Does size matter?
Does size matter? Am I critiquing an actual work here? Nope. Just expressing a thought. How big should a link be at the end of an article? I often like my pics for covers, because some Unsplash images make links too large when linked at the bottom of an article.

Ethereal Symphony
In this captivating artwork, luminous strokes dance gracefully, forming a breathtaking play of light. Yet, while composition echoes brilliance, an opportunity for deeper narrative connection arises. By intertwining thematic elements, this symphony could evoke profound emotions, ensuring lasting resonance in the observer's heart.

Rich Men North of Richmond
Times must be tough in the music business South of Richmond. No competent guitarists, singers, or lyricists, no barber to trim an unkempt beard. Childish guitar, weak melody, nonsensical message. Candy-eating welfare recipients starve morally superior drinking southern workers? Really? Old soul? Hasn't learned much. Makes true conservatives seem ridiculous.

A Light for Attracting Attention
This album is a work of art, a breath of fresh air, a smile. In running from the popularity cage that was their exhausted setlist, Thom and Jonny have created beautiful noise once again. Along with Tom Skinner’s light touch, The Smile will spend no time in the Radiohead shadow.

We Are Golden
When chaos wreaks havoc on my mind, and fear crushes my veins, Mika's We Are Golden serves as the musical antidote for my Bipolar. Strong, vibrant, and messy, this song catapults me out of my headspace, reminding me to embrace the quirky wonder of my imperfections and to keep living.

OK Computer By Radiohead (1997)
OK Computer saw a reasonably good, if pedestrian, jangly guitar-based band from Oxford turn into one of the most continuously inventive bands of our modern times. That they don't sound the same as that album nowadays is testimony to their boundary and envelope-pushing intentions. It's still flawless, 25 years later.

Different Class by Pulp (1995)
Pulp showed they were in a Different Class from the rest of the so-called Britpop scene with this career-defining album. Jarvis Cocker's biting lyrics and heartfelt vocals about the social classes and life in general, backed by sweeping soundscapes with catchy choruses. Oasis Vs Blur was already lost to Pulp.
