21 Soft Songs for the Wee Hours

The 21 Soft Songs for the Wee Hours playlist is about 1 hour and 18 minutes long and has singer/songwriter, alternative, indie pop, soul, folk, worldwide, and jazz songs from the last decade. 29% of the music is from 2022. This playlist is available on Apple Music, Spotify, Deezer, and Tidal. The songs are in reverse order by year and then alphabetically by artist within each year.

Steady Holiday’s “Love Me When I Go to Sleep” is a song I’ve kept returning to. I’m not exactly sure why, but it has something to do with that conversation with her grandfather at the beginning of the video, how he loves what she has created so much. Oh, that kind of love. We crave it our whole lives.
