Slide Playlist

Hi, all. I appear to be returning to real life. I've been laid up sick all weekend and through yesterday. It's been loads of fun. I mentioned on twitter that I had to put together a 90s playlist to go along with reading Slide this weekend. I mostly relied on Genius to cull through my 90s collection -- making a great playlist is a bit like making a mixed tape used to be.

I'll put some selections from my music collection below, but I also noted all the references in the book as well. In some cases, it was just a band reference, so I'm including my own song selection (hopefully there will be an official playlist once the book is released):

Oasis - Live Forever

Pearl Jam - Alive

Smashing Pumpkins - Zero

Weezer -- The World Has Turned and Left Me Here

Decemberists - I sadly only know one song by this band

Nirvana - Heart Shaped Box

Alice in Chains - Would?

Smashing Pumpkins - Drown

Bobby McFerin - Don't Worry Be Happy

Veruca Salt - Seether (of course)

Liz Phair - Supernova

Ani DiFranco - the only other one on the list I never listened to

A Perfect Circle - Thinking of You

Pearl Jam - Black

Gin Blossoms - Til I Hear it From You

And some of mine:

Bush - Glycerine

Pearl Jam - Daughter

Dave Matthews Band - Typical Situation

The Cure - Just Like Heaven (technically 80s but rereleased on a '97 collection)

Marcy Playground - Sherry Fraser

Garbage - Only Happy When it Rains

Poe - Angry Johnny

Sponge - Molly

Counting Crows - Anna Begins

Oasis - Champagne Supernova
