Pop Hits for Piano

Markdown

I made a new playlist from a songbook I bought on vacation. So far I've digitized most of Skinny Love. I will post a cover when I get the bugs fixed and a good piano instrument. I plan to learn at least 10 of these. Since I'll be making a lot of midis I will post them as I create them.

This playlist is really sad. You might find yourself wondering what in the world this happened to the person who created this list. Well, it wasn't me. I didn't create this list and I don't know who did.

NPR made a questionable list of New Wave1 songs. Rather than having you search for each of them and playing them on youtube (what a pain it is to do that), you can play this playlist I made. Bonus, I linked to all the wikipedia pages for the songs (and where there are no song pages, I note and link to the page that talks about the song.

Don’t know what New Wave is? It’s a musical genre including rock, punk, and pop in the 80s. It included 80s bands like Duran Duran, Devo, INXS, and Pet Shop Boys.

NME made a good list of 1970s songs. Since I didn’t experience the 1970s myself, I can’t tell you how accurate this list is. I know that it’s subjective, but it was really fun to convert to a Youtube playlist and listen to. How did I do this? Well, see the bottom for some simple source code.
