Please enjoy this wildly catholic apology-song playlist (Dolly! Mitski! Ramones! Prince! T.I. feat. André 3000!) on Spotify, kindly curated by Snarly’s music-obsessed flutist/drummer daughter. Please note that this list is more of a VIBE than an apology. Nirvana’s “All Apologies” and Beyoncé’s “Sorry,” for instance, are not good ways to express remorse. (Great songs. But bad apologies! Beyoncé’s is bad-on-purpose. Nirvana’s is just sad.)
Snarly is particularly taken with the new-to-her “Sweet Forgiveness,” by Iris DeMent (not to be confused with “Sweet Forgiveness” by Bonnie Raitt), which, wow, really expresses how potent and healing it is to be forgiven by someone who loves you.
Sorry for parental bragging, and also for party-rocking.
SorryWatch is true to the game. It’s called beer pong. And we can’t lose.
