We all end in the ocean
we all start in the streams
We're all carried along
by the river of dreams

(that song isn't in the playlist, though)

I think it would probably help the electorate if I shared the video for "Mr. Motivator" here. YOU CAN DO IT WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

The mourning doves in the Joanna Newsome song trigger me. Those effers used to keep me from sleep.


What’s the thread through those songs, Kincaid?

Everyone on my block has a bloody nose after listening to Zeus's playlist.

After listening to Kincaid's I gave them all a kleenex.

Speaking of breaking through brick walls, I’m taking my kid to see this next week.

I know it’s mostly used in paper towel and puppy chow commercials now, but what an awesome wall of noise. I can’t wait.

It's not so much a logical theme as I tried to make a playlist I thought flowed well together. Starting off with a fun catchy song, then drifting into something chill and mellow and carrying through a few instrumentals I get strong emotional reactions from, and then bookending it with another vocal song I thought reflected the general vibe of the playlist and built up to a climactic conclusion. I tried to structure it with the storytelling concept of rising and falling action in mind where the overall flow builds up to a couple of energetic peaks.

Basically the sort of playlist I imagined might be playing as I was carried along by the river of dreams.

Apologies about the birdcall trigger.
