Day 16 - A song you recently added to a playlist

I've been told my playlist setup is quite odd. When I like a band, I take all their albums, singles, live plays, and dump them in a playlist named Bandname. That way I have everything they've done in one place, and I can binge-listen! None of my playlists contain stuff from multiple different bands - when I want to listen to a band I want to listen to only that band.

Does anyone else do this?

Anyway, Spotify has a "liked songs" list. I don't activaly listen to the list, but I do press the like-button on songs I find particularly great. A little badge of honor for my favorites. Makes them easy to find! Here's the latest song that earned a medal;

Tegan and Sara - Please Help Me

I have done that before when you just discover a new artist and get obsessed.
 
What do you do after you've gotten to know them? Split the playlist up? Order by... bpm? Feeling? I'm genuinely curious!
I cherry pick my faves and put them in a playlist with other songs that kind of fit with them.

I have so many playlists... aaaaagh. My favorite one is titled, "what is this even?"

I will listen to one song on a continuous loop as well... Some may call that crazy.

Not crazy at all! Here's a tip in case anyone doesn't know; if you want to loop a youtube video, just replace the word "youtube" in the URL with "listenonrepeat"!

And you have a potpurri of songs then! I wonder what's in the deepest darkest reaches of those things. Sometimes it's fun to go spelunking.

I do this for my favorite singers and bands besides my more traditional playlists. It's harder to do one for a newer artist cos I need that grouping of four covers for the playlist photo lol. I whittle it down sometimes to take out skips but otherwise I just put it on shuffle and I'm good to go.
 
Day 14: A song by an artist who has grown on you over time.

In college, there was a great bar/music venue in town that was usually good for a night of beers and good music. I always got disappointed when I’d get there and the sign out front said “Tonight: Dave Matthews Band”.

They’ve grown on me, but only in small doses.

I was obsessed with this song, now more so with the video. Warning, a tad graphic.

A fantastic addition to my ‘80s cover playlist.

Ice Nine Kills x Reel Big Fish : Walking on sunshine

Why did I think the original was from the early 90s 😣 I'm usually pretty good at hearing the decade 😭

That song was overplayed when it came out but what an earworm and those lyrics:

You've got your ball
You've got your chain
Tied to me tight, tie me up again
Who's got their claws
In you my friend
Into your heart I'll beat again
