SPRINGTIMESKANDINAVIHAPPYLOVESADHALLUCINATE

Upon my return this week Djorik and I decided this show should be Springtime themed. We're in the midst of May, the weather is confused and realizing it should wean itself into these hot summer days to come. We separated our show into 4 sets to summarize a typical Spring season. First, we started out with Happy go lucky sort of songs, mainly Swedish pop for those of you who like to run through OPEN FIELDS (hence our first song). Then, we moved on to the Springtime Lovers set. Spring is a great time to fall in love, so why not play some love songs. Then we sped up to those of you who found your love was a little overrated, and played some sad, rainy day tracks. Finally, we ended the hour with Springtime Hallucinations. People are all over the world are in a rollercoaster of emotions, the weather is hot, then it's cold, and then you realize you haven't slept or eaten in days because either you're studying for finals or because you're having your midlife crisis since you lost your job *eek*, this is getting intense. Either way, the hallucination set would've been a great way to distract you, calm you, and take you into another world. I'd like to share that we actually received a call from an older gentlemen doing just this during the first song by Eleanoora Rosenholm. He was definitely experiencing some otherworldly phenomenons in his mind, and I couldn't have asked for a better phone call during the first song of the hallucination set. It was so strange, haha, I can't get over it. He really was on something, but he started out whispering very quietly, then finally just exclaiming loudly and slowly about how amazing the song was and how I need to "keep doin' what you're doin' girl." Amazing. You guys should give me more calls like that. ANYWAYS, here's the playlist from Tuesday evening:
