Friday Playlist
“You Gave Me the Key” - Julie Doiron A bright, sassy, fun song. Perfect for summer!
“She Still Leads Me On” - The London Suede The London Suede had one great song in the ’90s (“The Drowners”), a lot of hype, and not much else. At least here in the US. So this brand new song from them floored me. I never would have expected them to make a song this good 30 years after their brief moment of international success.
“Way I Go” - Gordi I haven’t listened to much of Gordi’s music. Although last year, her duet with Alex Lahey, “Dino’s,” landed on my Favorite Songs of the Year list. Apparently she’s also a medical doctor. Should I ask my wife why she’s not recording music in addition to her medical responsibilities?
“Window” - Dehd Dehd’s new album, Blue Skies, got really good reviews. I only liked a couple of the songs; most of those shared this general vibe.
“Summer Breeze” - Seals and Crofts RIP to Jim Seals, who died this week at age 80.
“Wet Dream” - Harry Styles covering Wet Leg The moment when my musical interests collide with M’s. Harry’s pants crack me up.
