"Turn the Beef to Brown, Love to Seer My Obsession"
Saturday, February 25, 2023
I may be a little vexed with YouTube Music (YTM) lack of playlist sort, something that has been with Spotify for a decade. I'm guessing they have a greater focus on albums over user playlists. At any rate, I was amused by this Reddit comment:
Kinda hilarious that a product team within a company owned by an entity called Alphabet Inc. doesn't have an alphabetical option.
Well said.
That said, while YTM just doesn't have a robust user community (likely because of the above) and instead relies on YouTube playlists instead of songs off of albums, it is possible to create one! I'm pulling together a massive country music playlist of stuff primarily from the 90s, what my radio used to play. And frankly, I forget how much of my brain space has been reserved to sing-a-long to all of those songs. Can't I free that up for something valuable?

- ...Jesus and Mama always loved me, even when the Devil took control...
- ...on a winding road her memory flows. She'll face the fact, she wants to go back. She opens her heart to an old memory; she closes her eyes and she smiles. Just ask her if she ever still thinks about me...
- ...and how did we end up where we are, somewhere in the vicinity of the heart, I feel something hit me awful hard...
- ...Feed Jake, he's been a good dog, my best friend right through it all. If I die before I wake, feed Jake...
- ...Let's all go down to Dumas Walker, we'll get us all burger fries and a bottle of skeet (? I never said I could accurately remember them)...
- ...She couldn't keep from crying when she told me goodbye. I knew, lord, it was breaking her heart, 'cause she was breaking mine...
- ...That ain't my truck in her drive, man, this ain't my day tonight. Looks like she's in love and I'm out of luck.
