    Fast Car is one of those songs that always makes me cry.

    I've been listening to Bob Marley & the Wailers:

    Get up, stand up: stand up for your right

    Get up, stand up: don't give up the fight

    I usually listen to punk and rock, but today I'm having a boiler replaced, and the gas engineer introduced me to Gold Radio, a UK based station. They've been playing classics from the 50s to the 80s, so I've heard loads of old songs that I haven't heard for years.

    Right now one of my favourites is playing though, Mister Blue Sky by ELO. Possibly one of the best songs of all time :D

    I created a playlist that just makes me happy, it's a colourful mix of old rock (for example: Ram Jam - Black Betty), nerdy stuff (like Bo Burnham, Tom Cardy, Flight of the Conchords), lefty bobs (ex.: ZSK - Antifascista, Ska-P - Colores) and old cartoon themes (Arabian Nights, Ducktales, TNMT) with lots of quality german stuff (Seeed, Wir sind Helden, Knorkator), many epic rap battles of history and some really gangster british drill rap with a twist (like Pete & Bas).

    It's just... I don't know, the songs are mostly upbeat, funny and energetic. I used to be mostly a metal guy, but with age came the conclusion that whatever makes me happy and gives me some energy to get through the slog of the day is just... good.

    Killswitch Engage, mainly their 2002 and 2006 albums "Alive or Just Breathing" and "As Daylight Days", respectively.

    Aside from that, some of Timecop1983's albums, mainly "Night Drive" (2018), "Faded Touch" (2021), and "Searching for Tomorrow" (2023).

    Been on a kick to find some soul vibey female singers. A weirdly specific genre, but it's got some good vibes.

    Example Artists: Couch, Rijah

    They're really small, from what I gather, so that's always cool.

    Pino Daniele - Bella ‘mbriana

    If you like sophistipop and fusion, you’ll love this album. Best of Italian sophistipop imo.

    I've recently been a little addicted to the Eve6 album Eve6. Specifically Leech, Superhero Girl, and Tongue Tied. Been the CD I've been occasionally listening to my rip of.

    That, and Backyard Babies' Making Enemies Is Good.

    Tracy Chapman is an amazing live experience. Seen her two times and I hope it can be three times!

    my playlist is usually random with a little of everything in it. But when I am feeling down about world events, hardcore punk is my everything

    My favorite band Red Vox just put out a new album called Retcon:

    I especially like the song "Brother," it's a sad song so fair warning:

    Makaya McCraven's "Techno Logic" "The People’s Mixtape" "Hidden Out" and "PopUp Shop" (4 EPs he released on the same day that are basically one inconveniently packaged double album), Sholto's "Letting go of Forever," and "Car Alarm" by Pat's Soundhouse when I don't

    I'm not sure if it's just by coincidence, however recently I've been getting various Lesbian singers recommended to me by YouTube. And they've been pretty fire.
    Chappell Roan, Girl in Red, Frances Forever (love the Space Girl song), etc.

    Usually some punk mixed in the playlists, from Crass to Mudrats (been fond of their song "I Hate Rich Cunts", very catchy). Along this vibe there's I guess closer to a punky UK Garage fusion with Cuppa Tea by EV.

    Ye Vagabonds are on a US tour right now, and I'm so excited to see them I've been listening to them nonstop. A lovely Irish folk music duo of two brothers.

    My favorite recently:

    Primo theater nerd progessive rock sprinkled with metal. My taste heavily leans towards exceptional instrumentation and harsh vocals, but this band's vocalist blew me away. It is immediately obvious that he was the lead in one to several of his high school's musicals and likely went on to study and train in a conservatory or university program. His delivery is nuanced and theatrical without going overboard.

    The instrumentation is stellar with an arrangement that accentuates and complements the vocals without fighting for space. Impressively, the combined runtime beats out Between the Buried and Me's Parallax 1&2 by 6 minutes. Like Parallax, the Breacher saga has enough variety in composition that the 2+ hours isn't a slog but an enjoyable journey that doesn't overstay it's welcome.

    FFO: Native Construct, Coheed and Cambria, Ludo's Broken Bride EP, BTBAM-like zaniness

    Crunching like mad for an exam currently. So justice and femtanyl to hype myself up while studying. (For me they work well since they don't have lyrics/they aren't easily comprehensible)

    And before going to sleep. Either caravan palace or Jamie Berry to calm back down. + a couple of songs from Mina Celentano.
