a small handful of Grace’s Spotify playlists
a link to my profile lol in case, for some bizarre reason, you want to follow me
strings — the strings in these songs might not even be prominent but I believe them to be underrated and/or cool. (Faves: Forget About Dre, Selfless, Cold, and Composed, Independent Women Pt. 1)
HORNS — the songs in this playlist, on the other hand, have VERY prominent horns. And they’re all good. (Let Me Clear My Throat, Show Me What You Got, a lot of James Brown songs, Crazy in Love)
pairs of songs with eerily similar intros — this is one of my more popular playlists and one of the playlists i’m most proud of. It consists of songs that have REALLY similar intros. Sometimes it’s the same note played on the same instrument. Sometimes it’s the same chord or interval. Some are identical and some are a bit of a stretch. Some are identical for one second and some identical intros go on for 10 seconds. Please let me know if you hear of any in your travels. I should note that samples don’t count. (So don’t suggest “Walk on the Wild Side” & “Can I Kick It?”) (Back to Black/Baby Love, Are You Gonna Be My Girl/You Can’t Hurry Love, Warning/Picture Book)
Songs For Short Attention Spans AKA The Holy Grail — This is a playlist I’ve been working on for years. Every song on this playlist changes at some point in the middle. Some of them are long drastic changes (“Bohemian Rhapsody”) and some are very quick (“Numbers on the Board”). Also the subtlety of the songs vary. But there should be a recognizable change in tempo or in the melody/key. Also, there’s no musical term for this occurrence which is really frustrating. (Band On The Run, Suite: Judy Blue Eyes, Pyramids, Get Buck In Here, On Sight)
drums /percussion— cool drums and percussion. (Ooh Child, Roxanne, Monks, Music To Walk Home By, Fire)
bass lines — All these songs have great bass parts. (The Distance, Waterfalls, Morning Bell, Walk On The Wild Side)
WACK time signatures — time signatures that are either weird or they change throughout the song (Pyramid Song, 7/4 (Shoreline), Who Could Win A Rabbit, Come On! Feel The Illinoise)
Piano Hooks in Hip Hop Songs — Hip hop songs with hooks that are played on a piano/organ/keyboard. An instrument that has keys. (Still D.R.E., C.R.E.A.M., Just A Friend, Lemonade)
***MISC ALL TIME FAVE SONGS*** — these are songs that have a place in my heart. There’s a wide variety here.
GYM/pregame — self explanatory. There are over 500 songs but I recommend browsing it.
Songs with handclaps/snaps —(Hollaback Girl, Stuck In The Middle With You, Pass That Dutch, See-Line Woman)
GIRL POWER PLAYLIST — songs by women that pump me up and make me feel powerful and sexy but don’t make me think about dudes.
Folksy/Harmony/Sweet — know what you’re getting into with this one
get pumped (day) — a lot of these are self explanatory
duet to me — i made this playlist when I dated a singer so most of these songs have a man/woman thing. I don’t really listen to this playlist but I think it’s fair that I include it.
pre show — these are songs I listen to before I do improv
Toast!
warm up warm up
middle school — These were my favorite bands/songs in middle school. This doesn’t include rap music bc all the rap music i listened to in middle school I still listen to now.
AccaFaves — My favorite accapella songs. I’m talking pop accapella songs. Not choral.
RUNNING2ROCK — Classic rock songs that are fast enough so I can exercise to them. (Long Train Runnin, La Grange, Black Dog, Long Cool Woman, Life In The Fast Lane)
