Hi, all,
It's near the end of 2023 and one of my favorite accomplishments this year was to re-make my classic rock playlists in YouTube, in fact, I plan to change my Spotify playlists to match these in the new year as a new project. They've changed since I initially announced them, though there are not any more changes planned at this time (they tend to show up unexpected when I browse my music library, which I will need to again since I'm likely changing computers after Christmas, I couldn't write a story last night in Word because my keyboard's many problems took me out of the mood). I plan to do 1980, 1981 and 1992 sometime next year, and maybe 2016, 2017, 2018, 2020 and 2021, those are harder since some songs aren't available on streaming and some of the smaller years rely on more from less albums due to not having almost-unlimited access to music. Anyway, here are my playlists, 1960s, 1975, 1977, 1989, 2019, 2022 and 2023, showing also my favorite songs of 2023.

This was a good year, some above are performances only available on YouTube, but it lays a good blueprint for what I liked overall this year. I don't plan on making one for next year yet, but we'll see. I also updated my top 50 love songs and will update it in the new year, as well. I plan to spend December mostly resting from what feels like years of nonstop work and only picking up as much as I can handle in the new year so I can spend more time in peace and fun and less stressing out about everything.
