1990s PE Playlist

April 3, 2019

They say the music you love in middle school sticks with you for a lifetime. This is the 90's for me. A lot of 90's Alternative sprinkled with some pop.

Here's a link to my Apple Music Playlist

Here's the Spotify Playlist

About Spicy Lyrics

Everybody has different views on what's okay to play around kids and what isn't. So here's how this works. Below, you'll see all the songs on the playlist. If you click the song, you'll get the lyrics. But not just lyrics. You'll also see questionable content is highlighted like this.

Questionable content is highlighted by word so you can read it for context. The spiciest words are highlighted in red. Medium words are highlighted in orange. And any word highlighted in yellow is either very mild or it's a word like "head" where it could be okay or absolutely not okay, depending on the context.

Spicy Lyrics is a tool I created on my iPhone/iPad to help me quickly see if songs are appropriate to play in the gym. I love it so much, I'm giving it away so you all can use it on your phones.
