Music Party Playlist, the 19’s

Just listened to the “Music Party #19’s” playlist. Starts with “Synchronicity II” by The Police and features some big songs like “I Will Always Love You”, “One Sweet Day”, and “Hey Ya”.

But my 2 favorites are from back-to-back years 2001 and 2002. In 2001 “Rockin’ The Suburbs” by Ben Folds is a tongue-in-cheek parody of angsty young rock artists “y’all don’t know what it’s like, being male, middle-class and white”. And the album is one of my all-time favorites. In 2002 it was Raul Malo’s Spanish-influenced “I Said I Love You” which clicked with our inner circle. From another superior album, “Today”.

Another highlight is “Breathe Me” by Sia which was featured in the closing sequence of the series “Six Feet Under”, a brilliant piece of art.
