Obama's campaign playlist

Back in February, Obama released his campaign playlist. So in honour of his win in last night's election, here is that selection again.

The 29-song playlist offers up a wide variety of genres, from ELO and Al Green (no surprise, given this recent performance) all the way through to Wilco and Jennifer Hudson.

While we're not suggesting that he won on the strength on his playlist, the variety of music helps him cross off different pockets of voters with a selection of country songs (Sugarland, Zac Brown Band) for the traditional voters and something a bit alternative for the cool kids (Florence & The Machine, Arcade Fire).

We're assuming he has a premium account...
