March was an incredible month music wise!!
I truly don’t think I’ve ever been as busy as I was this month and the music I listened to this month is special because it brings me right back to how I was feeling in all my travels.
At the beginning of the month, I visited a friend of mine in Nashville and he has incredible music taste and played the DJ all weekend, so the beginning of my playlist is a lot of the songs we listened to together.
One of my favorite memories from the trip (and from March in general) was when he played Little Lies by Fleetwood Mac out of the blue and said “this is the best song to sing to in the car with the windows down.” I don’t think I’ll ever be able to hear that song again without thinking of that moment.
It was also ironic that he chose that particular song because I had recently read Tell Me Lies by Carola Lovering (named after Little Lies) and I’d been meaning to listen to the song since I read the book, but I kept forgetting, so the fact that he picked that song, of all songs, stuck with me. And it’s also ironic because several parts of that book centralized around music, and the songs in the book had already reminded me of him because we’d coincidentally listened to all of them together back in December. It goes deeper than that, but the entire situation felt far too coincidental for me to overlook.
The following weekend, I went to 90s Con in Hartford, CT and met two of the Dawson’s Creek cast members and some of the OG Roswell cast, so although I didn’t put any Dawson’s Creek songs on the playlist, I’d be remiss not to include the Dawson’s Creek soundtrack in this post (especially Teenage Dirtbag by Wheatus).
Then, the weekend after that, I flew to Chicago and I went to Epic Cons Chicago and met some of the Roswell NM, Twilight, Teen Wolf, One Tree Hill, and Pretty Little Liars casts and the first night I was there, my friends and I saw Tyler Posey and Phem in concert. Unfortunately, at the time, I only knew one song by each artist (I’m a fan of Posey’s because of Teen Wolf, not his music), but I was blown away by how talented the two of them are!!
So, I started going through their discographies, and I ended up loving three of Posey’s songs SO much that they are the ONLY songs I listened to for the last FIVE days of March. Those songs were Runnin’, Sober, and Happy. Runnin’ is so chill and just vibey and Sober and Happy are some fun, head bumping songs with really great lyrics!!
