BIC Playlist

[danielledanielle]

There's music all around us!  This thread can serve as inspo for finding your next tune, discovering the song of the season or just vibing off a playlist!

This was inspired by my latest question in Beauty Ice Breakers and @JoSometimes 

If you had a theme song (think like 90s sitcom) when you put your makeup or skincare on, what would it be?

So, if you got your Sephora "Year end Recap" there's actually a playlist in there for Spotify.

Here's the playlist if you're interested: 😁 

 

 

Well played Sephora 

Is there anything you'd add?

I feel like "Free Your Mind" by En Vogue fits

[Titian06]

@danielledanielle - I glanced at mine, but didn't notice the Spotify list.

Being old:

Maneater = Daryl Hall & John Oates

Diamonds = Janet Jackson w/Herb Alpert

Still being old, add:

The Glamorous Life, Sheila E.

Beautiful Life, Ace of Base

[danielledanielle]

Beautiful life is a perfect fit for this list @Titian06 ... Glamorous Life, too

Inspired by Collab week Capsule Makeup Collection Challenge 2025 

 

Some of these are features, but you get the idea.. Also adding "Good as H3ll" - Lizzo & Ariana 

[danielledanielle]

This week's playlist is "Staycation Radiostation" in line with my current cheek challenge, because I couldn't think of anything else to name it 😂

RITMO samples "Rhythm of the Night" just right IMO

More relevant, now than ever

I love this song.  I can be in a happy relationship and still want to scream this at the top of my lungs at karaoke

Thus far

Summertime can never not be on my playlist this time of year 😂

So DanDan is starting to finally pick up on cues I'm giving him to sleep.  Music was always a part of it, but it was music I don't enjoy listening to.  Someone put me onto Disney lullabies, which was fun, at first.  It's nice and nostalgic, but repetitive.  AND there's so many. So so many.  Who knew?!!  It works for him, but it got old for me.  Until today... When this played.

LoFi Minnie: Chill

"You'll be in my heart" by Jeff Kaale

It's catchy.  I'm rocking him and rocking out, so it got me thinking, what are other relaxing, but dance worthy songs?  Even if you're not putting someone to sleep 😴😄, what are the some that get you to settle in ?  Or if you're on a long drive, what would you listen to?

@danielledanielle  Lo-fi Disney sounds like something I need to explore. (I know lo-fi in general gets a lot of snubs but dude, some of that stuff’s really good!) Noting to self! 

Relaxing but danceable… Flying Lotus comes to mind, especially his Los Angeles album and EPs. So does a lot of Slowdive, mostly Souvlaki (possibly their best known album) but also parts of their early EPs—back when they were more experimental about getting unusual ethereal sounds out of guitars… “She Calls,” “Catch the Breeze,” and my favorite Slowdive song, “Albatross” which is somehow both relaxing and energizing. And then when I think of all the different kinds of dancing, and all the different global genres of relaxing dance music… yeah, this could be a long list. 😅 I’ll come back to this. 

On a long drive, I’ll listen to nearly anything: classical, jazz, rock, metal, hip hop, industrial (like, Einstürzende Neubauten industrial), old Motown, my old 4AD albums, global/“world” music, whatever category bands like OOIOO fall into (their Gold & Green and Armonico Hewa albums are my happy place)… heck, I’ve played Johnny Cash during long Michigan drives. It all depends on my mood that day, and which music source (phone and/or larger capacity external hard drive) I bring with me. 

[danielledanielle]

@WinglessOne, I think you'll be into it.  I can totally picture you as lo fi Minnie on the album cover here.

Ok, making a note of flying lotus... I'm trying to expose him to different genres, mostly out of curiosity to see what he likes, so ty

@danielledanielle great thread! When my sister was a kiddo I had those songs stuck in my head we have quite the age gap so it was like to doodle bops or something!! Haha. I actually get all my current music from my brother he has quite the playlist! 
I’m currently into the nostalgic tunes.  

I love a lot of sounds I find in reels

Rita Ora Poison remix 

The day we met 

Past life’s 

I’ll reply to this when I find the rest of the names ❤️🫶

For my personal quiet time, Norah Jones - Come Away With Me. The entire album is just smooth, quiet jazz and her iconically sweet, soothing voice. 

In the car, it’s been my karaoke playlist which consists of Nsync, Backstreet Boys, Spice Girls, Michael Buble, Queen, ABBA, Britney Spears, Coldplay, Ed Sheeran, Green Day, Gavin Degraw, John Mayer, etc… (A very ecclectic combo of songs, I know!)

Spotify has a lot of nice lo-fi covers of pop music which makes it nice for bedtime but also pleasant for mama/papa. 

[PrettyPaint]

@JoSometimes  Now you've got me wanting to listen to the Spice Girls! 

[JoSometimes]

@PrettyPaint Nooo… You should stop right now, thank you very much…

[PrettyPaint]

@JoSometimes  Gotta slow it down baby, gotta have some fun...

[danielledanielle]

Thank you for the Spotify recs, @JoSometimes .  Your karaoke playlist is 👍🏽👍🏽

[JoSometimes]

@danielledanielle Thank youuuu! There’s a few clips of me singing karaoke on IG if you can find me. 😉

We listened to golden 60's classics alot as chill music when my kiddo was a wee babe. I even remember listening to A collection of Greenday Lullabies,  a Paul Simon solo album called So beautiful or So What. (And not music *alot* of Vinyl Cafe stories.)

Those are memories when we had no air-conditioner and a mid day drive was the only was too cool down and give him a nice nap driving and listening to tunes. 🎵
