We have had sweet foods as a theme (here’s the resulting playlist from 2008), but this time our guru is looking for songs that sing of sweetness in any other sense. As ever, keep your eyes on the comments for more of a steer.
You have until 11pm on Monday 13 March to post your nomination and make your justification. Regular RR contributor saneshane, will select from your recommendations and produce the playlist, to be published on 16 March.
Here is a list of all songs previously picked and therefore no longer eligible.
If you want to volunteer to compile a playlist from readers’ suggestions – and potentially blog about the process/selection for the Guardian – please email matthew.holmes@theguardian.com with the subject line “RR guru”, or make yourself known in the comments.
Here’s a reminder of the guidelines for RR:
- Tell us why it’s a worthy contender.
- Quote lyrics if helpful, but for copyright reasons no more than a third of a song’s words. If sharing links, make sure there is appropriate copyright permission.
- Listen to others people’s suggestions and add yours to a collaborative Spotify playlist.
- If you have a good theme, or if you’d like to volunteer to compile a playlist from readers’ suggestions, please email matthew.holmes@theguardian.com
- There’s a wealth of data on RR, including the songs that are “zedded”, at the Marconium. It also tells you the meaning of “zedded” (picked for a previous playlist so ineligible), “donds” and other strange words used by RR regulars.
- Many RR regulars also congregate at the ’Spill blog.
