Suggestions for Songza

Songza has become my constant companion in my office, as I needed something to drown out the incessant hum of the fluorescent lights. I get a small thrill from picking which situation I would like to play music for, though I know I'll always return to "Northern Soul Dance Party" or "Guilty 80s and 90s Pleasures" eventually. Choices include working out (ha! never clicked),  sitting on a back porch, saving the world, and so on. Unfortunately, there are some categories Songza underserves. I have prepared a list of suggestions for their curators:
  • Thinking About Men You Should Not Think About  (Artists include: Bruce Springsteen, The Replacements, Roy Orbison)
  • Pretending You're A Character In An Action Movie and Accidentally Stepping on One of the Cats (Artists include: Kavinsky, Justice, Howls of Feline Pain)
  • Surviving TTC Transit (Artists include: Kurt Vile, Bon Iver, Incoherent Ranting from the Seat Behind You)
  • Really It's Just One Guy You Should Stop Thinking About (Artists include: Fleetwood Mac's "Landslide" on an endless loop, just because you're feeling melodramatic)
If you have suggestions, feel free to share them in your comments. And Songza, feel free to hire me as one of your curators. I come cheap!
