I'll get to it, but prefer to jot down my list on the subway walls. And tenement halls.
 
Man, I'm listening to my playlist and starting to think I should really be prioritizing it so that the more accessible songs are played first. Sigur Ros is an amazing band but can be difficult for new listeners to get into depending on what you hear first. I feel like a couple of these more difficult songs are at the tail end of my list currently and I dont want to turn people off from the get go before we get to the really amazing stuff.

Lol. I thought I was finally done obsessing over the list, but then forgot that many are posting our playlists and I had originally intended to put that in more of a "flow" type of playlist for listening. I guess I have another month to fart around with that and obsess more. :nerd:

I do know the opener and closers - those would be my #2 and #1 songs. Only 29 more to go!!

ETA: and I also hear what you are saying about the intro song. My #1 is a rare Dino song that pushes 10mins. Not the first thing people probably should hear from the band. :lol:

Yes, while mine is essentially ranked, I did start it off with a couple stronger songs to try and win people over early.
 
Ah, so some of you also did your playlists in reverse order? When going through I figured out my top 10 early, so my playlist ended up in #1 ---> #31 order.

you can change it as you like until the deadline if you have the Edit button, which I think you do have
 
I just did mine as favorites. Top song at #1 and all that. I tried not to worry about flow too much. A few songs in the final list are going to have a rough time flowing from the last song and/or into the next song no matter WHERE I put them. There are a few places where albums get a little bunched, but most of that worked itself out.

Totaling 155 minutes (or 2 hours, 35 minutes Spotify time) for an unintentional 5 minutes per song. I suppose I can't be surprised that it ended up around there. Not with 1 song under 3 minutes and 2 over 7. With some close calls in both directions.
 
I love all of these Modest Mouse songs. I sequenced them in an attempt at flow but that's pretty subjective, so…

I have favorites all down the line. 2h 28m.

All but one are from albums, compilations and EPs 2004 and earlier. Not a big fan of their last three albums.

I put an introductory song in the lead spot, too. I figured there would be more confidence if my drummer showed his chops early.

I'm planning on daily notes. I reckon Scoresman can note which songs are more accessible and why.
 
I debated re-ordering a bit, but sticking with a straight 1-31 favorite. I don’t have anything really too esoteric in my list, and was diving right in with some samba rock at #31 anyway.
 
I miscalculated. Chicago playlist is 150 minutes (2.5 hours).

Shortest song: 2:36
Longest is a suite that is broken up into multiple tracks on Spotify. Longest individual song on Spotify: 7:19
 
I would answer that no - I didn't get tired of them, in fact I was surprised how NOT tired of them I was after a ton of listening. The worst that happened is I bumped my long standing #30 song for something else in the last week because despite my love of the guitar on the track, Mr. Mascis' finally wore on me on that one. :lol:

This might become a routine for me after last month - pick a random band each month to dive into and make a top 31 playlist for.

It actually made me appreciate Adams even more. 31 deep and the last song is as good as any. He’s a little too prolific though so I can’t keep up.

I have a feeling, this may not be a one time deal.
Even better - I might have a couple playlists at the ready. ;)
I put together 4 other 31-song playlists from other artists in the run-up to this one while trying to pick an artist. Only one of those (Spoon) was chosen by someone else for this countdown so I have 3 others ready to go for our next......
