I opened one today and found songs from breakup summers, late-night coding binges, and road trips I havent taken in years. They sit there like exhibits: perfect, freeze-framed, and strangely distant, because the feelings that walked in with them left. Maybe we keep ‘random’ playlists because it feels safer than curating which parts of ourselves we still want to carry.
I embrace this playlist. Call it grabbag and put all my top songs I loved over the years. Genres are mixed and it brings back memories of years past. It’s not my largest Playlist but it sure is fun.
