One Of Coventry’s Finest Sons Has Left Us
Introduction Terry Hall died aged 63 after a short illness, two years younger than me. I first came across Terry as lead singer with the multi cultural Two Tone ska band The Specials with their EP "Too Much Too Young", the title track being a superb social commentary for the time.

30 Great Songs of Donna Summer. Top Story - December 2022.
Donna Summer achieved major success throughout her career. She made it into the Top 10 with 14 songs in the US and has sold more than 100 million albums worldwide. To this day her albums still sell about 1.5 million copies per year every year and her fan base is as strong and fervent as it was in the 1970s. I love Donna Summer. Her voice was amazing. I would go so far as to call her one of the greatest vocalists of all-time.

This is NOT Bruce Springsteen
Introduction That is of course not true, this is a Bruce Springsteen playlist and we know how many great songs he has written but these are performances of songs that he has NOT written and was prompted by me accidentally coming across his live cover of Frank Wilson’s “Do I Love You (Indeed I Do)” which, in my opinion, outdoes the original, and that is one of my favourite records ever. It appears on his soul covers album “Only The Strong Survive” released this year, and though my playlist opens with that song I thought it would be good to dig up some of his other covers for you to enjoy.

Polymath Actor, Recording Artist, and Filmmaker Amir Royale Releases His ‘Stories of the Lost, Rich & Tormented’ EP
From Amir Royale Sophomore year, NYU Tisch’s Clive Davis Institute, 2017. I created the concept of Stories of the Lost, Rich & Tormented as a "Writing the Hit Song: Deep Cutz" homework assignment. Over the course of 14 weeks, I crafted and reworked about 12 or so ideas. Suddenly, my songwriting professor at the time (Eren Cannata of Cove City Sound Studios, Facethouse Records & Warner Chapel Music), directed us to use all the content we created thus far to formulate an EP. This project would then become one we’d pitch and present to potential A&R scouts. It was our final project. I curated 5 of my best records across the class to showcase a conceptual narrative and description of greed, lust, and youth insecurity within American culture. It is the final entry within my four-EP-long music chronicle (dating back to my 2015 EP, This Is for You.). To let this project go free finally—feels like a blessing. Thank you.

Oh No It's Michael Bublé
Introduction and Background You may think this is because I don’t appreciate Michael Bublé but you would be wrong. Last week I was in the Talbot Arms in Settle and they were playing a Michael Bublé Christmas album and every song sounded like it had had all the life sucked out of it by a lounge jazz vampire, and that lounge jazz vampire’s name is Michael Bublé.

The 3 Most Relevant Artists Of The 1990s In 2021 And Beyond
On the off chance that you're a 90s kid, you might recollect it as a period of unimaginable melodic variety. As groups confronted developing strain to do something else to remain 'pertinent', the class started to fan out. Where heavier music during the 80s generally comprised of exemplary rock'n'roll and troublemaker, presently grit, elective stone, modern, and metal came to the front.

Top 4 Underrated Michael Jackson songs
Michael Jackson was one of the first musicians I listened to before I even knew it was Michael Jackson. My first introduction to him was on Rockin With The Chipmunks, two of his songs were included to showcase the 1980s. I would watch that VHS tape over and over during my stays at the hospital when I had leukemia as a tot. I never knew how much I enjoyed Michael Jackson's songs as a toddler when my grandmother would tell me I would dance around despite the wires on me.

The Angels - Symphony Of Angels Concert (Review)
Anyone who knows me well, knows that my favourite musical band is, and has always been, The Angels. I was I guess, one of their top groupies back in the day. I followed them from pub to pub, gig to gig and never missed a show back in the 1980’s.

Keith Urban - The Speed Of Now Concert (Review)
Friday 2 December 2022 finally arrived and I had my concert ticket in my hot little hand. This day has been a long time coming. I purchased this ticket in 2020 for the concert of a lifetime in December 2020. But December 2020 did not go to plan.

Songs A Cappella
Introduction A cappella is Italian for ''in the style of the chapel''. Music is a performance by a singer or a singing group without instrumental accompaniment, or a piece intended to be performed in this way. The term a cappella was originally intended to differentiate between Renaissance polyphony and Baroque concertato musical styles. In the 19th century, a renewed interest in Renaissance polyphony, coupled with an ignorance of the fact that vocal parts were often doubled by instrumentalists, led to the term coming to mean unaccompanied vocal music.
