I’m hosting a dinner party soon and I want to curate a playlist that gives a little bit of cozy/fall vibe but isn’t too slow- if that makes sense. I’ve already added some Norah Jones, John Mayer, and Amy Winehouse. Please comment your song suggestions below!

hi people so i’m bi and have a crush on a guy who’s very unavailable and i need songs to live out a love story in my mind with him

the rules:

- songs only by queer artists

- love songs only

- as gay as possible

ok have fun go

I've been expanding my library to include more female singers (trying to get to 50% women). BUT it seems a huge percent of algorithm recs from female artists are "I like this guy", "I don't like this guy", "this guy doesn't like me", and/or "guys suck because patriarchy." I'm tired of those flavors; I want female-led songs about ANYTHING else. I like rock, but I'm open to other genres too.

Examples of songs I like that fit the bill:

• "Cherry Bomb," The Runaways
• "Hell is for Children," Pat Benatar
• "Big Bad Wolf," In This Moment
• "This War is Over," Melissa Etheridge
• "Eat the Children," Otep
• "Here's to Us," Halestorm
• "Our Solemn Hour," Within Temptation
• "Skeleton Key," Dessa
• "Seven Devils," Florence + the Machine
• "Drown," Cellar Darling
• "Heaven Knows," The Pretty Reckless

Thanks in advance!

Thank you
