For the Girls: March 2023

This is the March 2023 playlist for the girls. The Songs "The Next Episode (feat. Snoop Dogg)" - Dr. Dre (2001, 1999) Built around a classic West Coast rap groove with a memorable synth line and a laid-back, unmistakable hook. "Refugee" - Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers (Damn the Torpedoes, 1979) A straight-ahead road song with tight guitar work and the kind of spring-loaded energy that made the band a staple of FM rock radio. "Fall Down" - Toad The Wet Sprocket (Dulcinea, 1994) Jangly alternative rock with a wry, hopeful pulse and a bright chorus. "Me Myself and I" - De La Soul (3 Feet High and Rising, 1989) Playful, sample-heavy hip-hop that helped define the Native Tongues era with wit and loose-limbed rhythm. "Little Miss Can't Be Wrong" - Spin Doctors (Pocket Full of Kryptonite (20th Anniversary Edition), 1991) One of the era’s bigger alt-rock radio singles, with a punchy riff and a shambling, good-natured swagger. "A Girl Like You" - Edwyn Collins (Empire Records, 1994) A cool, understated indie-pop cut that fits the film-soundtrack vibe well. "White Flag" - Dido (Life for Rent, 2003) An early-2000s pop ballad built on a clear vocal and a spare, steady arrangement. "A Horse With No Name" - America (America, 1971) A dusty, acoustic-folk standard that opens with a desert-road image and settles into a gentle drift. "You Dropped A Bomb On Me" - The Gap Band (The Gap Band IV, 1979) A funk track with a sharp horn-driven hook and a hard-edged, party-ready bounce. "Everything Falls Apart" - Dog's Eye View (Happy Nowhere, 1995) A reflective mid-90s rock song that balances bruised lyrics with a melodic chorus. "Standing Outside a Broken Phone Booth With Money In My Hand" - Primitive Radio Gods (Rocket, 1996) A slow-burning alt-rock hit known for its hypnotic loop and low-key, late-night atmosphere. "Novocaine For the Soul" - Eels (Beautiful Freak, 1996) A moody, melodic alt-rock single with a dry wit and a memorable singalong chorus. Genres Hip-Hop/Rap Rock Soundtrack Pop R&B/Soul Alternative
