Monthly Playlist
- Compiled by Mair


"A bit of earth,
She wants a little bit of earth.
She'll plant some seeds.
The seeds will grow,
The flowers bloom,
But is their bounty
What she needs?"*


Whether your greenery is in a garden, a forest, a greenhouse, or a meadow, we're focusing on plants and Herbology this month in SOUP. Music is certainly not immune to the magic of flora, and our writers have outdone themselves finding the best of the best!

We have a lush profusion of songs waiting for you in this month's playlist. Come on in, pick a lovely bouquet of melodies and settle in to enjoy the rest of your reading pleasure, perhaps with your back against a sturdy tree!

The format is easy. It's listed in this order: song - artist - SOUPer who submitted the song.
