I rediscovered (aka reset) my Spotify password the other day and found this playlist which I loved so much that I forgot it existed. It’s nothing but boppy pop music. Shuffle for optimal fun. While I am not a music…
Listening to: DMB LIVE TRAX
DMB’s new stuff is good (although I do miss the violin) but there is something about the early playlists that bring me back to warm, hopeful summers. This is the YouTube playlist of the entire album, recorded at a concert…
What I’m Listening To: I need You by Jon Batiste
YouTube tries desperately to “get me” but I make it difficult. My YouTube haunts are basically: Jenna Marbles and Moriah Elizabeth videos, lofi playlists, and yoga. As a result it suggests moody music, cute animal videos, and basically anybody who…
What I’m Listening to: Dominick the Donkey
This was on Twitter the other day: And I was a little bit surprised, but not much, because WM says he never heard of the song (and hated it on first listen). As a highly-diluted Italianish-American, I’m happy to fix…
What I’m Listening To: Any Pentatonix Christmas Song
Seriously. They’re all good. Every song is good. This Youtube playlist is 75 songs long. If you don’t want to listen to four hours of Pentatonix (why wouldn’t you, what’s wrong with you?) I heartily recommend their version of “When…
What I’m Listening To: A Legendary Christmas
This gem was released in 2018 and it’s one of my favorites. I bet it sounds amazing on vinyl, but I just have Alexa play it. My favorite songs are “Bring me Love” and “What Christmas Means to Me.” Oh,…
What I’m listening to: Holly Dolly Christmas
It’s a fun Christmas Album by country and vaccine queen Dolly Parton! Here’s the entire album! The whole album is fantastic. My favorites are “Cuddle Up, Cozy Down Christmas” which is a duet with Michael Buble, and “Christmas on the…
What I’m Watching: The Go-Gos
This was from September and they are KILLING IT. I love Jane’s garden and I want to be that cool when I grow up.
What I’m Listening To: A Pirate Looks at Forty
In 2008, Jack Johnson, Dave Matthews, and Tim Reynolds performed Jimmy Buffett’s legendary song. If you know me and my musical tastes, this is perfect.
What I’m listening to: Chillhop
This is a genre I had never heard of before the cursed year of 2020 when even the “Add Water” light on the coffeemaker is enough to kick me down an anxiety hole. Chillhop has been around for a few…
What I’m listening to: Tapestry
As the days become shorter I find myself listening to music that can be described as the soundtrack of my childhood. It’s warm and comforting. This week I listened to Carole King’s Tapestry album. I’ve heard many of the songs…
This beat cha-ching like money
It should come as no surprise to ANYBODY who has known me for even the slightest bit that I love me some boy bands. Always have, always will. If you haven’t heard of BTS before, they are a K-Pop band…
