For the Girls: December 2024

This is the December 2024 playlist for the girls. The Songs "More Human Than Human" - White Zombie (Astro Creep: 2000 Songs of Love, Destruction and Other Synthetic Delusions of the Electric Head, 1995) A heavy industrial-metal cut with a mechanical pulse and a big, distorted hook. "Wild Heart" - Towa Bird (American Hero, 2023) Bright, guitar-driven alt-rock with a swaggering, anthemic feel. "The Ketchup Song (Aserejé) [Spanish Version]" - Las Ketchup (Aserejé (The Ketchup Song) - Single, 2000) A glossy early-2000s pop novelty built around a chant that caught on fast. "Fantastic Voyage" - Coolio (It Takes a Thief, 1994) A laid-back West Coast rap groove with a smooth, reflective flow. "I'll Take You There" - The Staple Singers (The Best of the Staple Singers, 1986) A gospel-rooted soul classic built on call-and-response energy and a steady lift. "Small Talk" - Briston Maroney (Indiana - EP, 2019) An intimate indie-rock song that keeps its energy small and conversational. "Kool Thing" - Sonic Youth (Goo, 1990) Noisy art-rock with jagged guitars and a restless, angular groove. "Big In Japan - Best Of-Version" - Alphaville (First Harvest 1984-1992, 1984) An early-’80s synth-pop favorite with a dramatic, polished keyboard sound. "Shimmy Shimmy Ya (feat. Horseman)" - Prince Fatty (Supersize, 2010) A reggae reworking that folds rap swagger into a dubby groove. "Time After Time" - Cyndi Lauper (She's So Unusual, 1983) A tender pop ballad with one of the era’s most familiar melodies. "Take Your Mama" - Scissor Sisters (Take Your Mama - Single, 2003) A glossy dance-rock track with a playful, feel-good chorus. "Viva Discordia" - That Handsome Devil (A City Dressed In Dynamite, 2008) A theatrical alternative-rock number with cabaret energy and sharp turns.
