Help with summer music list (1 Viewer)

Tick

I make a summer music list every year, the family digs it.  The songs get associated with the summer, and when we hear them, it takes us to that summer's memories.

From past history, I've learned that the ideal length is around 4 hours - enough repetition over the summer that the songs stick, but not so few songs that we get sick of them. 

Some parameters:

  • Not filthy - this is for the family (in content or language - innuendo is fine, but there's some arbitrary line I've set in my mind)
  • Unlikely to include country - maybe one per year
  • Unlikely to include rap - pop strays into this at times, which is fine
  • Not too hard - no Torche or Royal Blood
  • Music from the past decade, mostly focusing on the past 2 years
I've pretty much filled out this year's list, but a couple are borderline and could be swapped out for something that grabs me more, or I could start next year's list, and I'm at 3:45 so there's a little room.  Here's what I have so far:

Spotify list (a couple aren't in Spotify, I left the original Phoebe Ryan song in there but the remix is way better, I included the explicit version of an AWOLNATION song but have a clean version on my list) - looks like this is broken for now, I'll see if I can get it fixed up.

Spotify bailed me out - it made a radio station based on my playlist that is just what I was looking for.
