Whatever the original figure was, it is now Garfield who is holding the shovel and wearing the sunhat. The white inset heart reads "February 2023" in script.]
February! This is a short playlist because I saw I it was almost at 2 hours and 28 minutes long and then got it to 2 hours and 28 minutes and then couldn't change it. Because how cool is that?!
There are a lot of what could be construed as romantic or pseudo-romantic songs on here but I think actually a lot of songs are about big feels in general so it's more of an accident. There are also a couple of songs on here ('Do You Want To Touch Me' and 'Tumbling Down') that I will only ever associate with Velvet Goldmine, which is honestly one of my favourite movies ever.
I could have sworn 'To Be Rich - Should Be A Crime' has shown up on monthly playlists before, but looking back at spreadsheets I guess not. I first heard it as the cover by Cola Boyy, which absolutely bops. I think about this song a lot.
