Featured Playlist: Ann Harkey

Q: Who are you?

A: I’m Ann Harkey, the life editor of The Flor-Ala.

 

Q: The title of your playlist is ‘Shuffle.’ Can you tell me why you named it that?

A: Because all of my playlists are shuffle, and there’s no theme. They’re just a random collection of songs I like at the moment.

 

Q: Do you have a favorite song on the playlist?

A: “Eat You Up” by Boa- the video is insane. She’s one of the best pop dancers I’ve ever seen and you can’t help but sing along to the song and feel better.

 

Q: Is there any artist on the playlist who has impacted your life in some way?

A: Lana Del Rey- the only artist I can actually claim to have saved my life. There was a week solid where I did nothing but cry and listen to her album. During that week, I listened to her music and just felt sad, but then I listened to the lyrics and looked at them in a positive way.

 

Q: What inspired you while you were putting together this playlist?

A: My inspiration differs from day to day. Once again, my combination of songs are always shuffle-like and random. It just depends on my mood. In this particular mood, I was feeling happy and bouncy.
