My Snatcher playlists! (not cannon snatcher, just my own interpretation of him)
Okay so uh…Snatcher’s music taste depends on his current mood/emotions. Although my interpretation of Snatcher is an INTJ, he’s still very emotionally driven. So I’ve sorted the songs I associate with him into separate categories so it doesn’t sound like constant emotional whiplash 😅
So essentially, “pick your poison” on which to listen to. Because there’s SO MANY SONGS I don’t think you can listen to all of them in one sitting ;)
Songs that make him feel confident + like a masculine smooth criminal lol (this is his default music taste btw):
-oh it’s you
-Feeling Good (Michael bublé version)
-Death of a Bachelor (Michael bublé)
-Dancing in the Moonlight *both versions work with him
-Cupid Shuffle *FOR WHATEVER REASON LOL
-Still feel alive (half alive)
-So caught up (the teskey brothers)
-Let’s groove tonight TikTok version
-My girl (The Temptations)
-Haunted heart (Christina Aguilera)
-k.k cruisin’ jazz band version
-5pm animal crossing new horizons
- still alive big band version (Portal song)
- Up to no good (the Hoosiers)
- Bad (Royal Deluxe)
- moves like jagger bardcore version *because my asexual brain prohibits him from listening to the original lol
- Rock it for me (Caravan Palace)
- Hip shop (deltarune)
- Treasure (Bruno Mars)
- Handclap (Fitz and the Tantrums)
His “f*** you Vanessa” playlist + edgy playlist :
-I want to break free (Queen)
-50 ways to say goodbye
-forget you (ceelo green)
-cold (maroon 5)
-don’t show up (dua lipa)
-can’t take me (bryan adams/the movie “spirit”)
-too close (Alex Clare)
-love song (Sara bareilles)
-Ghost (mystery skulls)
-War (Zach Callison)
-The Fine Print (The Stupendim)
-Bang! (AJR)
-Maneater (Daryl Hall & John Oates)
-Wonderland (Carvan Palace)
-cradles (sub urban)
-mind games (sickick)
-Kill the lights (set it off)
-everything black (Unlike Pluto)
-idfc (blackbear)
His depression playlist (WARNING…depressing is not an over exaggeration. Some of these songs dive into dark topics and others are very emotionally charged. Please avoid listing to these if you aren’t in the right mental space to handle songs discussing death and toxic/failed relationships):
-Evil Queen (Snøw)
-Buy the Stars (Marina and the Diamonds)
-Sadness runs though him (The Hoosiers)
-Fix it to break it (Clinton Kane)
-The Grave (Kate Vogel)
-The spookiest depression bop u’ve EVER heard (Rory Webley)
-Viva La Vida
-Rose colored boy (Paramore)
-Hard Times (Paramore)
-I was a fool (Tegan & Sara)
-Loose you to love me (Selena Gomez)
-I was human (English cover by Rachie)
-silhouette (owl city)
-hurt (Johnny Cash cover)
-happy pills
-Waves (mr probz) *NOT THE REMIX VERSION*
-Wake up (Eden)
-When you love someone (James TW)
-Wash The Hurt Away (Michael J Woodard)
-come and go (juice wrld)
-autoclave (the mountain goats)
Songs that don’t deeply resonate with him, but he likes listening to them anyway:
- Fast Car (Loving Caliber)
- ghost boy (Jacob Tillberg)
- Sad Creeper (Black Gryph0n & Baasik)
- Pompeii
- Renegades
- Mr Jones
- Goodbye mr a
- one of these nights (the eagles)
- Bittersweet (Big Head Todd)
-One Little Slip (Barenaked Ladies)
- Pain and misery (tesky brothers)
- Paris in the rain
- Honey lavender
- Human (Rag’n’Bone Man)
- Waterfall (Undertale)
- Credits song for my death (vivivivivi)
- No brainer (DJ Khalid)
- R&B smooth instrumental “Drunk Dial”
- Touch tone telephone (Lemon Demon)
- Cabinet Man (Lemon Demon)
- Harder, better, faster, stronger (Daft Punk)
- Starlight Brigade (TWRP)

What kind of music do you think Keefe and Fitz listen to? (It’s for a fic hehe)
Okay I have a few ideas so feel free to pick and choose at your leisure or to ignore every single thing I say because like. Who knows!
Keefe: Those kinds of songs where it's like a voice half talking and half-singing, sometimes rough and gravelly yet there's a certain kind of music to it. A few songs that pop into mind are Loved by FEiN; Kiss Me, Son of God by They Might Be Giants; and Alien Blues by Vundabar. He wouldn't necessarily listen to those exact songs, but they have that kinda vibe I'm trying to explain.
This I think would also be combined with a host of slow and provocative songs, ones that he can cry to. They're quiet and thoughtful and reflective. Songs like Juliet by Cavetown, Must Have Been The Wind by Alec Benjamin, Home by Edith Whiskers, and Runaway by Aurora. Perhaps with a sprinkle of songs like Don't Throw Out My Legos by AJR and i wanna love somebody by We Three. Those songs that just have something more to them, a sort of longing. I think he'd find himself listening to those from time to time. So either kinda funky in terms of the musicality or something somber, that's my proposal.
Fitz: He both feels like the kind of person to listen to classical music unironically and to love more upbeat smooth songs. Lyrics and prose that flow. The first song that came to mind was fever dream by mxmtoon, but I Choose by Alessia Cara and Dare by Daya also feel appropriate. They're got that positivity while not being an over the top poppy and bright song. Can't explain it but Pompeii by Bastille also feels like Fitz. Maybe Ophelia by The Lumineers as well. Listen I'm just going off of energy here you gotta trust me on this I am exposing my music for you rn.
I also think he'd be an avid enjoyer of wordless music while he works, whether that's the classical like I said or other wordless music. I personally listen to this playlist from time to time and it's got a more positive sound to it that you might find something you like in. Okay and you know those songs that technically have lyrics but they way they're sang they don't stand out a lot so it's easy for them to fade into the background and feel like wordless music? Songs like Haven by Novo Amor, Carry You by Novo Amor, and Teenage Headache Dream by Mura Masa, Ellie Rowsell, and Wolf Alice? Those also have Fitz vibes. So essentially positive songs with a smooth sound or gentle background music (or classical), that's what I'm getting from him.
I have no idea if any of this is helpful, but maybe it is! Feel free to use or ignore any of the things I have said. The songs I mentioned are almost all based on the vibe of the song, so you can use those or use them as a starting point to get an idea of what I'm talking about.
I hope your fic goes well!!

✧・゚(   ariadne + ester exposito + cis female) 𝒎𝒂𝒎𝒎𝒂𝒎𝒊𝒂 !!  have you seen (   ágata saravia  ) around ? (   she  ) has been in kaos for (   three weeks ). the (   twenty-one year old ) is a (   socialite   ) from (   madrid, spain ). people say they can be (   uptight   ) but maybe that’s not too bad ‘cause they can also be (   gentle  ). whenever i think of them, i can’t help but think of (   nude lipstick, flashing camera lights, and the smell of vanilla   ).  ・゚✧  (  penned by b, 21+, est, she/her  ).
—> BASICS:
Full name: Ágata Maria Saravia y Trastámara
Birthday: July 31
Zodiac Sign: Leo
Age: 21
Gender: Cis-female (she/her)
Sexuality: Bisexual
Place of birth: Madrid, Spain 🇪🇸
Occupation: Socialite
Positive Traits: Kindhearted, adaptable, generous, articulate, & dedicated.
Negative Traits: Spoiled, sheltered, insecure, naive, & vain.
Archetype: The Marionette
—> BIO:
Agata is my soft duchess in training. She was born and raised in Madrid, Spain to Rodolfo Saravia, the fourth born son of Spanish Duchess Maria-Pilar Saravia (think Cayetana Fitz-James) and his former flamenco dancer wife, Lisel. As the Duchess of Saravia’s only granddaughter in a sea of sons and grandsons, she was favored by the woman from day one. So much, that she spent more time with her grandmother than her own parents growing up. The matriarch had always been desperate for a daughter, but earned herself five sons instead. Thus, Ágata’s birth was like an answered prayer. Under her grandmother’s tutelage, she was essentially groomed to take over her place in both title and business. Her grandmother has been slowly disowning other members of the family, ripping their titles away one by one to assure that Ágata is the one to inherit it all. Much of this though is justified. While the Saravia’s are renowned for using their amassed wealth for philanthropy, they are also notorious for their scandals, which include (but are not limited to): extortion, land grabbing, intellectual theft, infidelity, and tax evasion. Her own parents have been accused of the latter two respectively. Out of everyone in her family, only Ágata and her grandmother are free of controversy. Hence, why so much focus and pressure has been put on poor Ágata, as her grandmother hopes for her to be the saving grace of the family name.
The girl was put in the best schools, rubbed elbows with only the most prestigious of peers, was sheltered to bits, and grew up to be one of the most prominent socialites and philanthropist in the country. She has been doted on so much her entire life that she barely knows how to fend for herself. Everything in her life has been planned out and decided for her by others. While she didn’t mind the attention or expectations much as a child, she found herself more and more discontent with her life as she grew up. She’d never admit it to her family, but all she really wants is to live a simple quiet life away from the limelight. Still, her dutiful nature won’t allow her to fail the expectations put on her. Due to this, she’s always been fairly obedient, and played the part she was meant to fill well. That’s really all she sees he role in life as now; a part to play to please others. Truly, she’s the Saravia family’s pretty marionette. The girl was sent to Kaos in order to serve as the face of some philanthropy work being done in the area in the family’s name. She was sent in the company of a very small team, which means that she’s practically fending for herself for the most part for the first time in her life.
—> PERSONALITY:
Ágata is a kindhearted and gentle girl. She is the epitome of soft most of the time, and really only hardens when she feels like she or those she cares about most are threatened. In such circumstances, she can become uncharacteristically nasty and will stop at nothing to even the score. Otherwise, she wouldn’t hurt a fly. A hopeless romantic, she’s in love with the idea of love. Although she likely wouldn’t admit it, sweet words and a charming smile are pretty much all it takes to make her swoon. Even so, she doesn’t believe that she’ll ever truly find real love under her circumstances. She just finds it difficult to differentiate those who are sincere from the opportunists. She is the kind of girl that is easily trusting and insists on seeing the best in people, which is one of her greatest faults. No matter how many times they disappoint her, she has a hard time giving up on people once she cares about them enough. Her fierce loyalty and naivety makes her quite impresionable. Still, she isn’t as susceptible to manipulation as one might think. Ágata is very strategic and merely prefers to play along and make it seem as if she has fallen for someone’s trap, only to be doing it all to remain in their good graces or her own personal gain. All in all, we’ll just call her a mess in training.
—> FUN FACTS:
Her favorite color is rose red
She wanted to be a teacher before the idea was shutdown by her grandmother
She’s intrigued by complex people/situations
Hates the sound of thunder and storms
Expert knitter
Thinks of herself as a mom-friend, is actually more of a grandma
Most likely to be sweet to your face only to talk shit behind your back
Would probably be getting married off by now if it weren’t for her family’s scandals
She was named after Nairobi from La Casa De Papel’s real name because YES

5 Tips for the Most Amazing Bridal Suite Ever
With all of the craziness surrounding your Big Day, it’s easy to let a few things fall to the wayside. It happens. But forgetting to prep your bridal suite? Sooo not an option. So today we’re teaming up with our friends over at Wayfair Registry for a list of tips + tricks on making your morning-of the best (and most photogenic) experience possible. Scroll below to take your bridal suite to the next level.
Light, light, light… and more light!
Being trapped in a small, dingy room isn’t exactly the ideal way to spend the morning of your wedding, and let’s be honest… it’s not a great option for your photographer, either. Which is why we say the more light, the better – which means picking a locale that has a lot of space AND windows. Trust us on this one… the natural light shining in will show off all of the beautiful deets, including those totally chic champagne glasses you picked up from Wayfair Registry, perfect for mimosas with your besties.
Keep Those Must-Haves Within Reach
Those marathon pampering sessions can be tiring, so staying hydrated and nutrient-filled is a definite YES. We recommend stocking up on all of the essentials from Wayfair Registry (water pitchers, cheese boards, serving trays, ice buckets) to keep the tasty treats + liquids flowing AND displayed in a way that will look oh-so-cute for all of those “getting ready” photos. Plus, don’t forget the little details, like earrings, perfume, that perfect shade of lip gloss and sandals for dancing the night away post-nuptials. You’ll most definitely want them all to make an appearance in your bridal suite photo ops. Trust us.
Find the Perfect Spot for Your Dress
You’re wedding day is all about you + your love, but that dress of your dreams? It deserves a moment. Start by finding a sweet space in your bridal suite where your masterpiece can shine, then sit back and watch your photog capture all of the magic. Oh, and don’t forget to de-clutter your space as much as possible, i.e., clearing out those coffee mugs, phone books and maps of your venue sitting in the background. Don’t make your gown compete for the limelight… it needs a space all its own.
Don’t Forget the Pretty, Pretty Details
Your wedding day will be, hands down, the most romantic + pretty day of your life, and it all starts in the bridal suite. So our advice? Make sure it’s as gorgeous as it can possibly be. Show off those bouquets (or order a special floral arrangement) in a beautiful vase from Wayfair Registry, set up some snacks on a beautiful serving tray and lounge around with your besties in the prettiest robes possible. You’ll be so happy you glammed up the occasion when you are perusing through those photo albums.
Have fun!
The stress of planning is finally over, and now that it’s officially the day you say “I do” to the one you love, it’s time to kick back in that comfy slippers from Wayfair Registry and r-e-l-a-x. Which means tall glasses of champagne, your wedding day playlist streaming from that awesome docking station and a whole lot of laughter with your best friends. Because the best accessory for your bridal suite? Your smile.

My Top 132 Songs Of 2016
Previously: 2015, 2014, 2013, 2012, 2011
Tumblr media
Haven’t started writing this yet, but after peaking at 73 songs in 2013, then dipping to 67 and 71 the last two years, it is unbelievable we hit 132 (blame Spotify’s easy ability to save music and create playlists).
I debated skipping around, but nahhh, let’s get it.
As always, the criteria/info:
This is a list of songs I personally like, not ones I’m saying are the “best” from the year; more subjective than objective
No artist is featured more than once
If it comes down to choosing between two songs for an artist, I try to give more weight to a single or featured track; it’s not the ultimate factor, but it typically makes sharing the music easier
Speaking of... each song on the list is linked in the title if you wanna check out some for yourself
BOBBY VS. THE SONGS, FID
Tumblr media
132) Kendrick Lamar - “untitled 07 | levitate”
Yeah, not gonna do the thing everyone else is doing where we pretend Kendrick is making amazing music with 2016′s throwaway release. I had to trudge through so much weird-and-not-fun stuff on “Butterfly” last year; it’s time to be done with it. Kendrick is obviously a top flight MC and could end up as an all-time great, but, like, come on -- this is from an EP of b-sides, it’s (probably) the best song... and it’s still not that memorable. How this record is ended up on so many year end best of lists mystified me.
131) Young Thug - “Drippin'”
Thugger spazzin’ around.
130) 2 Chainz f/ Lil Wayne - “Gotta Lotta”
Eh, this song’s aight; beat good, kinda sticks with you sometimes. Funny it should be listed as “2 Chainz & Lil Wayne” -- peep the very creative album art -- yet ended up as a 2 Chainz solo feature (on technicality alone) due to Weezy’s ongoing label issues. These two play off each other well.
129) Real Friends - “Mokena”
This song is good, but it’s... a little too angst-y at points.
128) Iggy Pop - “American Valhalla”
The best compliment I can give this song is it sounds unlike anything I’ve ever heard. Not a fun listen every time, but if you consciously immerse, it can definitely work.
127) The Avett Brothers - “Ain't No Man”
Good mom song; feels like fun. passed the torch with this one.
126) Paul Simon - “Horace And Pete”
Louis C.K. got Simon to write a theme song for his dramedy “Horace and Pete”, and the diminutive one came through in spades. I sometimes like to shoehorn in the f-word when singing along to help break up some of the seriousness. But yeah, this feels like a ‘60s classic even though it’s essentially brand new.
125) Frank Ocean - “Nikes”
The A.V. Club summed up my opinion of the Frank Ocean record with one swift line: “On first listen, Blonde feels like a Cracker Jack box with no toy in it.”
Amen.
Don’t get it twisted: I love Frank, still believe in Frank, and of course consider “channel ORANGE” to (objectively) be one of the greatest albums of this generation, but “Blonde”? It didn’t connect. Somewhat reluctantly, I picked this song for the list because it was the first one I heard, and it stands as a symbol of the initial hope which faded over a few listens. But when Ocean breaks in after all the high pitched singing, it does feel like a moment.
Also, this line will always stick: “RIP Pimp C / RIP Trayvon, that n**** look just like me”.
124) DJ Khaled f/ Jay-Z & Future - “I Got The Keys”
DJ Khaled is a talentless jackass, annoyingly ad libbing his way into our brains. Unfortunately, my personal favorite artist chooses to make listenable songs with him. Alas, No. 124. Jay slaying with “My wife Beyoncé, I brag different”. Future... being Future.
123) Slim Thug - “King”
The always underrated Slim Thug, hangin’ out and tellin’ you about his life. Also lifting weights. Minus points for using the Pimp C sample Jigga used in “FuckWithMeYouKnowIGotIt” only three years ago.
122) American Football - “Give Me The Gun”
This band will never hit for me as much as it does with cool/laid back guitar people, but I enjoyed this tune. And I wish my friend Luke were here to listen with me.
121) Craig Finn - “Screenwriters School”
Craig Finn, as slow and chill as you’ll ever hear him.
120) Mikey Erg - “1001 Smashed Motel Rooms”
Solid verses, big chorus, and you can almost, like, tell he’s bald by the voice (not an insult).
119) Cassadee Pope - “Summer”
The former Hey Monday singer goes in on the strongest season.
118) The Cool Kids - “Connect 4″
It’s very difficult to write about The Cool Kids without using the word “cool”, but man, these guys have such a great interplay. It’s not two separate dudes taking turns; it’s a glorious intertwine with true chemistry.
117) Third Eye Blind - “Cop vs. Phone Girl"
This is our first song I’d call an imperative listen. I say this because you need you to hear Stephan Jenkins sing “Why's it so hard to say ‘Black Lives Matter’? / Doesn't mean that you're anti-white / Take it from me, I'm super fucking white”.
He remains bulletproof.
116) Wakrat - “Sober Addiction”
I was positive this song was a jam after one listen, but I’ve listened 3-4 times since, and it’s gotten progressively worse each time. If that’s not enough of a hook, the singer is the Rage Against The Machine bassist.
Tumblr media
115) Owl Meet Rabbit - “This Side Of The Nut House”
A Christmas song with a “National Lampoon” reference.
114) YG f/ Drake & Kamaiyah - “Why You Always Hatin?”
Still a little unclear why Drake keeps agreeing to be in YG songs. His verse references sliding into DMs.
113) Yo Gotti f/ Nicki Minaj - “Down In The DM (Remix)”
...and we also have a track titled after it. My biggest memory with this song will be feeling sick in an Uber from Chicago to Forest Park on, like, a weekday morning but still mustering the nerve to laugh at the chorus, which is egregious enough before the “bridge” of “Snapchat me that pussy, if it’s cool”. Seriously. RIP, music.
112) The Dirty Nil - “Zombie Eyed”
This rips.
111) Microwave - “Homebody”
A good song that pulls you in further when the distortion gets bigger in the chorus.
110) AJJ - “Terrifyer”
Some days, you're a member of Queen Other days, you're a Kottonmouth King Some days, you're Emilio Estevez Other days, you're Charlie Sheen
109) Band of Horses - “Casual Party”
These guys are all smooth harmonies.
108) Fitz and the Tantrums - “HandClap”
This song is pretty unoffensive, but it’s catchy enough to work.
107) Nothing - “The Dead Are Dumb”
“The Dead Are Dumb” -or- if the “Twin Peaks” theme actually went somewhere.
106) Car Seat Headrest - “Unforgiving Girl (She's Not An)”
This band kinda reminds me of The Strokes; just a liiiiiitle less New York street and a tad more indie.
105) Vince Staples f/ Kilo Kish - “Loco”
Vince got into the news this year after defending the mom who had an extreme distaste for his lyrics in 2015′s “Norf Norf”. Let’s just say she also would not enjoy this one. His interplay with Kilo is on point.
104) GTA f/ Vince Staples - “Little Bit of This”
‘ey, it’s Vince again, and this one is stronger; somehow topping the high energy of “Loco” with another level of fire-spitting.
103) The Living End - “Monkey”
The Aussies broke a 13 year album hiatus with 2016′s “Shift”, and “Monkey”, one of the lead singles, did not disappoint. There will always be a place for songwriting like this.
102) Vic Mensa - “16 Shots”
This song is so raw and street and real. Sometimes you hear something, and it just cuts like a knife. I’m talking a “Straight Outta Compton” level here. Mensa has thoughts on police brutality in Chicago, and he ain’t holding back. He played this live on Kimmel, and his solemn-yet-wired energy could not be ignored.
Tumblr media
101) Boyd & The Stahfools - “Summerly”
Some might say BATS sold out with this very commercial ode to Pollyanna’s raspberry wheat ale, but when you consume as much of it as those boys do, I say it’s legit art.
100) Macklemore & RL f/ J. Woods - “White Privelege II”
This is kinda like the Third Eye Blind message on Black Lives Matter, only the exact opposite. It’s... quite heavy handed, and while I like that from Macklemore, I realize a lot do not. All I can say in his defense is, like, man, it really seems like this dude is trying, and he certainly attempted to involve the right people. If that’s not good enough for you, I get it.
(Plus, he kinda digs on Iggy; throwing y’all a bone, just take it.)
99) Conor Oberst - “A Little Uncanny”
Oberst sounds a ton like Bob Dylan in this one, but he also sounds a ton like Oberst. It’s kinda like two massive folk tidal waves crashing into each other.
98) Cymbals Eat Guitars - “Have A Heart”
CEG -- despite a terrific name -- have always made music that felt obtuse, but this is the first song that felt ready-made to, like, give normal people a window to check out the band.
97) Green Day- “Bang Bang”
Everyone wants to over-analyze Green Day. But if you don’t do that, you’ll enjoy this as a fast and easy pop-punk song. It plays at my gym sometimes, and I always kinda assume people are annoyed by it. To quote Josh from “Heavyweights”, this pleases me.
96) James Vincent McMorrow - “Get Low”
Chill/cool.
95) The Flatliners - “Hang My Head”
This won’t end up in their all-time Top 5, but it’s a good song, and it was nice to hear from this band in 2016.
94) AFI - “Snow Cats”
This would sound right at home as a mid-tempo number on “Sing The Sorrow”.
93) Jay Electronica - “#TBE The Curse Of Mayweather”
Oof, what a shitty title. So, this is Jay Elect’s “blast back” at Kendrick Lamar after K-Dot slaughtered the rap game (and shit, maybe rap itself) in 2013′s “Control”. But here’s the thing... “Control” was “Control”. No one is topping “Control”. No one is successfully going at “Control”. That’s in its own stratosphere. Was it fun to see the enigmatic MC try? Sure. Did it make any type of impact? Eh, no. But I did enjoy the fake Kendrick voice.
Tumblr media
92) The Dyes - “Loudmouth”
Out of every song so far, I’ve found this the toughest to write about. My favorite part is probably the way the guitar and bass play off each other, but my second favorite part has to be how sinister and swaggery it sounds.
91) Big Sean - “Get My Shit Together”
Maaaan, I missed Big Sean in 2016 after an extremely fruitful 2015. The few times he did surface -- on other people’s songs -- he stayed in form, so you’ll see more of him as this goes.
It feel like young Ray Allen with the white twins
90) Emeli Sandé f/ Jay Electronica & Áine Zion - “Garden”
Serene, with a fitting Jay Elect verse.
89) Yumi Zouma - “Haji Awali”
Chiller than a Coleman.
88) Jimmy Eat World - “Get Right”
We’ve talked about this before, but JEW typically have sunny day feel good songs, or nighttime darkness-type songs; this one’s the latter.
87) Into It. Over It. - “No EQ”
Sooooo good; melodic and percussive and soulful. It tugs at your heart just the right amount.
86) The Front Bottoms - “Joanie”
This really, really sounds like a Front Bottoms song, which I mostly mean as a compliment but also... am slightly worried about as it pertains to future material.
85) The Lumineers - “Ophelia”
Would I like to steal this song and give it to a girl and say I wrote it to mega impress her? Uh, duh. Piano for dayz.
84) Viola Beach - “Swings & Waterslides”
Kinda a lighter version of the Arctic Monkeys; mostly the singing... but in a big way.
83) The Game - “92 Bars”
It’s sposta be a Meek Mill diss, but it’s basically Game freestyling about a buncha stuff over a workable beat. Some real solid lines, too. My favorites:
- “I can kill you in four bars, that's a Kit Kat”
- “Let me tell you who suck, like banana Now and Laters” (haha)
- “Give me Left Eye back, take Fetty Wap and the Raiders”
- “Gum by them Yeezys, I'm the 6'5" Eazy” (MVP bar?)
- “This the Golden State and my shooters ain't on no hoop shit” (coooold)
82) OMI - “Hula Hoop”
I’mma give the write up here to my girl Alyssa Pawola, via her husband, Jeff Pawola (who watched the video after she was told the song reminded me of him):
She agreed with you!
She says it's because the singer dances similar to me and is a little goofy (compliment?), whereas all the girls around him are really good dancers (thus, her).
81) Joey Purp f/ Chance The Rapper - “Girls @”
If you’re not all-in on this song by the seven or eight second mark, then you can probably pass. HOWEVA, Chance and his 3 hat appear later on, so we call that incentive, young Bucky.
80) Vinnie Caruana - “I Don’t Believe You”
The feels like a last-song-on-the-record kinda track.
/looks up if it was the last song on the record
...8 of 10!
(Close enough.)
79) No Lenox - “Leave”
This song is heart and blood, with a rare use of “fucking” from Chris Trott.
Tumblr media
78) JANK - “Versace Summer”
JANK is interesting. All of their artwork and motif make them seem like stoners (and maybe they are), but the music itself is so technical and synced. Like, you know they’re trying and very capable. So as weird as seeing “Versace” next to “JANK” might look, maybe it’s this high end brand that truly does fit their sound over, say, Faygo. But yeah, by the time this song is done, even though they’ve played the chorus a handful of times, you probably wouldn’t mind a handful more.
77) White Lung - “Dead Weight”
This band is just the coolest shit. They always go so, so hard, but this time, there’s a guitar playing mega bad ass leads to help even things out. I would believe you if you told me the guitar was also shooting lasers.
76) Descendents - “Without Love”
Like The Living End, the Descendents have also been out of the ‘releasing new records’ game for over a decade. And as jokey of a band as they’ve been in the past, this song has some of the same earnestness and vulnerability we heard on 2004′s “Cool To Be You”.
75) Andrew Bird - “Roma Fade”
For sure a candidate for coolest song title of 2016.
74) LVL UP - “Hidden Driver”
This is too indie for its own good.
73) A$AP Ferg f/ Big Sean - “World Is Mine”
Mostly included for Sean. Sorry, Ferg -- but you did give him the hook and a verse.
72) AM Taxi - “Enough To Feel Like Enough”
Like The Front Bottoms song from earlier, this AM Taxi song is very AM Taxi. But I ain’t ever worried about AM Taxi.
71) Rozwell Kid - “Baby’s First Sideburns”
Not sure I’ve ever heard a weak song by this band.
70) PARTYNEXTDOOR f/ Drake - “Come And See Me”
If you wanted to upset your love interest in 2016, hitting him or her with the “I hear you talkin' 'bout ‘we’ a lot, oh, you speak French now?” line was probably a good place to start.
69) Tancred - “Bed Case”
Kinda ‘90s, right? Nice.
68) Thrice - “Blood On The Sand”
Moderate take alert: I purport the Thrice singer sounds like Dave Grohl in this song, particularly during the chorus. Come at me with your agrees or disagrees.
Tumblr media
67) MakeWar - “Ode”
The dude on this band’s album cover always reminds me of Rafa Nadal, which is weird, as I’d argue he looks -20% like Rafa Nadal. This song has a downcast energy. I think I wanna see these dudes live.
66) PKEW PKEW PKEW - “Asshole Pandemic”
Party punk, wooooo. You will not find a more circular 2016 lyric than “Why’s this fuckin’ dick gotta be such a cock?”
65) Adam Friedman f/ Mike Posner - “Lemonade”
blue eyes >>> brown eyes, Adam.
64) Matt and Kim - “Let’s Run Away”
As always-always-always, Matt and Kim are having more fun than we are.
63) Ariana Grande f/ Nicki Minaj - “Side To Side”
As recently as 40 days ago, I was emaling my friends about this track with the very loaded “I’m not sure this song is good at all”.
My buddy Brian’s response will probably jar you like it jarred me:
Gotta say, I have a soft spot for this song. I think the beat is pretty banging and the subject matter is a plus. Like, we do have to acknowledge that she's walking side to side because she's been having sex with dude all night and day and now her vagina is too sore to walk like a regular person. I can dig that.
Well then.
62) With You. f/ Vince Staples - “Ghost”
Weird music video, but definitely my favorite version of Vince that we got in 2016.
61) Fifth Harmony f/ Ty Dolla $ign - “Work From Home”
I was listening to this song with my girlfriend the other day, and I said something like “This song could really use a rap cameo”. Enter: the very forgettable Ty Dolla $ign. Still, a fun, sexty song. Also, I believe this is our first -- and only? -- song to have over one billion YouTube views (!!!).
60) Masked Intruder - “If Only”
This made it over other MI candidates due to the Winnie Cooper reference.
59) Fat Joe, Remy Ma, Jay-Z f/ French Montana & Infared - “All The Way Up (Remix)”
An easy chorus for sports teams to co-opt, as well as a “fuck off me” Jay verse. He bucks “Lemonade”, ups his products for the infinite time, and drops the mic after:
The OG's say, "Hov, how high is high enough?" I said "'till we eye and eye with the higher ups" Until we let 'em know, we ain't those n****s Until our baby's showered in gold, n**** Blue looking like Pac in the tub David LaChapelle levels of not giving a fuck Prince left his masters where they safe and sound We never gonna let the elevator take him down
Man.
Worry not, cockroach French is around to muck things up. It’s salvaged by a real dope Remy Ma verse, though.
58) Al Scorch - “Everybody Out”
The perfect soundtrack for escaping a busted speakeasy.
57) Tegan and Sara - “Dying To Know”
This song makes the list because the “Boyfriend” chorus was lazy as hell; it was like the “Closer” chorus, version 2.0. Conversely, “Dying To Know” has real emotion and a big, legit chorus.
56) Bloc Party - “The Good News”
A song I fear no one will like but me... but hey, my list.
55) New Lenox - “It’s Its Own Thing”
This is a song I wrote (and drummed on) about how winter sucks. It’s also about Chicago, being alone, finding someone, and using Banner Pilot to get through tough, frozen times. Shout out to Dave Rokos for singing the majority of the leads and Chris Trott for producing.
Tumblr media
54) Julien Baker - “Photobooth”
I became enamored with the voice and talent of 21-year-old phenom Julien Baker throughout 2016, and though she released her debut album in 2015 (ALL TRACKS DISQUALIFIED, CHICA), she did drop this Death Cab cover for The A.V. Club this year, so I found a way to get her in the door. Now that we’re all here, I’ll give the floor to Deadspin’s Tom Ley:
What I did not expect was to like this version of the song so much that I now become visibly disgusted when I try to go back and listen to the original. Like all the good, thoughtful teens of my era, I spent a lot of time listening to Death Cab in my car, and I used to nod along pleasantly when “Photobooth” came on. But now I’m just angry I ever wasted any time listening to a lesser version of the song. In my opinion, Death Cab should just turn their entire catalog over to Julien Baker and be done with it.
Ironically, I will be seeing Baker open up for Death Cab singer Ben Gibbard later this January.
53) Desiigner - “Panda”
This is a bad song... but it’s incredibly listenable (for about 30 seconds, only it keeps going for a normal amount of time). It got upped on Kanye’s album, which likely sparked public interest in this mumble rap disaster. Literally the best thing you can say is it’s a Future rip off -- and he’s not all that great to begin with.
/sadly looks up YouTube view total
190 million; Fifth Harmony is like “pshhhh”.
Yet, “Panda” somehow endures. It feels fresh, saying “panda” repatedly never seems to tire, and it burned down the dance floor at Brian Pawola’s wedding this summer; old and young alike wanted to be pandas.
Now is also probably a good time to disclose my Halloween costume...
Tumblr media
52) Cloud Nothings - “Modern Act”
Me, blogging about my excitement for the new Cloud Nothings album that drops in three weeks.
Tumblr media
51) A Tribe Called Quest f/ André 3000 - “Kids” (no link)
Welcome back.
50) Run The Jewels - “Talk To Me”
Haven’t listened to RTJ3, but it’s only been out for, like, 10 days. Still, this song is as reliably dope as they’ve always been. I also felt compelled to include ATCQ and RTJ in these spots to ensure they were not above “Panda”.
Brave men didn't die face down in the Vietnam muck so I could not style on you
49) Kevin Devine - “No History”
My aforementioned buddy Dave Rokos likes this song because of its big chorus, and I’d also like to use it as a selling point.
48) Kings Of Leon - “Reverend”
For as big as Kings Of Leon are, I haven’t really heard this song anywhere.
47) Rae Sremmurd f/ Gucci Mane - “Black Beatles”
I always thought Rae Sremmurd were kinda meh (at best) and Gucci Mane was an idiot’s idiot (at absolute best), but this song’s a banger -- and this conclusion was reached prior to it going viral with the Mannequin Challenges. Speaking of... my 2016 Black Wednesday:
A video posted by Bobby L (@bobbystompy) on Nov 23, 2016 at 7:15pm PST
46) Grimes - “Kill V. Maim”
This song is straight out of a video game or action movie. Like, get ready to fight a boss or something.
45) Dave Hause - “With You”
Heartfelt ballad that feels sprawled out across a few genres.
44) Robin Thicke f/ Nas - “Deep”
What do we get when we combine a dude with no credibility and feature a dude with tons of credibility? A sneaky sizzling collab. And if you still got beef, remember: it ain’t that deep.
43) Against Me! - “Rebecca”
A lot of people have had this AM! song on their year end lists, and I wasn’t seeing it, but after a few extra spins, it became pretty clear this was thee highlight from the album. It’s got this kinetic energy, spinning out of control while somehow maintaining perfect balance.
42) Restorations - “See”
Restorations make spectrum songs; ones you listen to while the world moves in slow motion at an airport reunion, while time stops after a death, or stretches out on an overly contemplative Sunday evening. What I’m saying is, these dudes control the clocks.
41) Aaron West and the Roaring Twenties - “Green Like The G Train, Green Like Sea Foam”
Soupy from The Wonder Years’ solo project keeps -- PUN INTENDED -- chuggin’ along with this one. He’s singing in the same gear he always sings in, but the chorus and always trusty synced rhythms that break it in two definitely get me goin’. 
40) Titus Andronicus - “No Future”
Titus Andronicus covering Craig Finn, and they add just the right amount of anguish to the proceedings. There’s such an obvious-yet-still-clever element to the “February’s about as long as it is wide” line.
39) Rihanna - “Needed Me” (NSFW-ish video)
This song is good -- Mustard on the beat, natch -- but RiRi murdering a dude in the back of a strip club in the video might be better.
38) Jeff Rosenstock - “Festival Song”
The former Bomb the Music Industry! singer dipped his toe in a few genres throughout his 2016 album “Worry”, though I’m not sure how to describe this one; it’s kind of spastic punk with some synthy keyboards and a catchy outro, strong enough to throw two capable haymakers as the song enters its final minute. 
37) The Steve Adamyk Band f/ Colleen Green - “Carry On”
I hadn’t even heard of this band a month ago, but “Carry On” has quickly become a favorite; toe-tappin' rock.
36) The Naked And Famous - “Higher”
This band seems like they’d have -- there is no better word I’m so sorry -- epic concerts. Also, don’t miss out on the “In The Air Tonight”-sounding fills.
Tumblr media
35) Phantogram - “You Don’t Get Me High Anymore”
Brilliant drum samples, drug stuff, and a pop sensibility; you seriously could not ask for more.
34) Child Bite - “Vermin Mentality”
This song is quite harsh, and I imagine if you had individual approval ratings for all 132 of these songs, it would very easily finish in the bottom five. That said, I think it rocks, and it reminds me of the Dead Kennedys’ best scenario.
33) Joyce Manor - “Last You’ve Heard Of Me”
Sure, I reacted like a mom when I saw Barry’s new neck tattoo in the video, but the song was the redeemer. Recommended if you like the Everclear “Santa Monica” intro, marijuana makes you tired, or you’ve found love in the parking lot outside a karaoke bar.
32) Cassino - “Alabama Song”
If you did happen to listen to “Vermin Mentality”, this’ll probably be the song to get that taste out of your mouth. I love its overall laid back vibe, even if what it’s about remains unclear after a good chunk of listens.
31) Direct Hit! - “Was It The Acid?”
This one lost several punk points after the singer revealed he did not use hard drugs. But still.
30) Bayside - “Pretty Vacant”
My buddy Brian Pawola doesn’t like this song because of the teenage-y “I can’t believe this is my life, I’m pretty vacant all the time” chorus, but that’s precisely why I do. Also, apparently the album it’s off of is called “Vacancy”, haha.
29) PUP - “Familiar Patterns”
Feels weird not picking a single, but this one was always my favorite; the same percussive power, shreddy singing, and unrelenting noise we got in their debut a few years ago. Also funny: they named their 2016 album “The Dream Is Over”, which is what the PUP singer’s doctor told him after diagnosing his vocal chord ailment.
28) Tokyo Police Club - “Not My Girl”
Sometimes, I wanna tell non-punk fans TPC is what all punk rock sounds like, because even though the band has more of a pop-indie element, they do seem like the genre’s best case scenario more often than not.
27) The Falcon - “If Dave Did It”
Feels like sacrilege picking a Dave Hause fronted track for my Falcon choice. After all, this is Brendan Kelly’s group, and after an EP and two full lengths, it’s Dave’s first ever time fronting a song in the band. But this song kept standing out. It also has a small drum solo, and even though basically all drum solos are bad, Neil Hennessy’s on the kit -- so you know you’re in good hands.
26) Chance The Rapper f/ 2 Chainz & Lil Wayne - “No Problem”
Chance’s “Coloring Book” was so positive and creative and multi-faceted that it feels a little wrong to pick a song that’s more traditional rap with typical guests, but it really is the best song, you know? For whatever reason, Lil Wayne’s nonchalant verse was my favorite, with his initial bars being the highlight:
I got problems bigger than these boys My deposits, they be on steroids Lord, free the Carter, n****s need the Carter Sacrificin' everything, I feel like Jesus Carter
But sure, we can also highlight funny 2 Chainz things:
- “Inside of the Maybach look like it came out of Ikea / Run shit like diarrhea” (oh my god)
- “Aye, aye, captain / I'm high, captain / I'm so high / Me and God dappin'” (haha)
Also, if you don’t raise-and-drop your arms for the “huh! huh!” part before the beat kicks in at the beginning after “lobby”, you’re a monster.
youtube
25) David Rokos - “Pacific Time”
Falling in lust with a California girl who has the keys to bomb ass hotel room overlooking the ocean? What self-deprecating heterosexual dude isn’t signing up for this?
24) NOFX - “Six Years On Dope”
Thrash punk, with Fat Mike and Eric Melvin divvying up the vocals after arguing to start the song. Here’s the July 2016 description I emailed to the gf:
So, the lead singer has kind of a flat, annoying voice, but then there's this guitarist who mostly does yell parts and not a lot of leads, but in this song, they both basically trade off yelling, and the guitar is blaring, and it just does not relent. They've released a million records at this point, but something about it feels so fresh. Like new blood has been infused into all of them.
You will like... 0% of this.
Her response: “Hahaha. I wouldn't say that I hate this...but it's pretty close.”
23) Beach Slang - “Future Mixtape For The Art Kids”
Of all the artists on this way-too-long list, I had the hardest time picking a Beach Slang song. This is probably because all of their songs sound the same. But as a writer earlier this year said, it’s still a good song. So true. I went with Track 1 from their album “A Loud Bash of Teenage Feelings” (this is the actual title) because it has the biggest chorus:
We're not lost, we are dying in style We're not fucked, we are fucking alive I hope I never die
Every Beach Slang song also has to include “die” or “alive” in the lyrics; this one gets both. Minor gripe: that vocal distortion you hear is an effect used on every other song on the 29 minute record.
22) Kid Cudi f/ André 3000 - “By Design” (no link)
When you think too much, you’re removing what’s moving
This song could literally be in a made up language, but the diction, beat, and Caribbean stylings from Cudi and 3 Stacks would still make you wile out. The full version appears to be nowhere on the free Internet, but I highly recommend finding it.
If you’re too lazy, peep Cudi’s “Goodbye” instead. It’s a pump up track that samples 2Pac and Pink Floyd -- what could go wrong?!
21) Anderson .Paak - “Come Down”
My buddy Ceebs used this as the entrance song at his wedding; he and his wife looked so cool.
youtube
20) The Weeknd - “False Alarm”
Listen, I wanted to include “Starboy”. But after shunning “The Hills” for “Can’t Feel My Face” in 2015, I wanted to pick the weird song over the poppier one this time, OK? This music video is so violent. I also really do wonder if this song has borderline punk elements.
19) Carly Rae Jepsen - “Higher”
Just a Carly Rae “Emotion” b-side cracking the Top 20, no big deal. Seeing CRJ in Milwaukee in March was my favorite concert of 2016; so much so that I saw her in Chicago the next day and even exchanged a shirt (...cutoffs) with the merch guy I’d met already.
18) Brian Fallon - “Red Lights”
We have The Gaslight Anthem singer’s solo project here. This could definitely be a TGA song. “I only stop to tell her that I love her at the red lights” = unstoppable swoon.
17) Jay-Z - “Spiritual”
I need a drink, shrink or something I need an angelic voice to sing something
A song that should’ve had a much bigger spotlight in an incredibly tumultuous year. I remember listening to this during the Dallas shootings, my heart absolutely breaking for the country. Here is the statement Hov released with the track:
Tumblr media
16) Justin Timberlake - “CAN’T STOP THE FEELING!”
Our Song of the Summer, 2K16.
The one critique you could give is maybe it’s a little too easy, a little too low hanging fruit, but my counter would be: who said pop music has to be terribly difficult? And if you’re still folding arms during the “Can’t stop the fee-laaaaahn” falsetto part, having fun probably isn’t your bag.
15) Get Well Cards - “Is It Worth It?”
I think you’re trying to kill me, when you said you’d lick my wounds
I play drums on this jam, but it’s Dave Rokos’ songwriting that gives me all the feels. It always reminded me of a slightly more restrained “Good Things”. This song is about sleeplessness, deep contemplation, and a deteriorating relationship; you don’t know if you should do everything you can to hold on... or mercifully let it all go (”And they say time is all we have to give / And I think I’ve given you enough”... oof).
14) Resolutions - “Daily Train”
Blindly assumed this band was from Canada, but, upon further research, it looks like Germany. Hmm. The singer sounds like the Rise Against dude to me.
Tumblr media
13) Mike Posner f/ Big Sean - “Buried In Detroit (Lucas Lowe Remix)”
Hunger > Strategy
The Mike Posner comeback was one of the more delightful storylines of 2016. Though I liked “Ibiza” quite a bit, I had a softer spot for the one with his fellow Michigander. This is my favorite Big Sean performance of the year, and Posner’s verses and choruses are straight anthemic.
12) blink-182 - “Rabbit Hole”
Though we can all agree “Built This Pool” is the best song of all-time (Travis’ “Is that really it?” = completely perfect), “Rabbit Hole” was a bit more well-rounded -- and it’s Matt Skiba getting in the mix in a blink-182 song (verse two); I can’t believe we’re here.
11) Kanye West f/ Kendrick Lamar - “No More Parties In L.A.”
In honor of its number on our dear list, my Top 11 favorite bars from this banging banger of a song...
11. Kanye: “And as far as ‘Real Friends’, tell all my cousins I love 'em / Even the one that stole the laptop, you dirty motherfucker” (he’s not over it)
10. Kanye: "My psychiatrist got kids that I inspired / First song they played for me was 'bout their friend that just died” (creepy, ominous)
9. Kanye: “Hey baby, you forgot your Ray Bans / And my sheets still orange from your spray tan” (very South Naperville)
8. Kendrick: “She said she came out here to find an A-list rapper / I said baby, spin that 'round and say the alphabet backwards” (the young MC will not be slighted)
7. Kanye: "Thinking back to how I got here in the first place / Second class bitches wouldn't let me on first base" (those days are probably over, Yeezy)
6. Kanye: “Got pussy from beats I did for n****s more famous / When did I become A list? I wasn't even on a list” (those days are also probably over, Yeezy)
5. Kendrick: “Well cutie, I like your bougie booty / Come Erykah Badu me" (that’s just good game)
4. Kanye: “Every agent I know, know I hate agents / I'm too black, I'm too vocal, I'm too flagrant” (empowering)
3. Kanye: “I was uninspired since Lauryn Hill retired / And 3 Stacks, man, you preach it to the choir” (golden)
2. Kanye: "Mulholland Drive, need to put up some god damn barricades / I be paranoid every time, the pressure / The problem ain't I be drivin' / The problem is I be textin'" (we’ve all been there)
1. Kanye: “I be worried 'bout my daughter, I be worried 'bout Kim / But Saint is baby 'Ye, I ain't worried 'bout him” (and we’ll end with my favorite rap lyric of 2016)
10) Daya - “Hide Away”
It took a few listens to realize how sublime this one is. The lyrics are solid, the beat is great, and they display some real patience with how the hi-hat notes are deployed, and it really helps control the flow of urgency (Posner uses this tactic in the “Buried In Detroit [Remix]” as well).
Also, don’t sleep on its grocery store banger potential with the happier sounding and cutesy “Tell me where the good boys go” bridge.
9) Beyoncé f/ Kendrick Lamar - “Freedom” (note: link is to the live performance)
This is big.
I remember when “Lemonade” dropped, I was txting with my friend Buffalo Grove Tina (she’d heard the album and I hadn’t yet), giving her selective feedback as I was progressing through the tracks. She then sent a message that stuck with me every listen since:
Tumblr media
Hooooooly buckets, she nailed it. The Just Blaze beat should be sent to the CDC, Yoncé is breathing fire, and once you start to finally wrap your head around all of that, you get a K-Dot verse as icing on a cake that already had great cake and great icing. It’s run-through-walls time.
8) Drake - “One Dance” (note: link is to the live version)
Drake has been so consistent with his output this decade, turning every year into a "Should I pick the hip-hop song or the pop song?" debate when it comes to list-making. This time, the pop song wins (or dancehall, really).
"One Dance" is a good joint to drink, dance, or sway to. There's a reason it became his most streamed song of all-time.
7) The Hotelier - “Piano Player”
What a beautiful piece of music. The warmness I feel during the “I don’t know if I know love no more” is unmatched. Their album (”Goodness”) is one of the year’s best.
6) Culture Abuse - “Dream On”
This song is automatic pulverization. Like, about 80% of the way through, it tries to end but somehow can't. The chorus isn't ready to be done. Some have compared the singer's style to a robot, but I think it just sounds *cool*.
5) Japandroids - “Near To The Wild Heart Of Life”
She kissed me like a chorus
Skeptics might hate on this song for sounding like a retread of their sound from 2012's legendary album "Celebration Rock", and even non-skeptics may roll their eyes at the "I used to be good, but now I'm bad" line. But I shun these trigger happy notions. Enough time has passed since “CR”, and I was ready for this band to come back; beyond ready. This song gave me everything I was missing during the Japan-void.
/walks out of the room with an unflinchingly straight face
youtube
4) Pusha T f/ Jay-Z - “Drug Dealers Anonymous”
My pick for the best hip-hop track of the year. No choruses, no trade offs; it’s one long Pusha verse, then one long Jay verse -- the best rap verse of 2016, by my count. Pusha’s is galvanizing too, though. He paints pictures, conjures the Flint water crisis*, and sets up a bowling pin for the GOAT to roll one at...
Tumblr media
/deep breath
Just, like, fuck, man.
JAY-Z IS SO GOOD AT RAPPING WORDS
Shawn Corey Carter doesn’t walk, he weaves. He doesn’t blast, he shoots silenced. I’d love to use the word “ether” to describe the verse but won’t out of respect. What doesn’t it have? I don’t know. Here’s what it does have: Tomi Lahren she gone, drug dealer stuff, rich guy stuff, historical and pop culture references (I’ll defend the “Damn, Daniel” line to the death), and this piece of divinity: “Y’all think Uber’s the future, our cars been autonomous”.
Sometimes all I can do is put my head down, bite my lip, and bob when this song comes on; lucky to be alive, like always.
(* - Pusha apparently donated water to the city but wanted it nameless, rationalizing it in the song with: “And I can’t even mention what I sent or what I spent / Cause my name in 18 wheelers is evidence”)
3) Modern Baseball - “Apple Cider, I Don’t Mind”
MoBo’s “Holy Ghost” was a little uneven as an album, but I’m just happy to have singer Brendan Lukens here with us after his bout with depression, substance abuse, and suicidal thoughts. By the time he got back to the studio after rehab, he was ready to give us at least a little insight into his psyche -- and it’s desperate, scary, and beautiful. My favorite overall musical moment of 2016 is the pleading “I can’t” he hits at the 1:15 mark of this one.
Clocking in at a tick under two minutes, this song almost feels incomplete in a way that 2014′s “Rock Bottom” (2:14 itself) didn’t. It’s like Lukens wants to sprint so hard he passes out, worrying not as much about finishing the race but instead focusing on giving the audience all of himself while in the booth.
2) Pinegrove - “New Friends”
Hit me, Spin:
Pinegrove are almost radically likable, soft-spoken in a year of grandiose statements, filling a void that only existed in retrospect.
Damn straight. I hadn’t even heard of these guys at the start of the year.
This goes from indie folk to a Weezer-y outro with only a short build up, but the songwriting and lyrics are in a style all their own, really. That’s it.
1) The Menzingers - “Lookers”
When this dropped, my buddy Chris Trott emailed me what he always emails me when a new song piques our interest: “Holy good god damn this is good. This is like 'I believe in music again' good.”
Shortly after, I remember leaving work for lunch and bumping the song for the first time in a parking lot. I wrote him back: “Was staring at this brick wall while listening and the first thought that popped into my head was something like 'It feels like they are taking my soul out of my body and splattering it on that wall' (in the best way, of course).”
Nostalgic verses, massive Jersey chorus, an “On The Road” reference, and the desire to want more of these songs even after you were just given everything in a single installment.
This god damn band.

(Via: Hacker News)
I love a good tech talk. I like to watch them, I like to give them, and now that I have lots of free time on my hands, I’ve put together a list of the must-see talks for every programmer. In this list, I’ve avoided language or library specific talks and instead focused on high-level, general topics that apply to everyone:
The future of technology
User interface
Programming language design
Software engineering
Computers and learning
A career in programming
Computer gaming
Fun talks
If I missed a talk you love, leave a comment. Happy watching!
The future of technology
The Future Doesn't Have To Be Incremental by Alan Kay
When thinking about the future, you can’t do better than Alan Kay. In The Future Doesn’t Have To Be Incremental, Kay describes how Xerox PARC was able to develop so many new technologies in such a short time, including the personal computer, bitmap displays, GUI, desktop publishing, word processing, laser printing, Ethernet, and object oriented programming. The key was a culture focused on invention - that is, fundamentally new research - instead of incremental innovation. Invention requires a significantly higher investment of money, much longer time frames, and a different approach to problem solving (“wouldn’t it be ridiculous if in 30 years we didn’t have…”).
Other essential talks on the future of technology:
The Mother of All Demos by Douglas Engelbart. A demonstration of hypertext, graphics, video conferencing, the mouse, word processing, and much more - all in 1968! This is the kind of leap frog invention Kay is referring to.
The Future of Programming by Bret Victor. A brilliant talk where Bret Victor takes us back in time and reminds us that “the most dangerous thought that you can have as a creative person is to think that you know what you’re doing. Because once you think you know what you’re doing you stop looking around for other ways of doing things and you stop being able to see other ways of doing things. You become blind.”
The Computer Revolution Hasn’t Happened Yet by Alan Kay. “I made up the term object-oriented and I can tell you I didn’t have C++ in mind.”
User Interface
Inventing on Principle by Bret Victor
Bret Victor’s talk Inventing on Principle will make all of your programming languages and tools feel obsolete. He presents a new way to write code: a user interface that makes the computer do the tedious work so that you can experiment with and react to your code instead of trying to simulate it in your head. This not only makes it much easier to learn programming, it fundamentally changes how we go about solving problems.
More UI goodness:
Stop Drawing Dead Fish by Bret Victor. Using computers to bring art to life.
Media Thinking for the Unthinkable by Bret Victor. Designing a new medium for science and engineering.
Doing With Images Makes Symbols by Alan Kay. How humans learn and how to build user interfaces that support it. “The parts of the body you want to have learn don’t understand English.”
Programming language design
Simple Made Easy by Rich Hickey
Rich Hickey, the creator of Clojure, has the ability to make you see basic concepts in computer science in a whole new light. Complexity is one of these basic concepts and Simple Made Easy defines some of the best tools - the best language - to reason about it.
A few other talks to add to your playlist:
Are We There Yet? by Rich Hickey. Another foundational talk by Hickey that will force you to reconsider state, time, identity, values, and types.
Growing a Language by Guy Steele. One of the most clever presentations I’ve ever seen on programming language design. Give it about 10 minutes - the payoff is amazing.
The Science of Insecurity by Meredith Patterson. Why current systems and protocols are inherently insecure and how to fix that in the future.
Software Engineering
What We Actually Know About Software Development, and Why We Believe It's True by Greg Wilson
Greg Wilson will force you to look closely at how you make decisions in software engineering: should you use Java? Ruby? Play Framework? Rails? TDD? Agile? Code reviews? Most of your answers are probably based solely on opinions, memes, trends, and anecdotes. What We Actually Know About Software Development, and Why We Believe It’s True is an important call to change our practices and move to a world of evidence-based software engineering.
Other great talks:
Real Software Engineering by Glenn Vanderburg. Software engineering as it’s taught in universities simply doesn’t work. It doesn’t produce software systems of high quality, and it doesn’t produce them for low cost. Sometimes, even when practiced rigorously, it doesn’t produce systems at all.
Hammock Driven Development by Rich Hickey. “Most of the biggest problems in software are problems of misconception.” To solve hard problems, step away from the computer, take some time to think, and write it down.
The Language of the System by Rich Hickey. We focus extensively on the perfect programming language to build a single system, but what about languages for how multiple systems communicate with each other?
Computers and Learning
What we're learning from online education by Daphne Koller
Daphne Koller and Andrew Ng are trying to reinvent education. They created Coursera, which offers real university classes, online and for free, to anyone in the world. What we’re learning from online education talks about some of the techniques they are using to run classes of hundreds of thousands of students - including video, discussion forums, interactive UI’s, automatic grading, and peer grading - and how this experiment is giving us unprecedented insight into how humans learn.
A few other powerful talks on education:
Let’s use video to reinvent education by Salman Khan. Whereas Koller’s talk is about university classes, Khan’s talk is about online education for K-12 via the Khan Academy.
Teaching Creative Computer Science by Simon Peyton Jones. Every child should learn computer science because it teaches them a new way of thinking.
Machine Learning, A Love Story by Hilary Mason. The talks above are about teaching people; this talk is about teaching computers.
A Career in Programming
You and Your Research by Richard Hamming
You and Your Research is the blueprint for a successful career in any discipline, not just research; in fact, the talk has the nickname “You and Your Career”. In this lecture, Richard Hamming shares his observations on “why do so few scientists make significant contributions and so many are forgotten in the long run?’’ Some of the key ideas include courage, luck, drive (“knowledge and productivity are like compound interest”), a focus on important problems (“If you do not work on an important problem, it’s unlikely you’ll do important work”), open doors, selling the work (“I suggest that when you open a journal, as you turn the pages, you ask why you read some articles and not others”), and much more. This should be required viewing for every high school student.
More talks on how to succeed in the programming industry:
The Myth of the Genius Programmer by Brian Fitzpatrick and Ben Collins-Sussman. This talk isn’t about geniuses or 10x programmers, but rather, about building a culture that avoids elitism and provides support for personal growth, collaboration, and ideas.
Programming Well With Others: Social Skills for Geeks by Brian Fitzpatrick and Ben Collins-Sussman. The Fitz and Ben duo are back to remind you that you need to learn more than just programming languages, compilers, debuggers, and algorithms to be a successful software engineer
JavaScript Masterclass by Angelina Fabbro. Don’t let the title fool you: this talk is a tutorial for how intermediate developers can become experts in any topic, not just JavaScript.
Computer Gaming
Gaming can make a better world by Jane McGonigal
By the time kids graduate high school, they have spent 10,000 hours playing games: this is roughly equivalent to the time they spend in school (if they had perfect attendance!) and the amount of time it takes to become an expert. What are they learning during those 10,000 hours? Jane McGonigal will show you how this time and learning can be used to make a better world.
More gaming goodness:
The game that can give you 10 extra years of life by Jane McGonigal. A powerful talk by McGonigal about how games can improve our lives and how they helped her recover from suicidal depression following a severe concussion.
Human Computation by Luis von Ahn. We can use human brain power and gaming to solve problems that are difficult for computers, such as image recognition, translation, and “common sense”.
Design Outside the Box by Jesse Schell. What happens when games invade every aspect of our lives.
Fun talks
Wat by Gary Bernhardt
Now, it’s time for some fun. Gary Bernhardt’s talk Wat is 5 minutes of pure awesome.
A few others to brighten your day:
Computers are a sadness, I am the cure by James Mickens.
Programming is terrible - lessons from a life wasted by Thomas Figg.
The Web Will Die When OOP Dies by Zed Shaw.

I continue to be very blessed for everyone who comes to take time out of their lives to look at my online blogs especially with the abundance of online blogs available. The following is the 6th of the 6 music playlists posts I am sharing today. However due to a time budget I am setting for myself to do some other stuff before leaving for work I am going to include a snapshot of a listing of 5 to 8 songs from the playlist and the approximate year timeframe when I first heard the song, though I may add more commentary andor more information at a later date depending on how I intuitively andor logically feel
The Voice by the Moody Blues sometime around 2011 although I first heard this song around the time I was somewhere between 5 to 6 years oldCounting Stars by One Republic sometime by May/June 2013Treasure by Bruno Mars sometime by July 2013
Happy by Pharrell Williams sometime by early 2014/February 2014Best Day of My Life by American Authors sometime by February 2014Heaven is a Place on Earth by Belinda Carlisle sometime by 1988 via local radio as a little girlEvery Thing She Does is Magic by the Police sometime by 2006/2007Magic by Robin Thicke sometime around 2008/2009I Can See Clearly Now by Jimmy Cliff sometime by 2008
I understand that I already included the following details twice this week yet my intuition and logic are also influencing me to include this information for the 6 playlists today, one of which I am going to admit is going to be a repost
a little about where I lived during those years
part of October 2003 to January 2005 California oct 2003 to jan 2005 north island california jan 2005 to february 2005 San Diego California
February 2005 to February 2008 Mayport Naval Base Florida
part of February 2008 to April 2009 Norfolk Virginia
part of April 2009 to May 2010 Orlando Florida
May 19, 2010-I moved here to Hyattsville Maryland and my husband Rusty Ridler followed me here to Hyattsville Maryland from Orlando Florida by June 2010

I Stella Carrier Humbly Call Upon What I Imagine To Be The Influence of Benevolent Spirits From the Heavenly Realms, my higher self, and my celestial spirit ally team for creativity in both my writings and all other areas of my life both present and future. I also welcome any and all forms of spiritual assistance and divine intervention in all areas of my life both present and future.
Stella Law of Attraction Script Stories 57
December 19, 2017
I Stella Carrier am thrilled because I have succeeded in saving over 1800 dollars after taxes by this timeframe. This for me is a sweet money victory on top of achieving success beyond my wildest dreams at my University of Maryland College Park food services job. I Stella Carrier am also happy to report that I am also thriving in my volunteer work and I am cross training in important skills that help me to relate to others even better socially and give me a sense of purpose and belonging. I Stella Carrier am also growing through my therapy that I voluntarily choose to go to. Additionally, I Stella Carrier am also happy to report that the marriage between my wonderful, sweet, and handsome husband of nearly 14 years come January 22 2018 is growing closer and more loving each day.
 June 1, 2019
 I Stella Carrier am extremely happy to report that I now have over 10,000 dollars after taxes saved. I Stella Carrier am blessed for this money blessing because this amount in money savings is in addition to having more than enough money to pay at least the minimum on my student loan payments and other necessary bills and expenses. I Stella Carrier also feel blessed because my intuition powers, my genius powers, and my imagination and creativity skills are increasing each day.

 I understand that Kourtney Kardashian and her family are very financially prosperous in their own right. It is only natural that her and her sisters are going to bond with their new arrivals and it is a safe bet on a beneficial side that none of the Kardashian sisters’ children are going to grow up wanting. As for Sofia Richie she is doing nothing wrong by calling Scott Disick her boyfriend. I am neither a fan or hater of Kourtney Kardashian yet if it is true that she called time on the relationship between her and Scott Disick then it is only natural and human that Scott Disick would find someone else who would romantically care for him. Yes, Sofia Richie is much younger than both Scott Disick and Kourtney Kardashian yet she is 19 years old which is old enough to consent. Additionally, it is challenging for me to admit this yet even at my job I have met some multiple teenage females who are very mature and responsible for their age. My point even if in the minority; even with the age difference between Scott Disick and Sofia Ritchie they may be more emotionally and spiritually compatible than many people realize. Even I understand that it may not even be the age that Scott Disick even cares about, maybe he likes that Sofia Ritchie enjoys her life andor carries little emotional baggage/maybe Sofia Ritchie is highly self confident, ambitious etc.

As with many other educated people both American citizens and highly aware people residing outside of the U.S., I am aware that Puerto Rico has voted to become the 51st state of the United States and they are still pending approval from Congress, which naturally still renders them a commonwealth of the United States not yet a state of the United States. With that said, whether President Donald Trump likes it or not, any citizen of Puerto Rico is currently allowed to move and reside anywhere they desire within the United States because they are American citizens. As a woman who voted for Hillary Clinton last year but whose late adoptive father was a supporter of Donald Trump I do try my best to see the good in President Donald Trump. However, public relations wise, I would hope that any of Donald Trump’s employees who are affiliated with his publicity would advise him on how this looks that he allows citizens of Florida and Texas to make use of foodstamps but not citizens of Puerto Rico especially after some of the politicians of Puerto Rico praised President Donald Trump in his recovery efforts. Yes, it is common knowledge that many of the citizens of Puerto Rico voted democrat yet this does not disqualify them for foodstamp usage approval for hot meals due to them being American citizens. Before anyone asks, I am blessed to be foodstamp free as I am blessed with a good paying job and an amazing, sweet, and handsome husband who is both ambitious and resourceful, yet I would not dare judge anyone on foodstamps. However, I felt compelled to speak up as I am really trying to see the good in President Donald Trump yet this story makes me want to say that someone in Donald Trump’s political circle needs to tell him to show more compassion towards even American citizens who are not predominantly his political supporters.

I saw some info online on Melissa Ben-ishay and I would agree that both her career/money success and weight loss are hard-won efforts. I have personally discovered by accident in a good way that still eating what I want in much smaller portions, even with less exercise can yield powerful weight loss results. Despite Melissa Ben-ishay being forced to leave her advertising job in the past I hope that she goes on to achieve much more career and money success regardless of the professional doors she chooses to go through in both her present and future career/employment  life.

Macaulay Culkin and Brenda Song clearly look both extremely happy and like they are having a fun time in the photos for Knotts Berry Farm. It is also always refreshing to see adults who are in the spotlight being unafraid and courageous in showing a little of their young at heart andor imaginative child side such as the example with the theme park date of Culkin and Song being clearly happy together.

I confess that I still want to watch the Last Ship tv show and the Good Place this autumn season and catch up on some Game of Thrones when I can. Due to time reasons, I only have time to watch some seasons of NCIS and I became interested in watching the Los Angeles versions after reading about them in a recent memoir written by Hillary Clinton. I also heard a local radio commercial less than 2 hours ago while I was in the shower advertising for NCIS Los Angeles and this article makes me wonder if Pauley Perette features in any of the Los Angeles episodes. Nonetheless, from me hearing about the NCIS Los Angeles tv show on local Washington D.C. radio less than 2 hours ago and unexpectedly coming across this article I intuitively and logically take this as a sign and hint to consider watching NCIS Los Angeles and also seeing if Perette is in any of those episodes when I can squeeze in the time after also keeping up on the most current episodes of The Last Ship and the Good Place. Nonetheless, I also wish Pauley Perette the best on her life journey regardless of the career and money paths she chooses to take after the NCIS tv show.

This Strange Effect by Hooverphonic resonated within my soul today less than 10 minutes ago after hearing it featured on an ad connected to youtube today of a woman in love with her partner who wants to capture an image for her on what looks to be a phone.

As with other people, my prayers and well wishes go out to everyone affected by this shocking incident that occurred in Nevada during the Harvest Music country festival. Obviously, I do not condone whatever drove Stephen Paddock to do what he did to many innocent people yet I am surprised that one motive is not being as widely discussed; what was Stephen Paddock’s social life, love life, and overall career life like from the time he was in his 30s andor even his 20s until 64 years of age. I say this because I noticed that he chose to kill so many people when they were having fun with their friends for family, was he wishing that he could be like some of the concert goers who have abundant family members andor friends surrounding him but instead of channeling that energy to get out there and meet people like other people do, you can pretty much get the picture. Additionally, I would also see if the law enforcement officials are comfortable interviewing Paddock’s family andor even at least one or both of  his exes andor in laws again to see if he was always rich in order to see if he felt the need to do what he did to both inflict revenge andor save face as it is human nature for even some family members to keep their distance emotionally if they are concerned about you possibly needing their help financially even if temporarily andor they would freely offer their help. I would also interview the in-laws andor any coworkers andor friends he knew in his 40s andor 50s to get an idea of how his social and love life was like without shaming anyone if they happen to tell a harsh truth about him (in order to get them to feel safe to open up about any hidden motives that may not be apparent to other people who may not have gotten to know him until Paddock was in his 50s/60s when he became wealthier). I believe Paddock’s brother that they got along, but obviously there had to be some details that were hidden from even his brother as it is also human nature to sometimes withhold andor be secretive about certain things from even the most well-meaning family members.

I admit that this article pertaining to Prince George’s School Lunch menu catches my attention both because Prince William and his wife Kate Middleton seem like a happy couple in love who also care about their kids and also due to the nature of my job pertaining to food services at a university. Thanks to my current job I am aware of at least a couple of long-term/lifetime career goals/ideas to have and this article pertaining to the meal plan at Prince George’s school gives me a fun and creative idea on imagining what the school lunch ladies at Thomas Battersea School work to prepare foodwise.

5 Tips for the Most Amazing Bridal Suite Ever
With all of the craziness surrounding your Big Day, it’s easy to let a few things fall to the wayside. It happens. But forgetting to prep your bridal suite? Sooo not an option. So today we’re teaming up with our friends over at Wayfair Registry for a list of tips + tricks on making your morning-of the best (and most photogenic) experience possible. Scroll below to take your bridal suite to the next level.
Light, light, light… and more light!
Being trapped in a small, dingy room isn’t exactly the ideal way to spend the morning of your wedding, and let’s be honest… it’s not a great option for your photographer, either. Which is why we say the more light, the better – which means picking a locale that has a lot of space AND windows. Trust us on this one… the natural light shining in will show off all of the beautiful deets, including those totally chic champagne glasses you picked up from Wayfair Registry, perfect for mimosas with your besties.
Keep Those Must-Haves Within Reach
Those marathon pampering sessions can be tiring, so staying hydrated and nutrient-filled is a definite YES. We recommend stocking up on all of the essentials from Wayfair Registry (water pitchers, cheese boards, serving trays, ice buckets) to keep the tasty treats + liquids flowing AND displayed in a way that will look oh-so-cute for all of those “getting ready” photos. Plus, don’t forget the little details, like earrings, perfume, that perfect shade of lip gloss and sandals for dancing the night away post-nuptials. You’ll most definitely want them all to make an appearance in your bridal suite photo ops. Trust us.
Find the Perfect Spot for Your Dress
You’re wedding day is all about you + your love, but that dress of your dreams? It deserves a moment. Start by finding a sweet space in your bridal suite where your masterpiece can shine, then sit back and watch your photog capture all of the magic. Oh, and don’t forget to de-clutter your space as much as possible, i.e., clearing out those coffee mugs, phone books and maps of your venue sitting in the background. Don’t make your gown compete for the limelight… it needs a space all its own.
Don’t Forget the Pretty, Pretty Details
Your wedding day will be, hands down, the most romantic + pretty day of your life, and it all starts in the bridal suite. So our advice? Make sure it’s as gorgeous as it can possibly be. Show off those bouquets (or order a special floral arrangement) in a beautiful vase from Wayfair Registry, set up some snacks on a beautiful serving tray and lounge around with your besties in the prettiest robes possible. You’ll be so happy you glammed up the occasion when you are perusing through those photo albums.
Have fun!
The stress of planning is finally over, and now that it’s officially the day you say “I do” to the one you love, it’s time to kick back in that comfy slippers from Wayfair Registry and r-e-l-a-x. Which means tall glasses of champagne, your wedding day playlist streaming from that awesome docking station and a whole lot of laughter with your best friends. Because the best accessory for your bridal suite? Your smile.
With a never-ending lineup of products for your home AND those pre-wedding festivities, Wayfair Registry is your destination for everything you’ll ever need… and beyond. Think 7 million products in everything from kitchen, bath, bed, patio, garden and living, plus free shipping, white glove delivery for those larger items, a 90-day return policy AND a 10% completion offer. It’s basically the definition of awesome… and your go-to locale for those bridal suite must-haves. Head there now to start preparing for the morning-of, and don’t forget to check out our very own curated list of loves.

5 Tips for the Most Amazing Bridal Suite Ever
With all of the craziness surrounding your Big Day, it’s easy to let a few things fall to the wayside. It happens. But forgetting to prep your bridal suite? Sooo not an option. So today we’re teaming up with our friends over at Wayfair Registry for a list of tips + tricks on making your morning-of the best (and most photogenic) experience possible. Scroll below to take your bridal suite to the next level.
Light, light, light… and more light!
Being trapped in a small, dingy room isn’t exactly the ideal way to spend the morning of your wedding, and let’s be honest… it’s not a great option for your photographer, either. Which is why we say the more light, the better – which means picking a locale that has a lot of space AND windows. Trust us on this one… the natural light shining in will show off all of the beautiful deets, including those totally chic champagne glasses you picked up from Wayfair Registry, perfect for mimosas with your besties.
Keep Those Must-Haves Within Reach
Those marathon pampering sessions can be tiring, so staying hydrated and nutrient-filled is a definite YES. We recommend stocking up on all of the essentials from Wayfair Registry (water pitchers, cheese boards, serving trays, ice buckets) to keep the tasty treats + liquids flowing AND displayed in a way that will look oh-so-cute for all of those “getting ready” photos. Plus, don’t forget the little details, like earrings, perfume, that perfect shade of lip gloss and sandals for dancing the night away post-nuptials. You’ll most definitely want them all to make an appearance in your bridal suite photo ops. Trust us.

you made a promise, then you hide and you said we’d all be dead by 25 and it’s not your disappointed sigh it’s not you traded this for pride not that we really even mind, we’re just bored you’re still alive
