: I prefer this cover to the original. ↩

Did everybody have a good extra-strength February?

1. I still enjoy having a few of these Noon Pacific things floating around my library, just a fun little reminder of when that was still a thing. ↩
2. An absolute banger from Mahmood here ↩
3. “financial advice, but make it electronic music” ↩
4. It took me a bit too long to notice that this was Juice WRLD, at which point I listened to the ending lyrics and thought “rude” ↩
5. Honestly I think I just threw this one in because of the whole Byzantine history kick I went on not too long ago. ↩

I actually did fairly well at remembering to write the new year when writing out dates, with the sole exception of writing “2021” on something. Eh, close enough.

1. Sorry Usher, I’m just not as excited about your Super Bowl halftime show as I was about Rihanna’s. ↩
2. I’ve been told James Blunt has music that isn’t depressing as hell, but I have yet to hear any evidence of it. ↩
3. Usually I don’t put pure-instrumental stuff in this playlist, but I just enjoyed the title enough to give it a pass. ↩
4. Found because of the music video, which sure did give me some emotions, and then I found I quite like the song, too. ↩

Happy new year!

3. “I’ll make the excuse that maybe I was abused/ Or maybe then I’d have to actually believe it this time” ↩

A single Christmas song sneaking in, added after Thanksgiving, thank you. Hold the line.

Say Don’t Go (Taylor’s Version) [From The Vault] – Taylor Swift on 1989 (Taylor’s Version)

1. Some spooky vibes spilling over from last month, but I dig it. Instrumentation kinda makes me think of the castle levels in Crash Bandicoot. ↩
2. “We’ll stay for good” is the point where I always find myself singing along. Maybe earlier, sure, but that’s the bit that I just can’t help myself on. ↩
3. Apparently I exclusively listen to James Blunt songs that sound kinda cheerful but have very sad lyrics. ↩
4. A whole album! I’m so happy about Yoste. Coincidentally, I did my Apple Music Wrapped thing and am wondering if it would tell me if I’m in the top 10 of his listeners on Apple Music, or if it caps out at top 100. ↩
5. The fact that he just wrote this song in both English and Spanish is wild. I do enjoy where the lyrics differ a little, though. Hero vs. Héroe has some good “that doesn’t mean quite the same thing!” moments. ↩
6. Extremely fun to sing along to. Do the accent! ↩
7. “Now I’m driving home/ And the sad part’s coming” is a weirdly familiar feeling — the comedown after spending time with people. ↩
8. This sound track was way better than it had any right to be. ↩

It’s been a month this month, but I am delighted to report that it is time for fall weather. Don’t mind me while I explode into a cloud of apple cider and autumnal vibes.

1. I love the chain of sampling necessary for this track to show up for me – it’s here because of the Imogen Heap, but boy is she ever at a remove. ↩
2. “They say pressure makes diamonds, how the hell am I still coal” is a good line ↩
3. This live album is excellent, I’m gonna have to keep an eye out for their next tour. ↩
4. Kinda convinced I’ve found a fred again.. side project here. ↩
5. I’m a big fan of this track, A+ lyrics once you tune in, and also just good for listening to. ↩
6. This is just a childhood jam for me ↩
7. Elderbrook feels rather autumnal to me. I don’t know if that makes sense, but it’s a thing. ↩
8. “Kill your demons, kill ‘em dead…” very sing-along-able ↩
9. Feels fairly Daft Punk, at least lyrically. ↩
10. I enjoy that every Thirty Seconds to Mars album has a significantly different feel than the previous. ↩
11. Extremely fall vibes ↩
12. In the playlist because my roommate’s Spotify put up a cover and it was not as satisfying to sing along to as the source material. ↩

It’s been a good summer, but as of this morning fall has hit, and with a vengeance; a beautiful rainy day, really livened up my Pacific Northwesterner spirits.

1. Have you seen Barbie yet? Go see Barbie. ↩
2. “Some kids move because their parents take new jobs/Some kids move ‘cause of napalm” ↩
3. My sister sent me this one! I don’t have anything coherent to say about it, but it brings me joy when she finds a song that I like. ↩
4. This whole album is strange and wonderful and I love it. ↩
5. It’s the melody line from Neil Diamond’s Shilo, which makes this just sorta weird to listen to. ↩
6. I’m delighted by this, because for all that I’ve continued to enjoy Hayden Calnin, this is the first thing that feels like it’s catching me as much as Fuck Collingwood did. ↩
7. I don’t know what the vibe in this track is, but I’m here for it. ↩
8. A nice little jazzy bit at the end; I’ve really been enjoying Elliot Moss lately. ↩
9. Imogen Heap is so very sampleable. ↩
