Hello, everyone! As you already know, creating playlists with music mentioned in novels is one of my favourite things. So, whenever I come across a book that has a couple of references, I'm hoping that they would be enough to justify a playlist. As a rule of thumb, I only create playlists for books that have more than 10 songs mentioned in them.
So, I was more than happy to discover that Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine qualified for a Play(list) by the Book. I wouldn't say that this playlist has a consistent theme, but it is rather sort and enjoyable.
As per usual, I have included all the songs and artists mentioned in the text. The songs mentioned in Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine were a few, and so, I mostly had to choose the ones I preferred for each artist. I found it interesting that Eleanor mentioned a lot of musical composers, and for this reason, you will some musical pieces in the playlist.
At first, I hesitated to include Michael Jackson in the playlist, as he is not clearly mentioned. You see, in that scene, Eleanor is wearing some white gloves and her colleagues make fun of her by imitating moon walk. I ended up including a song though, as at least to me, the reference was clear enough.
