I think as long as the title or lyrics mention an animal you're good. Can also be about an animal like KPs song.

Sorry to interrupt this great thread - I have a Spotify question. I found a playlist I love - its about 600 songs, but there are many I don't like. How can I keep the playlist but delete the songs I don't want?

I want to take a Johnny Cash song, but it's not one that's worthy of being in the top four. So could you guys please choose some Cash this afternoon? :lol:

Dedicating this one to Man of Constant Sorrow, who liked it better than anyone else I know.

Oh man, unless you want some of George Martin's compositions from Yellow Submarine, we should probably have this on Turn Down The Lights instead.

I looked at the category really broadly and thought it was broad, hence, "Paper Tiger." Crows 1 is quite literally about crows and death and them fashioning tools for burial, so I think I'm safe with that one.

You can’t edit the playlist because it doesn’t belong to you. You can either

1) Make a new playlist and copy over only the songs you want

or

2) Make a new playlist copy every song over and then remove songs as you come across ones you don’t like

Note when copying songs over on desktop it’s like windows where you can highlight all the songs at once and drag them over. You don’t need to add 1 song as a time.

Oh, thanks for that. Couldn't you import all the songs to your own playlist, then remove the offenders? Yeah, create a playlist. Name it. Leave it blank for a moment. Go to playlist you want to copy. Select the first song. Go to the end of the playlist and select the last one by hitting shift and clicking the mouse. Drag and drop to left side of screen where you've set up blank playlist. Then remove offending songs. Roundabout, but should work.

Yep. Animals and Cash. I was going to shoot the moon and do all four categories, but that would get too confusing. Consider the Cash picks bonus picks.

Rd 250: 4 Degrees by ANHONI

I wanna hear the dogs crying for water
I wanna see fish go belly-up in the sea
All those lemurs and all those tiny creatures
I wanna see them burn, it's only four degrees

I warned you it was depressing. Yay climate change.

I think k4 and I got it. There was one by an artist you detested or one by ANOHNI that was depressing.

Ilov80s · Mar 15, 2021

I love the Hudson Mohawke beat on that too. Asked specifically for war drums. Basically saying what’s the point in pretending she’s not part of the problem of climate change and mass consumption so might as well be honest and admit she’s at war with the Earth.

Its not one of the ones for this draft. I'm pretty new to Spotify. I stumbled across a bluegrass playlist online and the description sounded exactly my jam. Turns out there is some good stuff, but a lot of what I would call "pop bluegrass" and mainstream country that I can't tolerate.
