a place for weird, unique, or oddly specific playlists. please read the pinned post here for a more detailed description

the rules:

  1. be civil. let’s try to keep our community as chill as possible. no bullying, zero tolerance for transphobia, hate speech or any of that bigoted bullshit.
  1. be content with the content. if someone didn't make a playlist the way you would, make your own and post it please. no bullying, no picking on, mocking or complaining about anyones playlist or musical tastes.
  1. remember: all music is good music to someone. general discussions about music you like and don’t like is fine, but please refrain from comments that will make someone feel bad about what they enjoy.
  1. no self-promotion. this is not a group for promoting your music or a business, website, app, instagram.. you get the idea. it's just playlists in here

Nice list, even a few songs I've never heard. I'm gonna suggest adding Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark - Enola Gay, Tears For Fears - Everybody Wants To Rule The World, and Blondie - Atomic (although technically its from 1979)

Thanks for checking it out!

Enola gay was an obvious miss, duh. Fixed.

I've listened to EWTRTW approx 4 trillion times and never twigged that it could be about nuclear war but it's obvious now. Added.

Atomic is not about the bomb as far as I can tell.
