I was talking with my kid over dinner just now and he asked me several things.
The first (disparagingly) how long is my playlist of music? (23 hours and 55 minutes)
The second (also disparaging) when was the last time I added something new music to my playlist? (Last Saturday when I added Mary Jane’s Last Dance by Tom Petty)
The last (not surprisingly disparaging) could I name a top 5 of songs?
Curious to hear your answers! |

1. I have a lot of playlists organised by genre and occasion, the longest is the Christmas Day playlist at 6 hours 3 minutes 😂
2. The latest song I added was to Irish Folk and it was Blue is the Eye by Ye Vagabonds 😍
3. I genuinely couldn’t, changes by the day 😊 |

Third … my top five is a revolving door ! I remember stuff randomly .

My kid breaks my heart most days by saying he doesn’t really like music. And he thinks I have terrible taste in music and most of my (nearly 24 hour playlist!) ‘all sound the same’ 😭😭😭
Well done on choosing a top 5!! I was expecting most to say that was too hard. |

I dont do playlists. I tend to listen to albums although about a month ago i started listening to my ipod on random.
I buy about 10 albums a month, a mixture of old and new, so i am quite up to date. |

Music was my first love....🎶
I would estimate my 'playlist' end to end would currently be approximately 600-700 hours 😯
The latest addition would have been Lisa O'Neill - The Wind Doesn't Blow That Far Right
Top 5 would be absolutely impossible!!!
I Trawl The Megahertz by Paddy MacAloon would always be near the top though!
It's an absolutely stunning piece of music,composed from a montage of random voices on late-night radio shows/phone-ins 📻
Heartbreaking yet inspiring!

Kids usually have different taste in music to their parents generation, when you were 20 was your taste in music the same as your parents?
Music changes generationally so what is cool and in today will not be in 20 years.
My top 5:
1) Roxette - it must have been love
2) Starship - Nothings gonna stop us now
3) Sinead O Connor - Nothing compares to you
4) Words - the bee gees
5) 1 direction - what makes you beautiful |

not local even if it says I am |
1. I don’t really make playlists that I repeat, I just queue up whatever I’m in the mood for.
2. I added Dan le Sac & Scroobius Pip to my band camp last month because they released Live in places.
3. My top five (currently because it can and does frequently change):
Marillion - Warm Wet Circles
Dan le Sac & Scroobius Pip - Letter From God To Man
Rival Sons - Where I’ve Been
Reef - Choose To Live
Alien Weaponry - Kai Tangata
