I need some music recs

[conuly]

Modern (by which I mean within my lifetime, + about ten years?), popular or popular-adjacent, good beat to allow dancing, no profanity or slurs, or at least, clean versions available.

Please and thankies!

It looks as though Boston won't suffer too badly because of the World Cup. Foxborough, where the games will be, flatly refused to schedule events until they received the money to pay for security and related expenses.

The hotel companies are unhappy, of course.

Smart of them.

Try Voxtrot - they'll occasionally throw in a "fuck", but only occasionally, so those songs are easy enough to skip. Also, they've only got about two and a half albums' worth of material, so it won't take you long to get through them.

The National, also. Mike Doughty's earlier solo work. Eels. The Divine Comedy. Boeckner.

I like Complicated and Sk8r Boy by Avril Lavigne, and I think they should be danceable. Also High Hopes by Panic! At the Disco is fun too.

Sounds like you're looking for EDM.

I heard Wake Me Up by Avicii and Aloe Blacc for the first time in forever today, and it's a radio-safe banger. Daft Punk barely has lyrics and is more or less dance club music. Also, Aqua (of Barbie Girl fame).
