25 steps to aural bliss
Sally has tagged me in this bloody awesome meme.
New music? Check. Sharing? Check. Getting to tweak a playlist for hours on end? Check. The only way the meme could be improved would be if it came with free beer, and I can’t criticise Sally for that. It’s not her fault the technology doesn’t allow liquid transportation via Twitter now is it. Those boys at Twitter should pull their fingers out though, how long must we wait for beer delivery by tweet?! I digress…
So last Friday Katie Moffat was looking for new music and Sally helpfully shared her Spotify playlist (if Spotify were a woman, I would marry her) and then Adam from Realwire got involved and shared his (awesome) list too. And the meme was born.
Sally has tagged Louise (whose ‘puter doesn’t like Spotify), Anne (who shared here), Chris (who’s been a bit busy of late) and myself to hand over our playlists so keep your ears peeled and your eyes to the ground.
(Drum roll please….)

I’d like to pass the meme on to Robin, Matt and Bryony. And you’d all better do it. Or else.
EDIT.
I’m also going to tag up Mr Brown and Mr Lewis. For I love those guys and don’t fancy upsetting them with nonclusion in such a wonderous musical me-me.
