Indie rock - Weezer - Island in the Sun

Strongly considered but wanted to use for the next time “Sun” came up.

Can still use again for that one too.

I love this song so much. If you call her a one hit wonder I will fight you.

[Northern Voice]

I wasn't going to pick in indie rock summer because most of my picks will be indie rock anyway but this one is just such a banger. Saw them recently for the 15th time and their back drop was a water tower with "We Can All be Something Bigger" scribbled across it

Me and my friends are like "Double-whiskey-coke-no-ice."
We drink along in double time, might drink too much, but we feel fine
We're gonna build something, this summer.
Gonna build something, this summer.

This summer, grant us all the power to drink on top of water towers,
With love, and trust, and shows, all summer (get hammered!)
Let this be my annual reminder that we can all be something bigger

[Don Quixote]

Hoping my research for a Spotify icon for the indie rock playlist does not result in my getting targeted ads for the next month saying “That short-sleeved flannel shirt you were looking at is now 10% off!”

 

[Drunken knight]

i typically still use pandora. one of my favorite lists is "cover songs."

which list i put on often depends on where i am:
if i am near the coast, i might throw on "laid back beach music" or "jimmy buffet"
if we are driving around wine country, i might throw on some classical or "rat pack"

Cover songs are generally one of the two areas my wife and I disagree vehemently. She hates 95% of them. I like the vast majority.
The other area is birds. I love birds, she hates them.

yeah... we are fairly aligned, though i can get into metal, punk, celtic, faster ska (I like all).. so sometime if i am alone ill throw those on

The Road - Frank Turner - road trip

Driver 8 - REM - road trip

Don, if you don't think they fit then just scrap them. They both are always on my road trip mixes.

Definitely fit — either songs about vacations/road trips, or something you’d play on a road trip. So, sounds like it fits both.

 

[Tick]

Vacation/road trip:

B-52's - Roam

The Animals - We Gotta Get Out Of This Place

I've been traveling to Georgia lately, and I just can't get Love Shack out of my head every time I'm headed down the Atlanta Highway.

Same problem in LA - every song and town name seems to have a song about it.

Re-rolls are usually involved in these things, so yes.

 

[Don Quixote]

Do these loop around? Like will we get another shot at Sun songs in a few days?

Yep, I’ll keep rolling the dice for the categories, so Sun will come back around. I’ll plan to give each category at least two goes at it. If something still feels short time-wise, I may give it a third try.

And still a couple of hours for any still wanting to make selections for 5/31. I see Krista was still thinking about her second one.

Yeah, sorry I missed the deadline, but I'm sure I'll get another chance!

 

[krista4]

Indie rock - Weezer - Island in the Sun

This was one of my top considerations on the "Sun" deadline I missed. Just love it.

 

[krista4]

I'm really sorry, because I know a lot of people hate this band (probably @Uruk-Hai does), and I personally don't like much of their stuff, but it's just a quintessential roadtrip-type song for me.

The Eagles - Take It Easy

 

[Ilov80s]

I'm really sorry, because I know a lot of people hate this band (probably @Uruk-Hai does), and I personally don't like much of their stuff, but it's just a quintessential roadtrip-type song for me.

The Eagles - Take It Easy

For me this is a band where the hate is so overboard that it’s gone the other way and they are a bit underappreciated.

 

[Don Quixote]

Enough posts today that I’ll post some new categories per the dice for tomorrow too. If someone was offline today and wants to select some catch-ups tomorrow, that is fine. Categories will come back around too.

• Fourth of July mix
• Folk/acoustic summer

 

[Pip's Invitation]

I'm really sorry, because I know a lot of people hate this band (probably @Uruk-Hai does), and I personally don't like much of their stuff, but it's just a quintessential roadtrip-type song for me.

The Eagles - Take It Easy

For me this is a band where the hate is so overboard that it’s gone the other way and they are a bit underappreciated.

I unabashedly love the first two albums, and this was their debut single/lead track on debut album. So I'm totally cool with it. I'm not into their later stuff for the most part.

The Eagles - Take It Easy

For me this is a band where the hate is so overboard that it’s gone the other way and they are a bit underappreciated.

I generally really hate this band but I was at the local craft beer festival tonight and a cover of a song was played and I liked the song and recognized it was a cover but took me a while to place it.

It was Take it to the Limit.

The Eagles - Take It Easy

Oh, no. I like a lot of Eagles songs. I got tired of the members whining about not being taken seriously enough, but they knew how to make enjoyable records (until The Long Run, when the wheels fell off).

Just realized I have a perfect summer song called Summer Sun - at least 3 categories there!

 

[simey]

I like the Eagles, and I even like their The Long Run album. Some of my favorites off of that album are King of Hollywood, The Sad Cafe, I Can't Tell You Why, Those Shoes, and In The City.

 

[Tick]

There are some Gigamesh remixes that are great, but I can't find them on Spotify anymore. I get stubs like this: https://open.spotify.com/track/02lK14o7j1EAKmcMW01fsA
