President Obama released a playlist for Inauguration Day

The president’s second term starts next week, and he’s released a 17-song playlist on Spotify in order to celebrate it.  Included in it are Alicia Keys, Smokey Robinson, Brad Paisley and Stevie Wonder.  Not bad.  The one complaint I have is that he included “The Edge of Glory” by the Glee Cast, and not the far superior original.  You can hear the playlist here, and view the playlist below.
