I spend an unhealthy amount of time making playlists. I won’t even burn them onto CDs or listen to them in their entirety after I’ve finished them, but my playlists are serious business. Perhaps I just get a kick out of absurd themes.
For the last few months, I’ve been compiling tracks for my “songs that make me feel like a recovering drug addict” playlist. Unfortunately, iTunes’ Genius feature does not exactly aid me in this endeavor, so I tend to add to the list once I come across music that would work during casual listening. It got a little complicated when I made the decision to include songs that have lyrics that do not necessarily refer to addiction or drugs.
Anyway, here’s what I have so far:
“Whom Did You Expect” – Alice in Wonderland OST
“Feel Good Hit Of The Summer” – Queens of the Stone Age
“Bring Me Back A Dog” – IAMX
“Your Sweet Love (Featuring Alison Shaw)” – Trash Palace
“Haemoglobin” – Placebo
“Eye” – Smashing Pumpkins
“6 Underground” – Sneaker Pimps
“Lunch Hour Pops” – Broadcast
“Black Yogurt (With Mike Watt)” – Black Moth Super Rainbow
“Nylon Smile” – Portishead
“Naked But Safe” – IAMX
“Reach For Your Lives” – Bogdan Raczynski
“What Have My Chickens Done Now?” – The Residents
“Spiracle” – Black Moth Super Rainbow
“Mutilated Lips” – Ween
“Drink You Pretty” – Placebo
“Helsabot” – Ten In The Swear Jar
“Parade” – Paprika OST
“Requiem For A Jerk (Requiem Pour Un Con)” – Faultline, Brian Molko & Françoise Hardy
“The Happy Sea” – Colleen
“High Speed Zombie Chase” – Rotator
“Ominous Cloud” – Broadcast
“Rain” – Tones on Tail
“Coattails of a Dead Man” – Tom Waits & Primus
“America’s Boy” – Broadcast
“Neon Rocks” – Calvin Harris
“Push Th’ Little Daisies” – Ween
It’ll be interesting to see how many songs I hate after I’m satisfied with editing it ;)
