Help build my playlist?

Post Reply New Topic

I am a "member" of a music website in which people make playlists on their own and put them out for the world to listen to. It's not really being a member, it's more of "I gave you my email so now I can make playlists, too"

Maybe this belongs in the 'love and dating' section, but I'll try here first.

I'm actually planning on making 3 playlists in total, all of them revolving around relationships. The first would be songs that describe what it feels like before; the second - during; the third - afterwards


here's what I have so far (any input would be greatly appreciated)

Playlist 1
Would you go with me - Josh Turner
Whistle for the choir - the fratellis
Don't wanna miss a thing - Aerosmith
The Pretender - Foo Fighters
More than a feelin' - Boston


Playlist 2
Kiss me - Sixpence none the richer
You - Collective soul
Happy together - The turtles
Eight days a week - The beatles
Your song - Elton john
She loves you - The beatles


Playlist 3
Love stinks - J Geils band
Love hurts - Nazereth
Don't speak - No doubt
Every rose has its thorn - Poison
Here without you - 3 doors down


Each playlist needs to have at least 8 songs in them, so if anyone could help I'd appreciate it

Are you sure you want to include this? It's one of the most annoying songs ever. I think I remember hearing that it was originally written for Celine Dion.

What about Tom Jones, Delilah for the after section?

Either way, thanks

I'm interested. I make playlists all the time for specific things. To evoke feelings, or set a setting, or themed. The site is blocked at work and on my phone it would get to where I could click the play button but it wouldn't play.

I suggest this for list 3:
