100 days of enemy recs: 2/3rds of the way!

Two third of the way through! I honestly didn't think I'd be making it this far. (even if I am taking a lot more skip days than when I started...)

Instead of posting recs (...possibly because I am still too busy re-reading Of Old Mystics to have put together the next set), here is the spotify playlist I put together from everybody's help on the 50-day entry:

Best Nemeses

It is currently at 59 songs and four hours. It is not the least bit cohesive and probably best listened to on random, so my strange music tastes mix in a little bit better with everyone else's. I think it is set up now so that other Spotify users can also add songs.

It doesn't include any Broadway/Musical tracks because it quickly became clear that I could to a whole other playlist with only musicals, which I may yet do!

Also, two more playlists on the theme from [personal profile] skygiants: Confused adrenaline response and Big obsessive nemesis energy.

And a playlist for waltzing with your enemy ♛ (dark royalty core) which rolls across my tumblr now and then. Good for writing to!

Oh, NICE! Playlists are always love!

Also, thank you for doing this, I've gotten a lot of fannish enjoyment and stuff to read out of it.

With appropriate timing, Jill Bearup has just posted a video on the appeal of Enemies to Lovers. (This isn't the same one that somebody else mentioned a while back: that was the tl;dr summary, and this is the more in-depth exploration.)

YAY you for this project. (I have been enjoying it very much, sorry for not commenting more to say so!)

Thanks for the playlists, I'm particularly hopeful for 'Confused adrenaline response' where I know the first few songs and LOVE them and have no idea about the rest of them! NEW MUSIC TIME.

I love this playlist. (It's got TSwift's Look What You Made Me Do in it twice, btw)

I completely forgot about The Greatest Showman's The Other Side last time, but it fits too.

A song I forget to suggest is "One Last Fight" by Thea Gilmore, largely for the lyrics that encapsulates so many good enemies-to-lovers stories: "And you wondered what was the use/But you'd be my worst reason if I'd be your best excuse."
