It's my birthday tomorrow.

All plans have been cancelled/rearranged due to covid.

Can you give me your favourite late 80s/ 90s/early 00s tracks so I can have a good solitary groove in the kitchen with my gin tomorrow evening?

Happy Birthday. Sorry to hear that. Will you be able to reschedule?
You definitely need the following to lift spirits

  • Back to Life by Soul II Soul
  • Like a Prayer by Madonna

I hope you still get cake. It goes well with gin x

Ooohh black parade is a great song. Early 00s was a great time for alternative music

Itsthelookitsthelook · 29/07/2022 22:06

Oh, I'm sorry, that sucks. Wishing you a happy birthday!

Do you have Spotify? They have some amazing playlists, I like to start with one of them and then go down a rabbit hole adding songs that I associate!

I was an Indie kid so mine would be Ocean Colour Scene - The Day We Caught The Train, Oasis - Champagne Supernova, Dodgy - Good Enough, Supergrass - Alright, Ash - Girl from Mars
