Welcome back to Parsons Playlists! Today’s playlist is curated by student assistant Hudson (class of 2030) and features songs to enjoy on a rainy evening.
Rainy Night Playlist
With this playlist, I wanted to reflect the feeling of listening to the rain late at night. I decided to start it off with T.S.O.L.’s “Wash Away”, an exciting and upbeat song that I feel simulates the feeling and sound of an initial downpour during a storm. The playlist smoothes out from there as the rain becomes lighter. I chose to portray this with a selection of 80’s New Wave tracks (because who doesn’t like 80’s New Wave?).
Eurythmics – “Here Comes the Rain Again”
The Church – “Under the Milky Way”
The Psychedelic Furs – “Heaven”
Billy Idol – “Eyes Without A Face”
Tears For Fears – “The Working Hour”
Siouxsie and the Banshees – “Hong Kong Garden”
Talking Heads – “Once In a Lifetime”
The Smiths – “Heaven Knows I’m Miserable Now”
The Smiths – “The Night Has Opened My Eyes”
Depeche Mode – “People Are People”
Hüsker Du – “Don’t Wanna Know If You Are Lonely”
