Character Playlists: Ame & the Fox
Added 2023-08-24 19:08:18 +0000 UTC
From bowl-cut-having, mischievous servant of the forest, to the link between great spirits and humans, Ame's playlist reflects the full spectrum of her growth. Which of these tracks transports you back to Grandmother Wren's cottage?
Link to Ame's Playlist, liner notes by Erika attached below.

Believe it or not, the Fox loves to jam. And yes, Brennan had to include "What Does the Fox Say?" for posterity. What do you think the Fox's go-to karaoke song is?

Just catching up and I think "The fox" by Nickel Creek should be on the fox's playlist.
DJ Medina
2024-05-29 07:56:11 +0000 UTCMeg Mac's cover is my favourite expression of this song - though I am not sure which I'd prefer for this playlist
Peter Vernon
2023-11-29 04:08:18 +0000 UTCGrandma's Hands by Bill Withers should absolutely be on Ame's list.
Michael Stone
2023-10-25 00:18:57 +0000 UTCAbsolutely Oo De Lally is on there yes
Ashley Teatum
2023-09-12 16:40:35 +0000 UTCReal Lady Eboshi from Princess Mononoke vibe
Alex H.
2023-09-05 14:14:56 +0000 UTCIt is the theme song for the party for me.
Princess Sparklefart
2023-09-03 21:29:49 +0000 UTCThe fact that “Dirty Paws” is not on any of the playlists is disappointing. This is the song that has been playing in my head this entire time. https://youtu.be/mCHUw7ACS8o?si=dp-pmhhAcrXGfMPO
Princess Sparklefart
2023-09-03 21:29:24 +0000 UTCWildflowers is one of my favorite folk songs! I listen to the version by the Wailin' Jennys and totally agree with Erika's note! (def check that version out of you like haunting harmonies)
rocket-flash
2023-09-03 04:56:26 +0000 UTCThe 2 Anastasia songs are making me wonder if Ame is "secret royalty" or something like that. We don't know who Ame's parents are. Very excited to see where this campaign goes!
Michelle Spurgeon
2023-09-02 11:58:28 +0000 UTCNot gunna lie, I half expected Nickel creek’s “the Fox” to be on the fox’s playlist and I’m so sad it isn’t.
Grace Davis
2023-09-01 20:44:07 +0000 UTCThis confirms what I have suspected since Episode 1: as a "burnt-out former gifted kid" I grew up thinking I needed to be Suvi, but I'm much closer to Ame at heart. Fuck it, I'm a flower.

Ruvi
2023-08-31 12:36:43 +0000 UTCAme's playlist is Everything i hoped it'd be abd More !! So many songs i didn't Expect but it's a Vibe Hellooo
Ruvi
2023-08-31 11:34:04 +0000 UTCNot the fox and the hound! That hits right in the worn vhs of my heart.
Shannon Giesige
2023-08-31 06:39:00 +0000 UTCI listen to this playlist at the start of my workday to put myself in a better mood and remember not to take things too seriously
Jules Vance
2023-08-30 14:44:30 +0000 UTCI really loved a lot of these songs and Devil in the Deep Blue Sea are no longer making music together but are in other music projects.
Christie Joesbury
2023-08-30 01:14:00 +0000 UTCI want to hear Brennan and Erica sing "voice in my throat"🙏
Gregg Simms
2023-08-29 18:31:36 +0000 UTCJOHN HARTFORD MENTION FUCK YES

2023-08-28 22:24:46 +0000 UTCFuck it I'm a Flower.
bitterbaldguy
2023-08-28 22:01:42 +0000 UTCNow I will only ever imagine the Fox as wearing a tiny version of the oversized David Byrne suit
Robertson Whitney
2023-08-28 15:31:53 +0000 UTCWow the Fox's playlist is an unexpected favorite for me... Now I wake up every morning with "Up on the Hill Where They Do the Boogie" stuck in my head😅
Jamie H.
2023-08-28 15:05:18 +0000 UTCNow I will only ever imagine the Fox as wearing a tiny version of the oversized David Byrne suit
Robertson Whitney
2023-08-28 14:57:49 +0000 UTCI had not heard Voice in My Throat before and I’m obsessed now. Thanks for sharing with us!
Katlynn
2023-08-28 10:56:35 +0000 UTCNothing prepared me for the first song in the Fox's playlist after listening to the 3 PCs playlists first
Manny A
2023-08-28 05:45:47 +0000 UTCAnything Crane Wives is absolutely it for Ame, although "Sleeping Giants" plays in my mind theater when Eursilon is running for the water.
The Wizard Spork
2023-08-27 22:36:19 +0000 UTCI wanted to say that I've been listening to Fox's playlist for 2 days straight now while doing my class readings, and the Spotify'd continuations are excellent. Also, if you've not checked him out yet, Brennan --and anyone else!--you should check out Phil Ochs, a really awesome American folk singer and journalist from the 1960s
Abigail Waldron
2023-08-27 16:53:37 +0000 UTCI listened to this playlist, top to bottom before reading the liner notes, and it was perfect!!! I couldn't believe how many times I was saying my head, "wow, that is so Ame," and I don't even know her like that!
Plant Sugar
2023-08-27 12:17:37 +0000 UTCThe Labyrinth is not just one of my all time favorites, it's also where my Mom got my name from! Any time I see it referenced out in the wild I get ecstatic, so the fact that the opening to the soundtrack was influential enough to fit into Ame's playlist... there are no words!! ❤❤
Jareth
2023-08-27 07:44:01 +0000 UTCI miss read come along as come along with me from adventure time and while the former definitely matches better I got excited for a sec
Ayan Jama
2023-08-26 23:45:02 +0000 UTCI love that both Erika and Brennan had "Voice in my Throat" on their playlist. TT_TT Ame cares for others before herself so often that her story would've become even more tragic than it already is. I'm glad Fox exists to protect Ame and remind her to care about herself, too.
Jade
2023-08-26 18:37:15 +0000 UTCLabyrinth as how Ame sees Eursulon was so unexpectedly on point for me - I’ve loved that movie since childhood and now will be unable to imagine the spirit world and Eursulon’s place in it separate from that chaotic world.

Ruvi
2023-08-25 22:49:32 +0000 UTCI assume these playlists were created independently of each other, which makes Voice in my Throat for Ame and The Fox just that much cooler.
Joshua rassier
2023-08-25 22:45:07 +0000 UTCUGH these playlists are so GOOD!
Corey Lynn
2023-08-25 17:51:35 +0000 UTCErika your list is SUBLIME. Everything at once = *chef's kiss* I mean, strong as an oxe?! Those gains Ame those gains!!
Katie Butler
2023-08-25 17:51:29 +0000 UTCDid anyone else picture Justine from Mentopolis hanging out with the fox? Now THAT'S a spinoff
Katie Butler
2023-08-25 17:50:07 +0000 UTCIs there anything more perfect than Oodelally
Emma Rose_D20_is_my_church
2023-08-25 16:10:33 +0000 UTCOMG Brennan you troll! Ylvis??!! Honestly I’d be disappointed if it wasn’t on the playlist, but still!
TheDisInfectant
2023-08-25 16:02:43 +0000 UTCHey Brennan, why you trying to make me cry? The fox and the hound? The saddest kid movie?? 😅
Caryne Hampton
2023-08-25 14:44:27 +0000 UTCThanks Brittany!
Rick Lees
2023-08-25 13:25:46 +0000 UTCI love all the playlists! I don't know why but Parachute by Covet would fit right in on Ame's playlist. Especially about Ame and Suvi -"You and I were standing outside the house where this all started, love was not enough but I know we'll make it through."
Christie Joesbury
2023-08-25 13:25:16 +0000 UTC"Short People" on the Fox's playlist is way out of pocket lmao
Trevor Fingler
2023-08-25 13:21:49 +0000 UTCThanks for putting these together! I think you're missing "The best things in life are free" from the Fox's playlist
Brittany Herzog
2023-08-25 12:34:27 +0000 UTCNot me sat here sobbing at Best of friends....
Aimee Hardman
2023-08-25 09:34:59 +0000 UTCAfter listening to all the playlists I realized Suvi was born into a Studio Ghibli movie and said "no fuck that I'm going to bring a boss bitch, rise and grind culture that this place is lacking", and we love her for it
J Welch
2023-08-25 08:38:14 +0000 UTCAnyone else can't open/download the liner notes? It worked on the other post for me, but not this one for some reason
Pan or Mercutio
2023-08-25 07:16:10 +0000 UTCBetween Once Upon a December and Time in a Bottle, I'm wondering if the effect of capturing some ephemeral memory/sense is that it does in fact do funky time stuff to nearby milk, given how easily it can sour? Like a tiny piece of the past is yoinked into a perfume that smells like your long-lost love, and suddenly your milk's clabbered
AliceH
2023-08-25 06:26:21 +0000 UTCI am so excited about Short People and Trouble for the fox omggggggg
Madison Beske-Somers
2023-08-25 04:08:48 +0000 UTCAlso, Lou and Taylor don't have their pronouns on the WBN website

2023-08-25 01:54:15 +0000 UTCCRANE WIVES ON AMES PLAYLIST SO TRUE. god the way I’m going to listen to these playlists on repeat
Claire
2023-08-25 01:50:41 +0000 UTCBig thanks to brennan for catapulting me back to middle school theater production trauma by including a tune from the Music Man
Jules Vance
2023-08-24 23:24:43 +0000 UTCAme's playlist is pure chaos. It's just a nine-ring circus in that girl's head at all hours of the day. Also: "Sometimes to be someone’s guardian angel, you must also be the devil on their shoulder. Put differently: Maybe guidance looks like temptation in a world where doing what’s expected isn’t the same as doing what’s right." This encapsulates what I like about Brennan's storytelling perfectly. His characters always have such a clear, sharp, specific ethical framework that describes how they view and relate to the status quo of the world around them. Even when it's just a little fox.
Brandon Carbaugh
2023-08-24 23:13:07 +0000 UTConce in a lifetime being on the fox playlist 🥲
Karl Schmarl
2023-08-24 23:07:34 +0000 UTCI was so hoping to see the fox by nickel Creek on here! This vibe is so fun and playful and somewhat disturbing at the same time. https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=WcktWbZgv3U&si=JtGA_I0MfV7eoJ3d
Sarah Sutton
2023-08-24 23:00:11 +0000 UTCAny chance we can get these playlists not on Spotify?
Rob Macdonald
2023-08-24 22:33:51 +0000 UTCWow, Ame's playlist is nothing but bangers. Amazing! Love the vibe :)
Thursday
2023-08-24 22:08:14 +0000 UTCDearest WBN, thank you! I am but a silly lil forest critter ((not the actual play kind but rather little critter crica: "just go to bed" or "just so mad" )) in the big hooman scape metropolis of Denver. A safe refuge for the aloudly queer and oh so audaciously autistic, but not so much a vibe for truest part of myself that would prefers singing to trees naked in the moonlit on warm rainy nights bc it would rude of me to leave them without accompaniment for such a grand occasion. These Playlist and the linear notes truly touched my soul in a deep, you burnt this cd for me and you def want it back so of course I'll listen to it while painting sets grey again for one act play competition. I'm really going through it rn~☆ but nothing is as heavy as hard work without the right jams. I mean this in the best possible way. If real life was a movie this cast and crew of WBN would be the staff of Empire Records. Damn the man! Save the Empire!

2023-08-24 22:04:58 +0000 UTCThe fox's playlist really cracked the bad mood I have been in the last couple days.

Glitterbounce
2023-08-24 21:54:55 +0000 UTCWhy did I never think to search for the Court Jester soundtrack on Spotify?! Thank you for indirectly bringing "I'll Take You Dreaming" back within arm's reach Brennan, for emergencies.
Doctor Quixote
2023-08-24 21:41:33 +0000 UTCThe Fox being a fan of My Way is just a notch beyond chef's kiss. Playing over a montage of his favorite food escapades, like that time he got a whole bass.
mguin
2023-08-24 21:23:28 +0000 UTCYes! Or Taylor's version of the world/setting playlist, maybe?
mguin
2023-08-24 21:22:14 +0000 UTCI knew I'd like Ame's playlist & I was not disappointed

2023-08-24 21:13:23 +0000 UTCHell yea Erika I love Katzenjammer never thought I’d come across them randomly
Thomas Hegarty
2023-08-24 21:07:54 +0000 UTCMan these are so good. I would love a Playlist prompt that's kind of like what each character thinks of another character (ie Ame makes a Playlist representing her Ideas of Suvi, Suvi's thoughts of Ursulon, etc.). I just love a Playlist, guys. Great job!
Katie P.
2023-08-24 21:06:31 +0000 UTCBrennan shouting out David Byrne in the liner notes for a playlist about a lil guy on a D&D show… this is peak autistic joy. Autism lasers are firing out of my eyeballs tonight
Elly Wade
2023-08-24 20:52:40 +0000 UTCI pressed play before looking at the first song on the Fox playlist and I've never loved to hate anything more
Jackaloop
2023-08-24 20:46:50 +0000 UTCThe amount of explosive delight I felt when I saw "Never Outfox the Fox" on this playlist!!! Everyone please go watch "The Court Jester" it's what this song is from and one of my favorite movies. 🥰
Krisse S
2023-08-24 20:22:12 +0000 UTCthe Fox listening to Sinatra definitely checks out
Jay
2023-08-24 20:20:12 +0000 UTC"A beautiful cry for help" is the most accurate description of good poetry I have ever heard. As Brennan would say, "INCREDIBLE."
Emmalene Rupp
2023-08-24 20:18:29 +0000 UTCThe Fox would listen to "What Does the Fox Say" and rebel so hard against the lyrics of that song. "I've never said any one of those words!"
