As 2022 is coming to an end, I am looking back at the playlist that I assembled during this year (an initiative inspired by Austin Kleon)
There’s the usual mix of soundtracks to movies we watched (e.g., 3 and 16), songs I heard during the holidays (e.g., 5 and 18), and music that I listened to while driving the “children” to training, airports, houses moves and so on (an aspect if life that I have grown to treasure). This year, there are also two tracks that are linked to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine: tracks 8 and 14.
During 2022, I also seem to have come across various covers of popular songs, which I really liked. For instance, tracks 6, 23 and 24. That in turn, led me to create another playlist just for interesting covers.
So here is the complete list of tunes that marked my 2022:
Are there any specific tunes that marked your year, or that you associate with specific events?

Item 1 is interesting for me as it is the name of a Dire Straights tribute band that my son played guitar in. The money was good, there were plenty of gigs, but after about 18 months he quit because he couldn’t stand playing the same numbers night after night. “I would rather play my own stuff in an almost empty hall, where just one person in the audience gets what I’m trying to do.”
