For the Girls: October 2025

This is the October 2025 playlist for the girls. The Songs "Stray Cat Strut" - Stray Cats (Stray Cats: Greatest Hits, 2000) Rockabilly with a clipped, driving bassline and a wink of sidewalk swagger. "She's the One" - The Cockroaches (Hey Let's Go!: The Best of the Cockroaches, 1987) A bright, jangly track that helped define late-1980s Australian pop-rock. "Highwayman" - Highwaymen (Highwayman, 1985) A country ballad from the Highwaymen supergroup, built around rich harmony vocals. "Seasons in the Sun" - Terry Jacks (Seasons In The Sun (Expanded Edition), 2013) A melancholy pop standard about time passing and parting ways. "Not an Addict" - K's Choice (Paradise In Me, 1996) Alt-rock with a confessional edge and a chorus that lingers. "Look At 'Em" - Erick Sermon, Method Man & Redman (Look At 'Em - Single, 2025) A recent rap cut that pairs veteran wordplay with a hard, stripped-down beat. "My War" - Black Flag (My War, 1984) A hardcore track from Black Flag’s heavier, slower-turning period. "It's A Shame About Ray" - The Lemonheads (It's A Shame About Ray, 2008) A concise indie-rock tune with a sharp hook and a restless mood. "Lady" - D'Angelo (Brown Sugar, 1995) Smooth, understated R&B built on one of D’Angelo’s signature slow-burn grooves. "Red Red Wine" - UB40 (New Wave Hits of the 80s, 1983) A reggae-pop cover that turned into one of the genre’s most familiar crossover songs. "The Warrior (feat. Scandal)" - Patty Smyth (Greatest Hits Featuring Scandal, 1984) A big ’80s rock anthem with a strong female lead and punchy guitars. "Queen of My Double Wide Trailer" - Sammy Kershaw (Haunted Heart, 1993) A country novelty song with a rowdy, small-town sense of humor. Genres Rock Country Alternative Hip-Hop/Rap R&B/Soul Reggae Pop/Rock
