Insinuates?
… incorporates?
Inserts?
Yeah, that’s better.
Cha cha cha
Just listen to it and you’ll know why I love it enough to have it on my playlist. You don’t even need to speak Finnish to enjoy it.
I never actually counted but thanks to your question I know now. Currently I am enjoying music on 45 playlists and there is zero songs overlapping, with a small exception of “temporary” playlist — where songs are awaiting being sorted and this one is generally a “beautiful mess”.
There might be like 5 songs that occupy different playlists but they are in different versions, covers, unplugged/concert versions or redefining remixes.
I think it’s Lay it on me by Vance Joy. It has a part about him being sad, then there is love, and then an instrumental chorus to which I dance to (given a chance). I guess I find it pretty uplifting.
It was fascinating reading through your playlists, colored by your description of them.
One of the songs that is used in many(not all) of my playlists is Mutemath - You Are Mine.
The song has vibes, can be played as background noise, but also as a listening song. It is melancholic, but not so sad that it can’t be played on a sunny day(although it is more suited for rainy days and autumn weather for sure)
I’m limited to one?
That’s pretty much “Fade to Black”, by Metallica.
The only playlists it doesn’t end up on are genre limited lists, and it there’s a cover in the genre, that isn’t even certain. There’s a couple of incredible bluegrass covers of it that are on my bluegrass playlists lol.
But, Metallica is more or less my favorite band. I could argue with myself about that and make good points against it being true, but it amounts to it being true anyway.
It’s off of a great album. It’s musically fulfilling, in that it covers a lot of ground without being chaotic. The subject matter is a big one, and it’s one I’ve faced in my life many a time. It has emotional resonance because of that, and because the song has helped me make it through many of those times. It’s kind of a tautology there.
It’s one of James Hetfield’s best vocals (imo).
The guitars are superb, the drums at the peak of Lars Ulrich’s abilities. The bass is present and well mixed (which is not a guarantee with Metallica lol).
There are other songs that find their way into damn near any playlist I make, but none of them can match FtB.
I am enjoying all of your experiences. Every one of you has broadened my musical mind.
I haven’t quite put this into my playlist yet…

Edit: Why? Because of kitties and Bubbles of course. Ricky and Julian did pretty damn awesome as backup too.
