New Order

A 2007 Playlist

The ball dropped, the goose is cooked, and it seems like Ryan Seacrest is here to stay. Nothing to look forward to but a list of resolutions? Cue up DailyCandy’s post-holiday slump protection playlist and ring in the New Year.

“The First Song,” by Band of Horses (Let’s start at the very beginning, a very good place to start.)

“The New Year,” by Death Cab for Cutie (Ben Gibbard doesn’t feel any different. Do you?)

“Hair of the Dog,” by Nazareth (Take pride in the 48-hour hangover.)

“Monkey & Bear,” by Joanna Newsom (2007 is the Year of the Pig. These two make good company.)

“The Diet Song,” by Bobby Bare with Charlie Daniels (Let holiday gorging be forgot and never brought to mind.)

“Is It Wicked Not to Care?” by Belle and Sebastian (Diet resolutions are so cliche.)

“Memory Lane,” by Elliott Smith (Look back on a year’s worth.)

“The Greatest,” by Cat Power (Because 2007 will be.)

“The Now,” by Mr. Lif (Savoring each moment: a worthy goal.)

“Winterlong,” by the Pixies (Take heart: The days only get longer from here.)

“Just Kiss Me,” by Daylight Basement (Because who gets their fill at midnight?)
