October 2021

It’s late, I get it. These are the #hits from October.

girl. – Lifeline

💩💩💩💩💩

“Disconnected from my head
(alright, i’m alright)
Bipolar like she said
(alright i don’t sound fine)”

Lovely little pop ditty.

HighSchool – Sirens

💩💩💩💩💩

“You get in your car
Your walking down the street
You listen to the sirens
You listen to me”

It’s already a good song, then like the last minute or so. It kicks.

Jj – Are You Still in Valida?

💩💩💩💩💩

“I never thought about you this winter; I never thought ’bout you this spring
But now when the summer is here I never thought I’d think about you again
You smoke like a young… Your flower is in your hair
When you were always to late, I still waited for you in this sweet summer air
So I wonder my love are you still in vallda? Like 10 summers ago…
I wonder my love are you still in vallda? Like 10 summers ago…
Someday i know we’ll meet again but I said that every summer
And every summer is the summer closer further away from you… “

I just love, love, love this song.

Kenickie – Millionaire Sweeper

💩💩💩💩💩

“Now her kisses, full at first,
Ache like blisters waiting to get burst”

Digging in to the archives. Still just a massive hit.

Low Hummer – Never Enough

💩💩💩💩💩

“I hate this place, I hate the world when it’s not on your side, you’re living strange, but you’re the one”

Another hit that really pays off for that last minute or so after the build.

Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark – Enola Gay

💩💩💩💩💩

“It’s 8:15
And that’s the time that it’s always been
We got your message on the radio
Conditions normal, and you’re coming home”

Just an all time classic melody.

Slow Pulp – At It Again

💩💩💩💩💩

“Don’t wanna feel like I’m split in two
Don’t wanna show that I cannot seem to follow through”

Real 90s feel. That’s a good thing.

Teen Jesus & The Jean Teasers – AHHHH!

💩💩💩💩💩⭐

“Now I’m second-guessing what I thought
And every breath that I took
Was this a bad idea?
But I am, or at least I thought was
Having fun, but you fucked it all up
This time, I know you didn’t mean to”

Ahhhh, fuckin A! I might watch live versions of this song over and over again. There’s a little paradiddle on the drums at some point that gets me everytime. And possibly the best band name there’s ever been.

The Radio Dept. – Pulling Our Weight

💩💩💩💩💩

“Many miles from where I’m sleeping
You share laughter in the evenings
As do I, in the great divine
Yours is mine

We’ll find love
The kind we’re dreaming of”

Another blast from the past. Great memories.

Tired Lion – Drama Club

💩💩💩💩💩

“Feels like we’re heading straight into the sun
Stop me from crying that war can’t be won
And I know this sounds lame but please
Tell me that you’re into Shakespeare”

Punchy little number to finish the playlist, think it sums it all up quite nicely.
