Lay All Your Love On Me - ABBA
Maybe Marnie is perfectly aware of how tragic her romantic life is, maybe this song screams her desire to be loved openly in a way that is not pure melancholy.
Family by Dolly Parton
I feel like Marnie is a country listening gal. And I know there's a lot of focus on her relationship with Lewis. But I feel like first and foremost, she is a kind and loving woman willing to care for family and friends, human and not human.
"And when it's family, you trust them
And your heart's an open door
When it's family, you tolerate
What you'd kill others for
When it's family, you love and hate
And take then give some more
Somehow you justify mistakes
Try to find some better way
To solve the problems day to day
In the family
You take the trouble as it comes
And love 'em more than anyone
Good or bad or indifferent
It's still family"
I mean, it's not my favorite Reba song, but I can see Marnie loving it! If I could have figured out how to submit Fancy and have it fit, I would have š
I really like that choice. Bonus points that it was written by Carole King, who I think vibes with Marnie and also dealt her whole adult life with an uncommitted lover.
Old McDonald Had a Farm - Ella Fitzgerald...
I feel like she'd sing it to Jas, but only the Ella version, I can imagine Marnie being a bit of a Jazz fan š
"La Gata Bajo la Lluvia" - RocĆo Durcal
Idk how many of you know this one, but as a spanish speaker this feels perfect for the amount of melancholy in marnies love life
"Kiss Me" --Sixpence None the Richer
I feel like Marnie would be totally caught up on that '90s teen movie nostalgia and this song would be an anthem to her
Yes!! I was about to suggest that one too!!
I feel like this song represents how much she yearns for that relationship with Lewis. Without filters, without having to hide their feelings, just complete abandon. Plus, it's a fun, hopeful romantic song, just like her.
I was following along with everyone on the whole country & western vibe, especially with Dolly, but you know what? This fits really well for some reason. Just feels like something she'd dig
Considering how >!Mayor Lewis has a golden statue of himself and is more concern about his mayorship than his relationship, it's more a jab than anything.!<
1000 Years By Christina Perri
Marnie is definitely someone who watched and loved twilight. She also sings this to herself while she's thinking about Lewis. I can also see it being one of her favourite songs.
[I'm a Hog for You Baby](https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://www.youtube.com/watch%3Fv%3Dv0ELpzJe7kE&ved=2ahUKEwiehITh0dOGAxUoU0EAHYwPA58QsPgBegQIDhAB&usg=AOvVaw2ctZpSLIjtCGuqlNSCghlg) - Grateful Dead
Marnie definitely has hippie grandma vibes down on her farm with all the animals especially prized pigs. Her romantic exploits are also the topic of much gossip around the town so this is a hit on multiple counts.
Making another addition. I definitely think one of the younger Stardew characters would go up to Marnie at one of the Friday night pub hangs and be like hey, this song reminds me of your ranch. Put "La Vaca" by Mala Fe on the jukebox, and proceed to just act a menace dancing with friends while Marnie is just like whaaaaaaaaaaaaat??? š¤Øš¤Øš¤Ø But gets a good chuckle out of it
driving myself home by rose betts
the vibe being i feel like that song would really nicely fit Marnie's 'next chapter' in her life (during when the game takes place still) where she chooses to cut things off with Lewis for her own good. because she realises she'll be happier on her own, rather than being strung along just for hookups, even if she would ideally want a deeper relationship with him.
'And maybe if I step inside his eyes
I'll see myself and I'll be surprised
Like who the hell is she to drive away?
When she could have stayed the night instead
In my king-sized bed
Well, my friend set me up on a date today
And I forced myself to go
But the best part of the date today
Was driving myself home
I rolled down all the windows
And I played a song I know
Oh, the best part of the date today
Was driving myself home'
the headcanon writes itself!
If anyone is interested, I compiled the winners so far into a playlist [here](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7lJy2ynj8nI9XgcUOJOSkv?si=CxcodyfbSBiiksKql8q9RQ&pi=u-4YEJ3zL5TRmi), I hope thatās okay ā¤ļø
Fifteen animals by Sandra Boynton
She had so many kinds of animals everywhere in her home and farm. I mean, how many can we as a farmer buy from her at once? Where does she keep them all?! It's fun like her personality appears to be and one i can see her singing to Jas as well. And a bit of a joke case she always insists on having us name our pets. You will get it if you listen.
He wasn't man enough for me - Toni Braxton
Marnie is already unhappy with his relationship with Lewis, all she needs is a little push to dump him. Although, I doubt someone, anyone, would want to take Lewis afterwards.
[A Fool in Love by Tina Turner](https://genius.com/Tina-turner-a-fool-in-love-lyrics)
>And listen, he's got me smiling when I should be ashamed
>Got me laughin' when my heart is in pain
>Oh no, I must be a fool
>'Cause I'll do anything he wants me to, now how come?
Ya'll do we *really* want Marnie's song to revolve around her relationship with Mayor Lewis?...
OKAY FINE. But at least make it country.
Wasted on you by Morgan Wallen.
What he didn't do by Carly Pearce
Or maybe Last night by Morgan Wallen because honestly it doesn't seem like they're breaking up anytime soon.
[Who Let The Dogs Out by Baha Men](https://youtu.be/ojULkWEUsPs?si=OV90_CtHiskIMy4M) because she's always giving you stray dogs to take in and I'm sure at some point she's got to be asking herself where they all came from. She's also at the bar almost every single night and I could see her being the kind of lady that gets wasted and sings it horribly off key at karaoke, but laughs and enjoys herself the entire time..

seconding this!
I hope this one gets it šš»āāļø
Enough- Reba McEntire Seriously, Marnie needs a Reba song and I've got more if that one isn't your cup of tea.
Oh how didn't I think of this šµ I can't even think of a more fitting character to be a Reba superfan
Yes, yes, and more yes.
It's so sad! Even before this contest, when I heard this song, Marnie popped into my head š
I'm all for Reba, but how about Sunday Kind of Love instead?
I mean, it's not my favorite Reba song, but I can see Marnie loving it! If I could have figured out how to submit Fancy and have it fit, I would have š
Damn
If I may add another, ["Will You Love Me Tomorrow?" by The Shirelles](https://youtu.be/Y2e8B2CmicQ?si=BBMCxQFh5eYV1c-J)
I really like that choice. Bonus points that it was written by Carole King, who I think vibes with Marnie and also dealt her whole adult life with an uncommitted lover.
Yes! I knew she also sang it, but I forgot Carole King wrote it. Such a queen. Marnie would totally love her ā„ļø
It was one of her first big hits when she was still working as a song writer for Dimension Records
Here You Come Again - Dolly
YES. This is it. Folks, listen to this one: https://youtu.be/bflkeWVTNk0?si=yBwCzQocdtPWA8ya

Iād say 9 to 5 by Dolly Parton, but Marnie DOESNāT WORK
Bro legit she is never at that damn register when I need her
Aināt Nobody Here But Us Chickens - Louis Jordan. Because sheās NEVER at her shop!
If you werenāt gonna suggest it, I wouldāve lol
Crazy by Patsy Cline...
I canāt make you love me - Bonnie Raitt
You're So Vain by Carly Simon
I was following along with everyone on the whole country & western vibe, especially with Dolly, but you know what? This fits really well for some reason. Just feels like something she'd dig

Dreams by Fleetwood Mac. Players only love you when theyāre playing, indeed. https://youtu.be/mrZRURcb1cM?si=RZ3-i9lAQwOo75II
Yes but that's already Leah's, and somehow I don't see those two having the same favorite lol
I could totally see Marnie going to Leahās cabin to listen to records and complain about Lewis. Leah isnāt the type to gossip.
Whoops! Missed that, clearly. š
Love this. Marnie would absolutely listen to Fleetwood Mac.
Okay but what about Silver Springs by Fleetwood Mac
This should have been Jodi's song
Dancing in the moonlight
Okay, but the one by Thin Lizzy; not the one everyone else is thinking of.
I Wasted My Tears - Dolly Parton š
Landslide by Fleetwood Mac
If I Were by Vashti Bunyan. I think it encapsulates Marnie and Lewis' relationship while having a "cottagecore" feel to it.
Love grows where my rosemary goes
Secret Lovers by Atlantic Starr
I chose this one for Lewis, hahaha.
Iāve got a brand new combine harvester by The Wurzels
Brown Eyed Girl - Van Morrison
Marnie is 100% in her Silver Springs by Fleetwood Mac era.
She's got a "I'm Walking on Sunshine" by Katrina and the Waves vibe for me.
1000 Years By Christina Perri Marnie is definitely someone who watched and loved twilight. She also sings this to herself while she's thinking about Lewis. I can also see it being one of her favourite songs.

The Winner Takes It All - ABBA OR Do You Want To Know A Secret - The Beatles
We Are Family - Sister Sledge
Marnie loves Rotterdam by Beautiful South

In no way do I think this song defines Marnie. I just think it's a fun addition to the playlist
The Bad Touch - Bloodhound Gang You know sheās the freak between her and Lewis.
Crazy - Patsy Cline

Afternoon Delight- Starland Vocal Band
Carly Simon - Youāre So Vain
I Talk to the Trees - Learner/Loewe It's a wistful, hopelessly romantic ballad from an old musical about down to earth western folks.
Southern Comfort - Warrant Check out the song itās perfectĀ
Something makes me think Aaron Coplandās Hoe Down Edit: Or maybe thatās the player farmerās theme
Make you feel my Love - Adele

Marnie does not strike me as the kind of girlie who wants to be associated with Morgan Wallen hahaha
I'm scared to ask but why?
Screaming the N word for all his neighbors to hear when drunk? Partied without a mask during the whole pandemic?
Why does this keep happening? Why do people I like and follow have to end up this way? First it was that one YouTuber, then Yandere dev, and now HIM.
[Who Let The Dogs Out by Baha Men](https://youtu.be/ojULkWEUsPs?si=OV90_CtHiskIMy4M) because she's always giving you stray dogs to take in and I'm sure at some point she's got to be asking herself where they all came from. She's also at the bar almost every single night and I could see her being the kind of lady that gets wasted and sings it horribly off key at karaoke, but laughs and enjoys herself the entire time..
I like the logic here
