| And just like that, it's time for a new playlist! |
How is it August already??? Crazy how the summer snuck up on us...kinda like the Delta Variant except there's no vaccine for summer humidity. Anyway, I've got another playlist ready to go! It seems like the theme of this month's songs is collaboration! We've got remixes and multiple artists galore! So let's dig in. To listen on Spotify, click HERE.
1. Solar Power (Lorde) - New Zealander gets us started with this slow simmering new hit.
2. Can You Handle My Love? (Walk the Moon) - I never get tired of this energetic Indie band! If the only song of theirs that you know is "Shut Up and Dance", I highly encourage you to check out their other music!
3. Love If You Need It /Mousse T's Classic Shizzle/ (Horse Meat Disco feat. Fi McCluskey) - Jeff turned me on to this. Gotta say, I don't dig their band name, but if Mousse T is on board - sign me up!
4. You Should Be Dancing (Dee Gees/Foo Fighters) - This has been the Song of the Summer 2021, and deservedly so! Foo Fighters doing the Bee Gees!!!
5. Feel the Way I Want (Caroline Rose) - We had her on our March 2018 playlist, and now she's back with some 80s-styled funk!
6. Sanctuary (Slim Jeff, Annabelle McGinnis, and CAPYAC) - This is giving me Kaytranada vibes and I'm not mad about it!
7. Same Page, Different Book (Prince) - Every now and again, I seem to be at odds with the critics. Everyone is raving about "Welcome2America", the 2010 Prince album that has surfaced posthumously. I didn't love it. But this song was okay. Shelby J's slammin' rap is the best part.
8. On Top (Dan Croll) - British singer-songwriter serves up some Supertramp-influenced rock.
9. Tiger (Sparkle Moore) - 1950s rockabilly singer is getting some long overdue attention on the music blogs, and I'm so thankful to have finally found her!
10. Made to Love (Imelda May with Ron Wood, Gina Martin, and Dr. Shola Mos-Shogbamimu) - Okay, I almost got carpal tunnel from typing in all the people who sang on this, but in the end - it's a great song!
11. Never Take It (Twenty One Pilots) - Twenty One Pilots definitely don't need a shout out from me, but I liked the message on this tune: beware of the rampant misinformation that is out there!
12. Call On Me (Raye) - I think we have an emerging pop princess on our hands! Ava Max and Kim Petras better watch their backs.
13. Move Into Me /Roosevelt Remix/ (Bad Sounds feat. Broods) - I pretty much love anything Roosevelt does, including this remix.
14. My Baby Just Cares for Me (Ledisi and Metropole Orkest) - Great take on a great Nina Simone tune. She did sing other stuff besides "Feelin' Good", y'know!!!
15. All the Little Things (Winston Surfshirt feat. Ramirez) - Easy-going summer beats perfect for relaxing at the beach...in a (wait for it)...surfshirt!
16. Missing Piece (Vance Joy) - The latest epic anthem from Australian artist.
17. Faster (Samantha Fish) - Samantha is serving a Shania Twain rock vibe on this that is totally working for me!
18. I Want Love /Two Colors Remix/ (Jessie J and Billy Porter) - Eric turned me on to this! Total diva runway-struttin' disco!
So that's August! Everyone stay safe, wear a mask, and if you haven't gotten vaccinated yet...DO IT!!!
