Thursday's Children - Playlist Palooza!

A lot of my fellow Thursday's Children writers have WIP playlists that they've been sharing and since I've started a new story, I've got a new playlist.

Confession time: I'm so not a fan of happy songs. I'm not sure what that says about me, but they never feel terribly genuine. So my regular playlists tend to be named things like:

Got Prozac?
It's Not a Celtic Love Song Unless Somebody Dies
Bad Choices
Fairly Angsty Love Songs
I'll Give You Something to Cry About  

(Once I made a mix CD for a dear friend with that title - she returned the favor with an even more depressing CD called, No, I'll Give YOU Something to Cry About, Bitch. To this day, it remains a favorite.)

For this new WIP, I've got a mix of traditional Celtic stuff along with more contemporary stuff. Given the vibe of the story it totally works. I also thought I'd share youtube videos of a couple songs that are in super heavy rotation on this story. (Below the list.)
