Don’t talk to me right now, I’m curating my playlist
Mokshaa Shivlani fashion journalist also admits to having held his reading lists. “With individual tracks, I don’t care, but all the experience of the tracks united is what I consider sacred,” she says. Her reading lists, she underlines, are such a personal form of self-expression that she sometimes uses Emojis as a title or a photo cover to transmit a specific mood that cannot be described in words. From a mixture “☕️” featuring songs that have courted the drama or controversy to a collection of tracks designed to make it feel like a floating corpse in motionless water, each detail is intentional. In some cases, these reading lists offer him an alternative to difficult conversations. “I had a toxic friendship that had followed her course, but my friend did not receive the trick, and I had trouble facing it,” she admits. “I didn’t have much left to say, so I sent him a reading list explaining what I felt.”
For Shivlani, this reading list – which consisted mainly in Taylor Swift rupture tracks as “I forgot that you exist” and “Death by a thousand cuts” – did everything to which she could not resolve.
The actor Joel D’ouza had a similar experience while sharing a reading list with an old long distance situation. Entitled “Twin” – A wink to their shared birthday – the collaborative playlist was their way of staying connected, with songs ranging from “Luka Chuppi” to stop selling your drugs’ ”. But in the end, he also became the crypt where their short -term relationship was resting. “When [the relationship] I went to Sh * t, she has just retired from the reading list even if her songs have stayed, “he said. “I found it very poetic: it was such a direct but subtle way to say” I got out “.”
In the end, our reading lists are pros to transmit the feelings that we are too jaded to speak. The question is: who listens?
