- Post subject: Meme theme playlists
|
I enjoy making meme and theme playlists, how about you? Do you have any you'd like to share? I'd love to see them.
Here is one of my favourites.
House music
Get Out of my House - Kate Bush
Burning Down the House - Talking Heads
House of the Rising Sun - The Animals
Our House - Madness
It's my House - Diana Ross
Country House - Blur
House of Cards - Radiohead
Lego House - Ed Sheeran
Happy House - Siouxsie and the Banshees
House of Memories - Panic! At the Disco
House on Fire - Sia
Houses of the Holy - Led Zeppelin
House - The Psychedelic Furs
(I'm thinking about making a new wave playlist that is just songs about bodies of water or something)

Great list. Lot of great songs. And as a matter of fact I'm always participating in theme lists on a different music site. It's like a game. Right now we're doing one with Streets, Roads etc. in the title. And a few other ones too. Let me get the link so you can see.

There's a bunch more there too.

I'm not exactly sure what a meme playlist is.

I don't think anybody is exactly sure what they are, but AFAIK the term is most commonly used to refer to Spotify playlists in which the song titles are chosen and then arranged into sentences that comment on (or illustrate) a popular/viral internet meme of some kind.
Such a playlist might look something like this...
- I Found a Reason (Velvet Underground)
- To Talk To You (P.J. Harvey)
- About the Weather (Magazine)
- But It's So (Soundpool)
- Lonely and Wet (The Mekons)
- I Cant Stand It (The Specials)
- So You'll Aim Toward the Sky (Grandaddy)
- And Dream of Sheep (Kate Bush)
- Until the End of the World (U2)
- Which Will (Nick Drake)
- Come Tomorrow (Dave Matthews Band)
- If You Wear That Velvet Dress (U2)
- Backwards (Coil)
Except that the resulting sentence doesn't reference a meme, so the other Spotify users would probably just ignore it and tell me to STFU. At best, they might tell me it's "cute" and then tell me to STFU. Either way, the whole thing tends to give unfair emphasis to song titles that begin with prepositions, which in most other contexts look rather pretentious and silly. That's why I don't usually participate in such things.

There aren't any hard and fast rules, it's just an option to make a playlist that is funny or subverts expectations in some way. Can be anything you want really. : )

4. Gift of Grace - Jessica King
5. Except for Grace - The Martins
6. Enough Grace for Today - Palma Pascale
7. Road of Grace - Joanna Carlson
8. When There's No Hope (There Is Grace) - The Dunaways
9. Grace / Grace Greater Than Our Sin - The Martins
10. Amazing Grace - Deborah Liv Johnson
11. His Grace Was Greater - The Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir
12. Picture of Grace - Gaither Vocal Band
13. Sinner Saved by Grace - Heritage Singers
14. Were it Not for Grace - Larnelle Harris
15. Your Grace - Heritage Singers
16. Grace Ain't Fair - The Nelons
17. A Friend Called Grace - Phillips, Craig & Dean

20. What Grace Is Mine (feat. Riley Harrison Clark) - Lauren Talley
21. Thanks to Calvary and Amazing Grace - The Talleys

I also like to make playlists of different versions of the same song. I like hearing and comparing how different artists perform the same song. Does anyone else here make playlists like this?
