So if you've ever had that one partner in life who you were powerless against, regardless of what they did, this song just speaks that raw truth.
Monsters - All-time Low (f. Demi Lovato and blackbear) - Clean version - 2020
Gonna head into 2021 posting some of my all-time faves.
Let Me Clear My Throat - DJ Kool (1996)
It's way harder to find this version than it should be, but it's the absolute best.
All I Want For Christmas (Elementary School Edition) - Mariah Carey f. The Roots, Jimmy Fallon, and Cute Elementary School Kids
Here is a serious headnodder for you for the weekend.
Watch Your Step - Disclosure f. Kelis - Energy (2020)
I'm still up so it's still going. This one is p. mellow.
You'll probably really like it if you give it a try.
Good Luck - Broken Bells - Good Luck (2019)
I told you I'm digging tonight. You ever wanted to hear a Ukrainian woman spit the hottest verses you can't understand?
Like seriously, this is inexplicably good.
I'm Leaving My Home - Alyona Alyona
If you haven't figured out yet, I'm all in on Moonchild.
The Other Side - Moonchild - The Other Side (2019)
This is just a song that just makes you feel warm inside. I absolutely love it.
The List - Moonchild - Voyager (2018)
No long explanations for any of these tonight.
Ya dig it, or you don't.
Kiss of Life - Sade (KAYTRANADA edit) - Unreleased (2018)
I guess this is an insomina and crate digging night.
So be it.
Envious - Aluna - Renaissance (2020)
'Tis the season (to make sure that this version never gets forgotten)
Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer - DMX - Unreleased (2012)
I really dig this song and video. The video itself has this kinda meld of look of A-ha's Take Me On and a Daft Punk vibe.
Musically it's like an upbeat, more refined Louis Cole song. I'm not sure if that's better, but it is catchy.
Glowing in the Dark - Django Django (2020) - Album yet to be released.
On repeat all day.
Philly stand up.
It's Over - Free At Last - (Philadelphia) Freeway (2007)
Go nothing else to go with today. Can't add to the exhaustion so take this gem from one of my favorite games of all time.
Counterattack - Xenoblade Chronicles 2 (2017) - Yatsunori Mitsuda
Feeling down or anxious? A little music can help.
It's better having this stuck in your head for hours than the alternative.
Seagulls (Stop it now!) - Bad Lip Reading
In honor of a lot of things and people today.
Remember Me (Duo version) - Miguel and Natalia Lafourcade - Coco Motion Picture Soundtrack (2017)
Last one for this set. I guess I'm ending on two amazing love songs.
I don't know how familiar Anita Baker is to the overall CoSo collective, but few do it better.
There's something about her velvety voice and the power she can let loose vocally when she wants.
You need a wholesome cleanser song for 2020. Let Mrs. Baker sing you a beautiful song.
Rapture - Anita Baker - Rapture (1997)
I am in the wilderness,
You are in the music...
Sade's voice makes me melt everytime I hear it. She has some mega hits that were in movies but that's not what we are listening to here.
Lover's Rock is just a beautiful song about how a woman loves her mate, who represents the ultimate in safety , security and love.
She's singing about the love that you are lucky to have if you've got it.
Lover's Rock - Sade - Lover's Rock (2000)
Oh.
My.
God.
I love this song. Everything about it is literally perfect. It's got an incredibly catchy beat. It's short and to the point, it deals with complex and messy emotions, and Emelia's vocals really sell the self-loathing, fear, love, and happiness all wrapped up in a ball of emotions.
It's 2-1/2 minutes long. You might end up listening to it for 10.
Ur Perfect, I Hate It - Micky Valen f. Emelia Ali (2020)
I don't know why this isn't on more Halloween playlists. Surprise a few people by throwing RJD2's The Horror in and watch people start to nod their heads and ask "what song is this???"
Lots of clashing chords, some break beats, a really effin funky bassline and quotes from a cheesy 50s horror film make this a classic.
The Horror - RJD2 - Deadringer (2003)
