My Favorite Songs Playlist

One thing I definitely miss about the MySpace days (remember them?) was sharing music and playlists. I’ve always thought that one of the best ways to get to know people is through their Favorites playlist. At least for people that are really into music anyway. So- in that spirit, if you’re curious, here’s my favorite 180 songs as of Jan 2023. 🙂


Orange Piano with a lost doodle video

Orange Piano is written and performed by J Matthew Root. Available everywhere now in the album Piano Abstracts 1.

On Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/album/4l5hW4…

On Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/music/player/a…

The doodle is one I completely forgot about filming back in 2018. In the ‘before times’! Thats why I called it lost. It was! But now its found. I hope you like! ((Hugs!!))
