ANNA: Playlist

Visit my 8track page to listen to the official Anna and the French Kiss playlist!

My full playlist is around one hundred tracks, but the following fifteen are its soul. These songs are presented in the approximate order of the events of the novel. Often, it wasn’t even the lyrics that struck something inside of me. It was the feel of the song.

The playlist is entirely European with nearly half of the selections written and performed by French musicians, though several are sung in English (as is common in French rock).

To learn why I made these selections, please visit my spoilers page.
