Top 5: 8tracks Playlists

It goes without saying that this is an opinion and mostly based on who I follow/what I like. Obviously.
1. Paper Bags And Plastic Hearts by ashtonurwin
This one really lifted my mood the other night, and the title is from The Great Escape by Boys Like Girls, a forever favourite.
2. I'm Not Good With Words by jrdy
Inspired by My Mad Fat Diary which automatically drew me in. It has such a good mix of tunes from the period the show is set in, and some new ones that I love. Also, you don't need to be a fan of the show to enjoy it.
3. Grow Old With Me by warmwhispers
It's another fanmix but it features such cute songs and I've listened to it on plenty of lazy days.
4. Rainy Mornings by hazwaters
Such a brilliant combination of mid-tempo easy-listening songs that you probably already know (the tracklist is visible in the artwork).
5. Cheer Up Sleepy Jean by wassabii
I'm listening to this right now and already I've found a bunch of new songs and spoiler: the Friends theme song is in there. How could you not cheer up when you're listening to the Friends theme song???

What can we gather from this? I love a good fanmix and also, the best playlists are the ones that are a collection of songs you already like and new discoveries that quickly become favourites.
Of course check out my 8tracks likes for more playlist recs!!
