I don’t know, I just like fruit. I excluded songs whose titles don’t actually reference the fruit, in its fruit form (so, “orange sky,” “lemonade,” and “cherry pie” were all out). I only chose fruit that could be represented by an emoji (sorry, grapefruit, cantaloupe, and peacherine). For each fruit, I picked up to 3 song(s) fitting those criteria, and here we are.
Also, I will say, I played this as a party mix and it was relatively successful if a bit weird. Go forth and experiment, my dear fruits and fruit-lovers.
