New To My Liked List: February 9, 2024
Fifteen of my favorite tracks added to my liked list this week...
Happy Friday. Good morning. Here’s to a weekend full of avid and anticipatory listening. Music makes the weekend, after all. Well, I mean, it does for me! I’ll let you determine that for yourselves.
It’s day two of my much needed four-day weekend, and my intent is to get caught up on listening, mix tape and mix CD making, and some more vinyl searching. But first, a look at the best of what made its way onto my Spotify Liked Songs playlist this week.
The Latest Additions
It’s been another eclectic and decade hopping week of building my eclectic playlist. I went back to the 1960s and there are several 2024 new releases among today’s fifteen favorites.
I was shocked to find, as a die-hard Frightened Rabbit and Scott Hutchison fan, some songs missing from my discography and liked list. But miss an album, I had, a various artists collection titled First Edition.
The list runs from folk ballads to electronic and rap. It was truly an eclectic week. My favorite kind.
While I love all fifteen tracks that made today’s NTMLL compilation, there are standouts:
“Caroline” by Phony
”I Forgot The Fall” by Scott Hutchison + Rod Jones
”FACETIME” by Wes Ghost
”On the Ave V2” by Pinhead Gunpowder
”I’m In Love” by Jelani Aryeh
”under your tongue” by Pretty Jane

What say you? Did I get a passing grade this week? What stands out? What did you add to your own liked lists?
I have to confess I have never listened to “Frightened Rabbit” but off the back of “I Forgot the Fall” I have remedied that and now really need to do a deep dive!
It made me wonder if you are familiar with the band “Paws”. There are certain similarities there - they are certainly very Scottish!
