The man refuses to play Katy Perry, A-ha, Midnight Oil, Tears For Fears. This is why I married him. He makes me laugh. Plus he buys me stuff.
Those people make up like half of my liked songs playlist :(
Oh dear. I'm sorry but we are more of a rock, punk rock family.
I have rock!
I have punk!
I love the percentage of your songs that were released prior to your birth. You've got some good music influencers in your world, Baku.
2010s actually makes up the bulk of my liked songs
But it doesn't make up the bulk of what I listen to, because that title goes to ABBA, who I don't go 3 days without listening too...
Which is how this happened
2010's makes perfect sense. It's actually a weak decade for me. Once I had mp3s and later streaming, I stopped listening to the radio. That in-turn led to a huge reduction to the new music I was introduced to.
Listen to the album Deleted scenes from the Cutting Room Floor by Caro Emerald. From your tastes, I have a feeling you'll like it. She's basically unknown in Australia, so this one isn't something you'll have likely come across.
That's fair. I struggle with discovering newer stuff too because I rarely listen to the radio, and when I do it's usually SmoothFM. For the last few years though, I have been trying to listen to the Hottest 100 each year
Never heard of Caro Emerald, but I'll give it a go. Thanks for the recco
You do. So proud. Keep up your diverse catalogue.
Diversity FTW
Everybody wants to rule the world.
