Mumsnet, write me a playlist...

[lucysmam]

Add one song...any song...and I will give it a listen. I always play the same stuff & need a change

Thanks!

Ooh and cornflake girl by tori amos

No Reason - Chemical Brothers
Leftwing and Cody- I feel it
Ariel Beesley - So Baby
Artic Monkeys-Crying Lightning

Suzanne Vega - Luka
All Saints - Black Coffee
The Farm - Altogether Now
James - Sit Down
Keane - Bedshaped
Deep Purple - Black Knight

Oooh and Crowded House - Pineapple Head

I tried to pick some you might not have heard

Anyhow- Tedeschi Trucks band
Nobody Told Me- Vintage Trouble

A bit harder edged but Mumsnet can cope with swearing I think.
I think both these artists are genius and love most of their stuff.

Jobseeker- Sleaford Mods
Jogging- Richard Dawson

Glass house - Machine Gun Kelly
Somebody else - the 1975
Candy - cameo

Ted Hawkins - There stands the glass
Niall McNamee. Step by steps

The Stranglers - Always the Sun

Hazard- RIchard marx

This woman’s work - Kate Bush

For the Mumsnet playlist
Cats in the Cradle - Ugly Kid Joe

The story of the relationship between a father and son, where the father is always too busy (or out doing his time consuming hobby, most likely cycling 😉) to spend time with his son who’s growing up. It’s a cover so other versions will be available on Spotify depending on your preferred musical style.

This thread prevented me doing the batch cooking I planned to last night because I was too inspired to embark on a journey of musical discovery. Some of these gems are absolute stonkers. Thanks Mumsnet!

Don't let me do that again tonight though or my minced beef will get past it 😉

Eminem didn't steal Labi Siffre's song. He sampled it, and credited him for it.

Sugar Mouse - Oh, atoms

Love Queen Ifrica! Thanks for the reminder, listening to Below the Waist right now

Also OP, Uptown Top Ranking by Althea and Donna is an absolute classic. Plus Girly Girly by Sophia George. Got loads of other suggestions if that kind of music is to your taste!
