Okay one last Time, Thursday is the new Midnight Gems Slot, because I really want to deliver you a playlist for every weekend.
But since I post my #NinetiesFriday articles I had to find a new slot.
๐ป๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ป๐ ๐น๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ป๐๐ 90๐ - Nostalgia is (not) A Dirty Word

Okay Travis I know, but that Jack is popping up left and right in my algorithms and I have never listened to the boy....why is that?
That kind of thing triggers me so dived into this Jackass and I came back up thinking... not much.
I mean not bad, but I was not sold after five songs although this one was kinda fun...but no song was like... guess that is what makes it a Gem.
Jack Kays, Travis Barker - OUTRUN MYSELF
Time for something more Happy!
The movie might be a waste of money but some of the songs are sick. I mean I played these guys last week and well I only appreciate them more after this happy masterpiece.
Palaye Royale - Happy Together (Joker: Folie ร Deux)
Gaga does a nice little job doing a Haley but sheยดs not the real deal...sorry Lady I hope you donยดt hate me.
Dead Poet Society - I hope you hate me
I canยดt remember if I ever played these guys before but if not I should have. And when I was looking into them I saw they played the Aftershock Sunday in 2022 ...and damn that is truly an awesome lineup.
Rock Am Ring has got nothing on this festival.
Talking about festivals didnยดt this next lady got her little ass in trouble being a little too outspoken on a festival or something...
OK Google. Guess Roan is a very outspoken queer leftist Gen Zer, which is fine as long as she sounds like this.
Chappell Roan - Pink Pony Club
Whatยดs the difference between a Pony Club and a Bunny club?
Me: IDK?
Me: They both sound a little crazy so all good with me!
Polly Scattergood - Bunny Club
If you thought the previous ladies were a little disturbing you better stop reading because itยดs only getting worse in all possible ways.
I have a weak spot for disturbing ladies as some of you might know by now.
I mean Luvcat is such a wonderful example of crazy af and secretly sickening appealing. But she is no Harley
Luvcat - Heยดs My Man
What would Tori sound like if she was a bit more psychotic. or maybe just a tad more Gothic?
I think Raven would give a good impression of a little darker Tori, love this song but I miss a piano.
Raven Numan - Just A Number
My WTF moment this week!
What the hook is this???
Spice Girl Metal?
Janet Jackson Core?
AD INFINITUM - Surrender
I mean I played Babymetal before but.... what demonically mind was responsible for that previous song I mean this I get:
BABYMETAL x โช@ElectricCallboyโฌ - RATATATA
That Babymetal just gets me on that Happy Vibe, they generate dopamine like 90s Euro Trash ehh EuroDance.
Why are you still here?
