Weird And Oddly Specific Playlists

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

Chvrches have said it's because they knew they'd be impossible to google otherwise.^[1]^

Some classic historian/Romeaboo please correct me, but iirc in Latin the “v” was actually used as a “u”. So for artists like Sewerslvt and CHRVCHES they are technically using it in that context and it’s kinda cool.

Alvvays is just doing a stylized “w” and it looks dumb, 0/10.
