Galentine’s Day, Leslie Knope’s holiday of “ladies celebrating ladies,” may not be the national holiday Leslie had hoped for. But it’s gained a life of its own since Parks and Recreation first introduced it in 2010. And this year, along with the premiere of The Golden Girls on Hulu, we’ve got an all-star playlist perfect for your Galentine’s Day soundtrack.
Lin-Manuel Miranda has already gifted the internet with curated playlists after he recently figured out Spotify, and he’s got an all-female playlist for your Galentine’s Day brunch.
I made you an early Galentine’s Day mix.
All Ladies.
Happy Galentine’s Day! https://t.co/MbxB3pj3qg— Lin-Manuel Miranda (@Lin_Manuel) February 13, 2017
His Galentine’s Day playlist is an extensive mix encompassing everything from Destiny’s Child and Santigold, to Florence + The Machine and Ashley Tisdale. Some of the artists will be familiar to fans of the Hamilton Mixtape like Regina Spektor, Queen Latifah, and Ingrid Michaelson. (Michaelson’s “Corner of Your Heart” in particular was an influence for “Satisfied.”) He also puts on a song from the Moana soundtrack, performed by star Auli’i Cravalho.
But there’s plenty of off-the-radar gems on this thing, too.
Leslie would approve.
