Please Don't Stop the Music: My Chronological Spotify Playlists
This project started with the eighties, and then because I kept getting frustrated by not being able to add songs from the seventies or the nineties, it escalated from there. It functions both as a compendium of every song I like or love that's available on Spotify and as a combined time capsule and love letter to humanity, a swathe of culture from a tiny slice of history on this pale blue dot. I've made a great effort to include songs from as many nations and languages as possible. I realize it's egotistical to expect anyone else to care about my music taste, but after all the hours of work I've put into these playlists compared to the amount of time I'll actually have to listen to them before I die, I really hope other people will discover and enjoy them too.
