Musically, I'm very much a child of the 80s. A couple of months ago I started my first ever Spotify playlist, of 80s tunes I still enjoy, but excluding any band or singer who would warrant any more than four tunes on a playlist. So at least 20 of my favourite bands were excluded, such as the entire 80s output of New Order, The Cure and Depeche Mode.
Despite this, my playlist has just passed 24 hours in length. The first entry, quite randomly, was Robert Palmer - You Are In My System, and the one that broke the 24 hour barrier was Skeletal Family - So Sure.

There's always one, isn't there? "My playlist is bigger than yours".
Edit: it appears KH and I listened to almost exactly the same music during the 80s.

Billy Ocean - this is really good, live.
It's staggering really - that was kids TV back then. We were so lucky.

Re: What Are You Listening To Right Now
Putting this down as nuevo 'ardcore. From 2019 but could be a straight from Reading's finest Basement Records back in '94.
