character/film playlists updated

characters:

Arisu Ryohei (Alice in Borderland, 2020-present): i'm (impatiently) waiting for the new season to drop. but in the meantime i made a japanese sad boy playlist for my favorite character on the show.

Carmen Berzatto (The Bear, 2022-present): songs that i think carmie would listen to, if he even had time to listen to music.

Christopher Moltisanti (The Sopranos, 1999-2007): he's one of my favorite characters from the show bcs he's so interesting to me. like he's so clearly depressed from the beginning of the show but no one really takes him seriously.

Donnie Darko (Donnie Darko, 2001): mostly based off the therapy scene where the therapist asks donnie "do you feel alone right now?". it's got a bunch of songs from the 80's but also some more recent that i think match the vibe still.

Fiona Gallagher (Shameless, 2011-2021): my girl just gets overlooked all the time and the show literally never let her be happy. so i've made her a playlist bcs i appreciate her.

Jake Peralta (Brooklyn Nine Nine, 2013-2021): just a bunch of songs that i think jake would jam to plus songs that he likes in the actual show.

Jughead Jones (Riverdale, 2017-2023): yes i watch riverdale unironically. yes, i know it's bad. idc. jughead is my favorite character and so i've made a playlist with a bunch of songs that either i think he'd like or that he referenced on the show.

Laurie (Little Women, 2019): completely based off the scene where laurie confesses his crush on jo. so just a yearning/unrequited love playlist based off this quote.

Lou Bloom (Nightcrawler, 2014): based off the tense and synth heavy soundtrack from the movie. i included a few songs from the soundtrack but also added some other rock or synth-y songs.

Patrick Bateman (American Psycho, 2000): i laughed audibly in the movie when patrick was listening to walking on sunshine so i needed to make a playlist of other songs i think he would listen to, not because he liked them but just because he needs to "fit in".

Peeta Mellark (Hunger Games Series, 2012-2015): what a man. truly. this is just a bunch of songs that give off peeta vibes to me.

Travis Bickle (Taxi Driver, 1976): a playlist that i organized to play like a decent into madness, akin to travis' in the movie. this playlist includes some older songs from the likes of Frank Sinatra and Johnny Cash but also relatively more modern bands like Radiohead. In fact, i think this playlist is mostly Radiohead.

Troy Bolton (High School Musical Trilogy, 2006-2008): made a 2000's (mostly r&b playlist) that i feel like troy would like. this is solely made bcs i've seen this trilogy an ungodly amount of times and so i feel qualified to make these assumptions. also this all started bcs like 2-3 years a go i saw an edit for troy with the song because of you by neyo and i was never the same.

MCU/DC characters:

Bruce Wayne/Batman (The Batman, 2022): this is my favorite depiction of batman, solely because he's so unapologetically emo and a loser. so i made him a playlist that he can listen to while he applies his matte black jefree starr eye shadow in the bat cave or smth.

Miles Morales (The Spiderverse Film Series, 2018-present): the BEST spiderman that there ever was. i was forever changed when i saw across the spider verse and so i immediately put together a bunch of songs that i think miles would listen to while he swings between buildings.

Peter Parker (The Sam Raimi Trilogy, 2002-2007): toby's depiction of peter is one of my favs so it only felt right that i make him a playlist.

Peter Quill/Star Lord (2014-present): songs that peter would play on his walkman. most songs are canon to the movies and others are my own suggestions.

Sam Wilson (Captain America: Brave New World, 2025): this is MY captain america. idc what nobody says.

Tony Stark/Iron Man (2008-2019): my favorite marvel character actually. so it only makes sense that i would have to make him a rock playlist.

Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch (Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, 2022): based off the quote where she says "This is me being reasonable." bcs first off the way that elizabeth olsen delivered that line was perfect but also bcs it shows just how unhinged wanda became bcs of all her loss. so i made a sad/angry/desperate combo playlist for her.

tv shows:

Dance Academy (2010-2013): if you are unfamiliar with this show, it is an australian tv show that is set in an elite dance academy/high school.

"i just want so badly to be rid of you." - this was uttered by our main character tara while in an argument with her long time on again/off again boyfriend, christian. this line specifically has been stuck in my head for the better part of a decade and so i've made a playlist that displays the toxicity of their relationship and what led up to tara saying this.

"you all want me to fail." - this playlists is for abigail armstrong. she starts off the show being the bully/mean girl of the show but it's revealed later on that she's struggling with an ED and various other problems. she's a perfectionist as well so this playlist ig encapsulates all of that.

Glee (2009-2015): all my favorite glee covers in release order.

Mr. Robot (2015-2019): based off of elliot mostly and the type of music i think he'd like.

You (2018-2025): made this playlist for joe when season 4 came out and i'm still not done with season 5 (i'm trying to pace myself) so i may add some songs depending on what they play in the soundtrack.

movies:

Black Swan (2010): playlist for the main character nina and her decent into madness at the hands of her own crazed perfectionism

Bones and All (2022): just a bunch of songs that describe the feelings of the 2 main characters of the movie.

Challengers (2024): based off the crazy hype soundtrack from the movie. it includes some songs from the soundtrack but also other artists who make house/club music (i.e. Charli XCX and The Dare).

Girl, Interrupted (1999): playlist was made with daisy in mind but honestly the songs fit for everyone in the movie

The Great Gatsby (2013): based on the vibes of Gatsby's parties through his eyes as he's pining after daisy. some older songs from Dean Martin or Frank Sinatra but also more modern songs from Lorde or Lana Del Rey.

Eternal Sunshine of The Spotless Mind (2004): songs based on the dynamic/relationship of the main characters, clementine and joel.

Dead Poets Society (1989): just the general vibes of the movie. the music doesn't match the setting of the movie tho - so not much 50s music in here. but its for the vibes, trust.

Good Will Hunting (1997):

"it's not your fault." - this playlist was kind of just based on the quote from the movie. it's more of a daddy issues playlist than anything.

will hunting <3 - just some songs that i feel like will would play on his walkman or songs that describe him

Gone Girl (2014):

"i knew he wanted cool girl." - playlist based off of amy dunne and how it felt to be playing "cool girl" for so long

nick dunne - if u couldn't guess based off the name, this is just a playlist from the perspective of nick dunne in the movie

Fight Club (1999): songs that i believe reflect the Narrators mental state in the movie. as a super sleep deprived person (i slept for 3 hours last night), i feel i'm qualified to make this playlist.

The Holdovers (2023): playlist based off the found family vibes of the movie, using only songs from the time period (or before) and songs from the actual soundtrack.

The Hunt (2012): if ur unfamiliar, this movie is about a man who is falsely accused of being a pedophile and the fallout of that. so this playlist is a collection of songs that give off that devestating feeling of no one believing you.

The Iron Claw (2023): songs based off the movies ending - bittersweet.

Joker Duology (2019-2024):

"all i have are negative thoughts" - a playlist for arthur fleck in the first joker movie. has some songs from the soundtrack and other songs that i felt matched the time period and vibes.

folie à deux - based off of the relationship between harley and artuhr in joker 2. has a lot of older music like from fred astaire and frank sinatra. just bcs i felt it matched the vibes of the movie.

Lady Bird (2017): just a playlist based off the mother-daughter relationship in this movie. and also kind of just how it feels to be growing up and approaching graduation but just not wanting to.

May December (2023): this movie truly was not talked about as much as it should have been. but anyways this playlist is mostly based off of the character joe.

Mother (2020): this is a playlist inspired by this japanese movie about a boy and his relationship to his hot mess of a mother. basically a playlist for those with mommy issues

Pearl (2022): mostly based off the final monologue from pearl in the red dress, specifically when she says "i don't feel well." there are a few older songs but mostly they are modern.

Prisoners (2013): the movie starring jake gyllenhaal and hugh jackman. it's mostly based on jake's character, detective loki, but i think it reflects the entire vibe of the movie.

Rush Hour Trilogy (1998-2007): these movies were honestly so hilarious that i needed to make a playlist for lee and carter together. guess which songs represent each character.

Scott Pilgrim vs. The World (2010): a scott pilgrim inspired playlist that includes songs from the original soundtrack

Sound of Metal (2019): this is a movie about a drummer who loses his hearing and how he deals with it. this is just a bunch of mildly depressing rock songs.

A Streetcar Named Desire (1951): based mostly off of blanche's character. there's some older music (i.e. doris day, lesley gore, ella fitzgerald) but also some more modern music (i.e. mitski, fleetwood mac, ethel cain)

books:

The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry: a mostly instrumental playlist based on how the book made me feel. kind of nostalgic and melancholy, but also wistful? idk, just check it out.

Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov: playlist based on the disgusting "relationship" between lolita and humbert humbert.

My Year of Rest and Relaxation by Otessa Moshfegh: based on the narrator of the story who is so depressed and deeply unsatisfied with her life that she chooses to try and sleep for a whole year (almost uninterrupted) by taking copious amounts of sleeping pills. tbh i feel like doing this everyday so i had to make a playlist about it.

Romeo & Juliet by William Shakespeare: just a bunch of songs that tell the story of a tragic romance

untitled manuscript by Me: I started trying to write a book because I got super bored one day and these are some songs that i either mention by name or i feel like match the vibes of the book/main character (it's quite eclectic)

games:

Mouthwashing (2024): saw an edit to this game with headlock by imogen heap and it was so perfect i had to find other songs that matched the eerie/unsettling vibes of the movie just as well.

updated k-pop masterlist:

i made a few new playlists over the past week or so...

*note: most if not all playlists have the songs in release order. also some of these are incomplete bcs i forgot to add some artists or i haven't heard all the albums yet. my bad, we're working on it down at headquarters.

girl groups:

aespa: all my fav songs from these girlies so far

fifth gen girlies: songs from the 5th gen girl groups that i like. includes a lot of ive, babymonster, badvillain, etc.

fourth gen girlies: songs from 4th gen girl groups (that don't already have their own playlists). includes itzy, g-idle, everglow, izone, etc.

le sserafim: my fav girl group of all time, me thinks.

new jeans & illit: shared playlist for these two groups bcs they honsetly don't have enough music individually to make a seperate playlsit (in my opinion) and their style of cutesy girly music goes together well.

nmixx, change up!: my fav nmixx songs (i haven't listened to the new album yet, so it still needs to be updated)

third gen girl group gallivanting: just third gen girl groups. this is technically under construction cuz i need to add blackpink (reluctantly). but so far it has red velvet, gfriend, aoa, etc.

TWICE!: all my fav songs from them and some of the classics

boy groups:

ATEEZ: my fav ateez songs

bullet proof: all my fav bts songs and the popular/obligatory ones.

enhypen: all my fav enhypen songs

fourth/fith gen guys: a bunch of songs from misc. fourth/fifth gen groups (that don't already have their own seperate playlists) includes the boyz, OnlyOneOf, Xdinary Heroes, RIIZE, etc.

nct dream: all the songs i like from them

nct 127!: my fav subunit for sure.

stray kids!: all my fav stray kids songs plus some of the classics

third gen guys: third gen boy groups (not including the groups that have their own playlist). it has exo, shinee, got7, seventeen, etc.

txt: my fav songs from my boys.

wayv!: technically c-pop, i know. but idc i'm putting them here.

soloists:

chung ha: my homegirl fr

mark lee!: my real life HUSBAND. i could never be normal about him.

tae tae: my taemin playlist cuz he's one of my favorite solo artists

TEN: i love ten DOWN. so it's only right that i have a playlist for all my fav songs that he's put out so far.

setlists:

dominATE: setlist for stray kids 2025 tour that i'm gonna see this summer!

towards the light: will to power!: the setlist from the ateez tour i saw last year in august

walk the line: setlist for ehypen's 2025 tour that i'm gonna see in august!

based on a song:

it's like a polaroid love: songs that give me the same vibses as polaroid love by enhypen.

just the two of us...moonstruck: songs that have the same vibes as moonstruck by enhypen (which might be my fav enhypen song ever)

genre/misc:

glitter pen pop: really cutesy and girly girl group songs

ho anthems (kpops version): self explanatory title.

k-iconic: kpop songs that i consider iconic.

k-latin: a collection of kpop songs that have some sort of latin influence, whether that be in beat or lyrics

k-noise music: songs that sound like either i'm on acid or the idols were on acid when they made it. it just sounds weird, but good.

(k)POP: general kpop songs from groups/soloists that i (mostly) dont already have seperate playlists for. OH, and the songs are very pop-sounding for the most part.

k-throwbacks: any kpop songs from before 2018. (1st - 3rd gen)

k-spooky (not szn): kpop songs that sound spooky

(k)r&b: songs that are more r&b than pop

(k)rap: rap heavy kpop songs

k-food: kpop songs that mention food or eating. either in the title or the lyrics.

k-ballads: korean ballads, simple as that.

k-animals: all kpop songs that i could think of that mention animals or reference being animal-like in some way. through extensive research i found that most kpop idols want to be wolves for some reason.

smcu: stands for SM Cinematic Universe. it's basically a bunch of collab songs from random idols in SM. it's basically just a home for NCT units that didn't make the cut for their own playlist. also has superm and GOT the beat.

summer bops: kpop songs with summer vibes.

global groups:

*to me if u got trained under the kpop system and ur under a kpop label ur basically kpop idc what language u sing in, hence why i'm putting them here.

XG!: all my fav songs from my girls so far

chill lo-fi/trap/rnb songs (rlly just based off songs that sound like joji) that i feel can kinda just be played in the background and u can just float off to another plane of existence

songs to drive to in the middle of the night with no destination

this technically isn't even hater hours, this is justified hate to me. cuz when i catch you blackpink.... and to think i was jamming to jennie, rosé, and lalisa not a few days ago. 💀 if u don't know what i'm talking about, lucky you. i am speaking on the situation of these 3 young women saying the n-word like multiple times on camera 💀. and then if that wasn't enough, my (former) girls kiss of life getting on their zoom and having a modern day black face party 💀. i'm sick to my stomach rn cuz what is going on? is it just a requirement to be ridiculous when ur a k-pop idol? lord, how far we have fallen from grace. 😔

now tell me why the 3 girls who speak english are the ones who said the n-word. i'm looking specifically at jennie and rosé with the STRONGEST side eye in the blackpink situation because u from english speaking countries so they know they was wrong. lalisa barely knew english at the time but imma still look at her crazy bcs jisoo don't know no english and she is resting easy tonight cuz she didn't say the n-word (on camera at least, idk what she do in her spare time). and i don't want nobody in my comments giving me these goofy excuses like "aw they were so young, they didn't know" or "they didn't understand they're from korea." u can get off my page with that rn. those excuses don't work anymore in the 21st century bro. especially bcs 2/4 of the ppl in question are from australia and new zealand and i'm pretty sure they know what it means.

now onto these jokers. i was rooting for you, we were all rooting for you, and how DARE YOU? i should've expected this from them tho, that's my fault for putting my trust into them 😔, never again tho. and u know who i'm most mad at? julie. u r too grown and too american to not know what u were doing. ur seriously throwing black cultural appropriation party at 25 years old?? r u serious rn? and ya know what, belle too. u r too american to be caught doing smth this silly. and the worst part is that they weren't even embarassed. they literally went live to do this 😭. haneul...u were my girl. igloo was my song. i feel so betrayed rn. as for the other one (can't even remember her name rn) i had no expectations but she look like the type to do this so💀

and while i'm talking about this, why is NO ONE ELSE talking about it? i've seen little to no one talking about these two things. like what is going on?

all i got to say in the end, is this: if le sserafim, stray kids (specifically felix cuz i already know about han💀), enhypen (specifically sunoo cuz i already know about heeseung😔), or ateez EVER get caught doing something foolish, i'm quitting k-pop bro. cuz this is getting offensive bruh.
