While not for everyone, music can be so great to inspire love for a certain genre or be a great background noise as you read. With that in mind I made a sci-fi playlist for you all to enjoy. Click on the graphic to go to the playlist on youtube. And below you can see bits of lyrics from the songs that made me choose them.
Waves
Drifting away
Wave after wave, wave after wave
I’m slowly drifting (drifting away)
And it feels like I’m drowning
Pulling against the stream
Zero Gravity
Cause you are the tin man
I cannot hear you
Where did you go?
You, you slowly vanish
I cannot feel you
Where did you go?
Lost in Space
It split like a cell
And man cannot tell
The lie from parallel
Hurts 2B Human
Like we’re buckled and preparing before the crash
Like we’re walking down a road of broken glass
Now if we defeat all odds
And it was us against the world
You can count on me
You know I’d have your back
Skyward
And go skyward
Aim higher
When you’ve had enough
You should rise above
The Great Beyond
In all this talk of time, talk is fine
But I don’t want to stay around
Space Shot
The world is crazy, who can deny
All About That Space
And my ship goes zoom zoom into the deep space
Boldly searching for new life and new racesI see your laser beams workin, that zap and zop!
This is a great idea. I don’t listen to music as much as I’d like, but I do love all the SF themed songs you found😁

Thanks. I usually listen to the radio but I know others prefer playlists so I figured it would be a nice addition.

This is great! I love making playlists for what I’m writing to get me in the mood. Veritable soundtracks for the stories. I also made a mean grocery shopping playlist entitled “Songs to Chop Paul Allen Up To; A Grocery Shopping Playlist” Here are a few if you are looking for fun new Spotify lists.
Grocery Shopping
For my last book
And for the book I’m currently writing
Enjoy!

I think we could all use some sweet playlists right about now, so maybe your timing is perfect.

Wat een leuk idee om er een playlist voor samen te stellen. Vroeger luisterde ik vaak en heel bewust naar muziek maar de laatste jaren steeds minder. Ik neem me ook telkens voor om Harry Potter te herlezen met de soundtrack op de achtergrond en ik ben heb net weer vergeten toen ik the Goblet of Fire herlas.

Ik lees vaak met de radio op de achtergrond aan of wanneer ik blog. Maar ik zoek ook niet altijd bewust muziek meer op. Dan moet ik wel in een bepaalde bui zijn.

I love this idea! After all, music is really just poetry put to music, besides which, it’s obviously writing. 😉 I think lyrics can definitely be beautiful and captivating, and you’ve got an interesting mix here. I enjoyed reading them, even though I don’t know the songs except one (which actually is all the better, because there’s no bias coming in and i can just read them for what they are).

Truth. And yes I liked adding the lines to give it a different feel before listening.

I love Aimee Mann! I’m going to go back and listen to the R.E.M. song later. I subscribed to your channel and I am going to watch your shelf tour video later, too! 👍✨

I had never heard of her before but some space googling made me find her and I am pleased.
