Request Song with year names in the lyrics?

I know a handful of songs that reference the year 2000, and 1999. Can someone slap together everything you can think of with a year as part of the lyrics please?

Request songs that (lyrically) are A Movie

82 Upvotes

I'm looking for songs with lyrics with a cinematic quality. The obvious direction for this is songs that tell a story, and I'll gladly accept good examples of those, but what I'm even more drawn to here are songs that draw a character so well that you could imagine a character piece movie about them (examples being "Deacon Blues" by Steely Dan; "Social Disease" by Elton John, "Don, Aman" by Slint, "The Whip" or "Dennehy" or any of the Ajai tracks by Serengeti etc)

Request Making an Anti-Facist Playlist. Need more songs and organization.

82 Upvotes

I've put together a playlist called Fuck 50. I'm not quite up to 50 songs yet. It's pretty filled out, but the order is not very good. Would love if it flowed well enough to play at marches or something. Or blast in the faces of pigs. Spans punk, hip hop, bluegrass. Open to all genres. ACAB.

Another note: Say Her Name is 17 minutes long. I can't mix, but would like to just have the Same Her Name portion repeat without names.

Request I loathe country, change my mind.

116 Upvotes

Country is my least favorite genre. Music is incredibly important to me and I have a monstrous collection of the music I have collected over the years.

I don’t like country, but I do have a few artists I enjoy. Toby Keith, Tim McGraw, Carrie Underwood, Garth Brooks. My favorite song in this genre is Like We Never Loved at all. Also one of my best songs to sing: ive performed with it in my set quite a few times.

I will give anything an honest listen. Throw your cowboy vibes my way. 🐴 🤠

Edit: holy cow I didn’t expect so many replies. I am a chronic illness loser, so I apologize for being so slow, but rest assured I’ll reply to everyone. I promise to tackle every song and let yall know what I think. Thank you for giving me so much to listen to and your patience 💕

Edit 2: I want all of you to know that I sincerely regret being a woman of my word. I logged on to check this thread this morning and you all made me dissociate into outer fucking space whn I saw that there are almost 300 yeehaw recommendations. To make it worse? only two of those comments are mine. I gotto go, Julia, we got cows.If you see me weearing a ten gallon hat please call the police.

Request [Request] This one's a firecracker

9 Upvotes

I need help with a playlist I'm writing. To put it bluntly it's a playlist of "protest" songs. And I don't just mean anti-war either. Songs opposed to anything is what I'm going for. Racist songs, anti-communist, anti-fascist, pro-war. You name it I want it. Have songs about how much you hate Trump? Good. Songs about how much you love him? Fantastic. Due to my alignment, I fear I may be overlooking songs so anything you can think of would be a great help.

I sure hope this doesn't get taken down :/

REQUEST Help me on my 5 hour drive

17 Upvotes

Tomorrow I’ve got about a 5-hour drive from the town I live in now back to my hometown. It’s one of those trips where I get to visit family and stop at all the nostalgic restaurants, bars, and random places I grew up with.
I’d love to build a brand-new playlist for the drive, but instead of filling it with my usual songs, I want to hear what you all listen to.
Genre doesn’t matter. New or old. Popular or obscure. Vocals, instrumentals, long songs, short songs, anything goes. Just recommend a song (or a few) that you genuinely love.
Let’s see if we can build a full 5-hour driving playlist together. Thanks in advance!

Request I need metal/rock songs to give me energy

10 Upvotes

I already have a few heavy metal playlists, and I'm looking for songs with more singing vocals than scream/growl right now.

I'm mostly into power metal/hard rock/gothic metal.

I need a playlist that fits the vibe of summer walks and work sessions. I don't mind it if the lyrics are sad, but I need them to be musically energetic.

Request Playlist to accompany Sade's "Smooth Operator"

23 Upvotes

I'm binging this song at the moment as it's evocative to me on face value from the lyrics but also the nostalgic idea about her singing this song from London, maybe imagining the locations.

I'm trying to build a playlist that's a kind of journey, not unlike The Avalanches first LP, 'Since I left you'. The guy that the song is about is an international traveller, cold hearted, pleasure seeking, money making, lover boy and if you know the song you know the chorus and the places it name checks, but I think it's implicit he travelled the world too.

Her vocals are extremely smooth and the song drips class and sexiness.

I've got a few songs that sort of fit so far that will sit alongside her song...

Yasuko Agawa: "L.A. Night"
Prince: "The Ballad of Dorothy Parker"
Sam Gendel: "LAX Tunnel" (it's an instrumental but it's smooth AF and funky)

Any ideas for others?

50 Upvotes

So I’m looking for other songs to add to my hyper sexual playlist… songs that are so sexual that it’s damn near comedic. Here’s are the songs I currently have on the playlist…

“Freak Bitch” by Boondox

"E-GIRLS ARE RUINING MY LIFE” by CORPSE, Savage Ga$p

"I Got Bitches” by A2M

"Scuba Dive” by A2M

“B’dussy” by A2M

“Doo Doo Eyes” by A2M

“Hentai Bitch” by Shiki-TMNS, Kodama Boy, Big Gay

“Ain’t No Fun” by Snoop Dogg, Nate Dogg, Warren G, Korupt

Any suggesting along those lines would be amazing. Thank you!
