Music has always played an important role in my life—and that was especially true during my presidency. In honor of my book hitting shelves tomorrow, I put together this playlist featuring some memorable songs from my administration. Hope you enjoy it. pic.twitter.com/xWiNQiZzN0— Barack Obama (@BarackObama) November 16, 2020

That Gloria Estefan single is...so unexpected I have to think he loves it (as a survivor of Hurricane Andrew but not "Always Tomorrow" I demur).

"My Favorite Things" is a great, not-obvious choice. The rest is the rest.

That's pretty obvious to me

I will search out a metric for obviousness and report back.

"My favourite things" is a very canon choice (?)

this might be a dumb question, but what does "songs from my administration" mean in this context?

You call it "a promised land playlist" and yet the Springsteen song on it is.. "The Rising."
Curious.

Yes, but that could mean a whole bunch of things. It's not Abbey Road. It's not Dark Side of the Moon or Led Zeppelin IV or Thriller. (I was going to add "It's not even Kind of Blue," but then I see that's next.) And it's a president. Geez!
what does "songs from my administration" mean in this context?
Found that puzzling too. Maybe he means drawn from his annual playlists?

the list of songs is in an image that he has paid a graphic designer to lay out, embedded in the tweet

Putting your playlists in alphabetical order is either laziness or next-level-Oulipo curation.

so it's in not-alphabetical order and alphabetical order... at the same time? How awesome is that?!!
Just to be clear, we're talking about the musical tastes of an ex-President of the United States, as revealed in a publicity press release on the eve of a book release for which he was probably given a seven-figure advance, as if it weren't carefully crafted to ensure its appeal to the greatest number of people, while offended the fewest potential customers, while not tarnishing his "legacy" in any way. That list probably got passed by a dozen marketing people and close advisors. And who cares what he listens to?

ALways thought Freddie Freeloader was the only track that could be dropped from Kind of Blue. Good to see it's someone's favourite, I guess.

Ive always felt like he probably has pretty OK taste in music for a global supercelebrity who likely never gets any alone time whatsoever to listen to or think about music, and that simultaneously he doesnt know anything about these playlists until after they're published
