“Mentally I’m shaking my ass rn.” is killing me, but I LOVE this! can we hear more about when you listen to certain songs (ie walking around the city)?
Thank you!! I typically listen to music when I’m commuting, so walking/taking the subway, or when I’m doing work or hanging out at home. Some songs become tied to certain contexts because they fit the situation better and I end up listening to them more within those contexts - so “Roadside Flowers” became a staple for my commute, but also “She’s an Easy Rider” became a song that I always put on when I stretch in the morning/before bed! I can try and include more commentary on the functionality of certain songs in future newsletters. Thanks for the Q :)
love it!!! great playlist (added a few to my monthly playlist) and rly enjoyed ur writing. i like hearing about why u like certain songs, maybe incorporating more of ur personal history or the song history into it could be cool bc i like hearing ur thoughts <3
I just came into my apartment singing bruce springsteen and joseph started talking about how the replacements are like an alt bruce. You aren't the only one convinced. His example was "left of the dial"
Vida Dos Cachorros reminds me of this Pink Floyd song from their Album Meddle, Seamus. (https://open.spotify.com/track/05lNdqc6FhcsxCfS8lJzyE?si=6c56fc2980f24033)
Sick playlist Melissa!

This is FANTASTIC news and “left of the dial” is a prime example. The real question now is what Springsteen song you were singing...
“Tenth avenue freeze-out”
