Sunday Music: Playlisting Every Sunday Music in 2025

The entire Cultish Creative / Personal Archive idea is based on the habit of getting inspired. Music is… just one of those things for me. It’s always been in my life, it’s always moved me, and, as is too often the case, as I got older it got easier to forget how inspirational it is for me. My Sunday Music posts are a method of keeping that habit alive. not one Sunday goes by that I don’t feel happy I made room for this specific habit.

Take this as a discipline disguised as joy. Take this as a way I’ve learned, in my 30s and into my 40s (well into my 40s, sheesh) that I make sure I still listen to music carefully, wonder out loud about what it’s trying to tell me, and look for the patterns across the rest of my life.

It should come as no surprise that I’ve got a year’s worth of posts to sift through as we come into year end. I wanted to do this before the holiday travel times so, if you’re so inclined, you can revisit the year with me, too. I find this infinitely more interesting (and accurate) than the “wrapped” features, but just the same,

Here’s your Spotify and Apple Music version of the playlist too if you want to play it along with the liner notes.

Below is every Sunday Music post from 2025, arranged chronologically. These are the songs, the artists, the moments that mattered to me this year. I've linked each one back to the original post so you can read the full context, the thinking behind the choice. Think of this as a map of what I listened to and why - a kind of personal archive of attention.
