Apple Music buries a 60-hour playlist inside Widow’s Bay

Apple Music’s Patricia’s Sunset Cocktails Playlist—tied to the world of Widow’s Bay—packs 811 songs for a total of 60 hours and 32 minutes. That runtime stretches to nearly 10 times longer than the show’s entire first season.
A show can be finished in an evening. A playlist like this one can’t.
Apple Music has published Patricia’s Sunset Cocktails Playlist, a collection inspired by the world of Widow’s Bay. The playlist page doesn’t prominently advertise how big it is. but scrolling to the bottom reveals the full size: 811 songs. totaling 60 hours and 32 minutes in the US version of Apple Music.
Widow’s Bay is a small coastal town story where residents get tangled in strange events and long-buried secrets. Patricia’s bar is one of the community’s gathering places, and the playlist leans into that same atmosphere.
The tracklist pulls from a wide range of artists, including David Bowie, Donna Summer, Pat Benatar, Kylie Minogue, Kim Wilde, Pulp, Talk Talk, and Erasure. The mix spans decades of pop, rock, dance, and new wave music—an intentional stretch across eras, not a quick mood-setter.
That’s where the timing really lands. The first season of Widow’s Bay has 10 episodes, with most running between 37 and 41 minutes. The entire season therefore clocks in at roughly 370 to 410 minutes—about six to seven hours.
Patricia’s Sunset Cocktails Playlist, at 60 hours and 32 minutes, runs nearly 10 times longer than the first season. A viewer could finish every episode of Widow’s Bay and still have more than two full days of music left before reaching the end of the playlist. Even multiple trips through the season wouldn’t come close to matching the playlist’s runtime.
Apple Music regularly publishes playlists tied to artists, genres, moods, and original programming. Patricia’s Sunset Cocktails Playlist stands out for its sheer size. offering far more listening time than the series provides viewing time. For listeners who want to stay in the show’s world after the credits roll. the playlist can continue playing long after the season finale ends.

811 songs for 60 hours?? That’s like a whole other season of something lol.
Wait so Apple hid the playlist size? Like you gotta scroll forever to see it’s 60 hours. Kinda annoying but also kinda genius.
Not gonna lie, I thought Widow’s Bay was a real place and this is like a tourism playlist. If it’s tied to a show, then why not just make it shorter? 60 hours is insane. I’m guessing it’s some kind of glitch or auto-generated thing.
Bowie and Donna Summer on one playlist is good taste at least. But burying the runtime in the page is very Apple-y. I don’t know why they compare it to the episodes like… can you really “finish” a show in one evening anymore? Also 10 episodes?? that seems short.
