Monday Radio: Vol.02
Vol. 02: Dream Chaser
Metropolitan Excursions: A Sonic Journey Through Art and Emotion
Love is always worth it. I recently had a birthday, and while I try and pretend I’m not counting time–I am; we all are. Time is the thing that connects all–the one thing we have yet to figure out how to buy on credit. After a few episodes of ‘Love is Blind,’ I realized that love is the other thing that connects us all. It’s what we all truly want–to love and be loved. This Monday Radio is dedicated to loves, the cuties with crushes, and the hotties with the bodies.
This installment meticulously crafts a vibrant tapestry of indie, pop, and soul, mirroring the exhilarating, crisp, and heartwarming journey of burgeoning love. Allow your heart to thaw and sway to the rhythm of timeless classics such as Al Green's 'Let's Stay Together,' an anthem to love's enduring resilience that stands the test of time, and the introspective verses of Frank Ocean's 'Thinkin Bout You,' a melodic confession that perfectly encapsulates the intoxicating pull of having someone constantly on your mind.
Our musical journey takes us through the heart of Chicago, a connection beautifully embodied in Sufjan Stevens' 'Chicago,' a heartfelt testament to self-discovery, personal growth, and the thrill of new experiences in the city's bustling embrace. The playlist is sprinkled with sweet and savory notes of tracks like The 1975's 'Chocolate' and Carly Rae Jepsen's 'Run Away With Me,' their lyrics and melodies evoking the delightful taste of berries and rich, dark chocolate. Meanwhile, the smoky, sultry undertones of Arctic Monkeys' 'Do I Wanna Know?' and Lana Del Rey's 'Love' infuse the playlist with a dash of passionate intensity, painting vivid images of love's deeply intoxicating allure.
So, take a stroll through the city, or go on a trip in your living room with this collection of songs that are sure to make your heart beat a little faster. Immerse yourself in the enchanting world of love, let the melodies wash over you, and remember – love, in all its forms, is always worth the chase.
