The playlist: revisited

I've just passed the halfway point in my trip and in honour of this milestone I wanted to revisit my original idea for the blog focus - my travel playlist. To date, I've only written the initial post, but with a few months left I might still manage to get the better part of it in.

The night before I left I managed to put some of the songs up to be listened to, but to my frustration I could only get about half the playlist on there. More frustratingly, it's a skewed half that cuts out nearly everything that wasn't in English (half the list) and even some of the less popular anglo stuff. Furthermore, now that I'm in a different region, I can't actually see what's there and what isn't. So I thought I'd start by posting the entire list all together, then continue with individual posts on the songs as I go.
