Thank you all so much! It’s been fun going through these. Feel free to keep commenting but I’m gonna mute for now so I can get some rest 🫶 be gentle with yourselves for the holidays!
I'm a huge Kiss fan, Paul Stanley in particular. At the moment, Yungblud's cover of 'I Was Made For Lovin' You' is at the top of my playlist. It gives me chills.
Duvet by Bôa. It was the theme song to an anime called Serial Experiments Lain in the late 90s and now that I've discovered it again I can't stop listening.
I came across it in Arcane edits 😅 turns out she has a lot of older work that's common, including Hide and Seek which was featured in Jason Derulo's "Whatcha Say"
If we exclude anything from Wicked part 1 😅 my favorite song right now is "Half of Forever" by Henrik. I heard it in a coffee shop for the first time the other day and I really love the feel of it.
my favourite non-taylor has got to be you're gonna go far (when i'm optimistic) or growing sideways (when i'm really going through it) by noah kahan 🫶🏻
Waltz No.2 by Dimitri Shostakovich has been on repeat in my study for the last week, specifically the version by the dixie string quartet, lovely to listen too while reading
Discovered (re-discovered?) Raye after seeing her on SNL recently. Her live performance of this song was so different from the recorded one (which I already loved), it made me want to find her other music. So talented!

I have a soft spot for songs that scream about not being alone. Rock n Roll Suicide by David Bowie also fits that bill.

"There is nothing but the moment, don't you waste in on regret."

this song is a "yes."

if that doesn’t help then Last Words by Tayla Parx
Basically everything from Ministry to be honest.
It's like a cup of hot chocolate on cold November night!

All time favorite, Unchained Melody by The Righteous Brothers.
Maybe odd choices for my favorite genre being what it is, lol.

Something that's a little bit chiller... "Some Boys" by Death Cab For Cutie has a way of piercing my mind lately. https://is.gd/YjdEJr
Very powerful ~
it switches between tame metal, industrial rock, and punk on the first half. then, to an alt-country song right afterward! 🤯🤠
