Playlist: It’s a Celebration

Andy Shore Andy Shore found his way to Benchmark when he replied to a job listing promising a job of half blogging, half social media. His parents still don’t believe that people get paid to do that. Since then, he’s spun his addiction to pop culture and passion for music into business and marketing posts that are the spoonful of sugar that helps the lessons go down. As the result of his boss not knowing whether or not to take him seriously, he also created the web series Ask Andy, which stars a cartoon version of himself. Despite being a cartoon, he somehow manages to be taken seriously by many of his readers ... and few of his coworkers.

This past weekend, I was in Chicago to celebrate the wedding of one of my best friends from junior high and high school. He and his now wife asked me to create the playlist for their after party (I guess my “All Work & No Playlist?” column is getting a bit of a reputation). It was an incredible, beautiful wedding and a ton of fun. We all work hard to get where we are in both business and our personal lives. It’s what makes the celebrations all the more special. Here’s a taste of the playlist for your celebrations big or small.

“One More Time” – Daft Punk
“I Wanna Dance with Somebody (Who Loves Me)” – Whitney Houston
“Drunk in Love” – Beyonce f. Jay Z
“P.Y.T. (Pretty Young Thing)” – Michael Jackson
“Raise Your Glass” – P!nk
“All Night” – Icona Pop
“Don’t Stop The Music” – Rihanna (Jody den Broeder Remix)
“Come Alive” – Chromeo f. Toro Y Moi
“Somebody Loves You” – Betty Who
“Hangover” – Taio Cruz (Hardwell Remix)
