The selection of songs is quite chill and up-beat. Perfect for that weekend ride to a new destination. </P> <P> </P> <P>The songs vary in style and there is a big chance you'll discover your new favorite band. So strap your seatbelts on and lets jump in!</P> <P> </P> <P>First up we've got <a href="https://community.spotify.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/22642133">@Ivan</a> with <EM>Only Shallow</EM> from <STRONG>my bloody valentine</STRONG>.</P> <P>"<SPAN>This month I rediscovered the shoegaze genre by listening to some old-school classics. The second slot in my </SPAN><I data-stringify-type="italic">On Repeat</I><SPAN> playlist is taken by this track by My Bloody Valentine, considered to be one of the bands pioneering in this movement. I love how the guitars sound similar to the noises made by elephants, and I wonder if this is intentional or not."<BR /><A href="https://open.spotify.com/track/1KKuoYESWoUGsau6YYoEMl?si=ff18b0b644354938" target="_self">https://open.spotify.com/track/1KKuoYESWoUGsau6YYoEMl?si=ff18b0b644354938</A> <BR /></SPAN></P> <P><SPAN>His next suggestions are:</SPAN></P> <P><SPAN><EM>Belgium in the Rain</EM> by <STRONG>Hooverphonic</STRONG></SPAN></P> <P><SPAN><STRONG><A href="https://open.spotify.com/track/5dIzB9W0TQbBFzU4QX0zdj?si=d6db0d31376d4e64" target="_self">https://open.spotify.com/track/5dIzB9W0TQbBFzU4QX0zdj?si=d6db0d31376d4e64</A> </STRONG></SPAN></P> <P>and <EM>Caligula</EM> by <STRONG>Macy Gray</STRONG></P> <P><A href="https://open.spotify.com/track/2EFTtQzViCDQKyNPRWttBq?si=bbbb478e46ed42a8" target="_self">https://open.spotify.com/track/2EFTtQzViCDQKyNPRWttBq?si=bbbb478e46ed42a8</A> </P> <P> </P> <P> </P> <P><a href="https://community.spotify.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/23790735">@Ver</a> brings up the beat with <STRONG>Efendi</STRONG>'s oriental inspired <EM>Mata Hari!</EM></P> <P><A href="https://open.spotify.com/track/3wuvVwA5RaifHz1uqKac8P?si=0838b95b26eb4c91" target="_self">https://open.spotify.com/track/3wuvVwA5RaifHz1uqKac8P?si=0838b95b26eb4c91</A> </P> <P>Here is what made her include this song: <SPAN>"I love the whole Eurovision experience and you will find me each year sitting in front of the screen watching it.
