Curated by the Bear and Badger- Moots Forza Playlist - The Bear and Badger

Diluted Dante

The playlist thread returns!

Playlists may be themed or not, as decided by the curator.
You will pick one song. Exceptions can be made for tracks that are intro's to other tracks. Curators decision final.
The playlist will be found in the Dropbox and on Spotify.
It is not a requirement for the song to be on Spotify, if it is missing, that playlist will simply be incomplete.
It will be helpful if you can upload your own choice to the Dropbox, if you don't have it please state that and I will do it for you.

I know Oli wants to run free for all for his turn [he is up next], so I'll go with a themed one. The theme I choose is Female Fronted. What does this mean? Just pick a song where the lead vocals are sung by a woman. Any style, and genre, as long as it's got female vocals.

I'll keep a list of, and links to all the playlists, including from older threads and Oli's Of The Year from Maroon here, so I'll reserve the next few posts for that.

I've Made a Huge Mistake

A track from about 15-16 (GIVE OR TAKE, but if you don't know what I mean by "that" age then you don't exist) that you bigged up, thought was "it", and in reflection, that is definitely not the case. You can still like the song. As I said, think about something you might still own, but if it came on your shuffle at a party then you would seek to skip.
