Hark! Starting with a rare 5-star.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★	I Listened Apes of the State	This song resonates for me on a few levels - the defence after being accused of not listening, the sense of dumb but self-aware feminine longing....
	Angel in Flip-Flops Steve Martin & Only Murders in the Building – Cast	Funnyish song... its onomatopoeia for flip-flops ('pitta putta' is catchy)
★ ★ ★ ★	Obsessed Addison Rae	"You say you're obsessed with me / So I took a second and I said me too / I'm obsessed with me as much as you"
	The Slow Drug PJ Harvey	I think I missed out on PJ Harvey a bit. I always think that when I hear Dan Bern's song praising "Chick Singers"
	Bad Liar Selena Gomez	This mode of music is very catchy.
★ ★ ★ ★	Swingin' The Alphabet The Three Stooges	Ripped from the youtube - merry nonsense pitterpatter song, makes me think of my Papa Sam, from traditional watch stooges on NYE.
	Re: Your Brains Jonathan Coulton	Novelty song about zombies. Funnier in theory than practice.
★ ★ ★ ★	Amazing Grace Judy Collins	I'm a secular person but this song is transcendent. If you squint really hard you can make a poetic, non-supernatural interpretation.
	Imperfectly Ani DiFranco	Melissa reminded me of this song, and its mood of being scared of the other person's reaction.
	Beat Goes On (Rhythm to the Brain) Campbell	Goofy fun clubby sound
	Sah Sah Nancy Ajram & Marshmello	Saw this on a Tik Tok about "when you tell your arab mom you're craving hamburgers" (and the bit of food-porn that results)
	Tetris Flap!	Arun got pointed me to this group, kind of a Squirrel Nut Zippers energy, and love this take on "Tetris" (Korobeiniki) - with lyrics about the game. And a tuba.
	Pump It Up (2021 Remaster) Elvis Costello & The Attractions	My friend Carrie mentions if you want this bassline played at about 2/3 to 3/4 speed, she's your woman.
★ ★ ★ ★	Enjoy Yourself Flap!	Always love the vibe of "Enjoy Yourself / It's Later Than You Think" (Thanks Arun)
	Hi Ren Ren	Singer personifying and singing with his mental illness
★ ★ ★ ★	Beastie Boys Tribute Paul Meany / Beastie Boys	I think cmg posted this one ... 3 beastie boy tracks with additional drum and guitar and keyboard tracks you can see being put down live in studio...
