One song every week
CLAP HANDS -- Most of the times I'm listening to TOM WAITS album 'Rain Dogs', I start drifting away and get lost in my thoughts. He manages to create feelings and paint pictures with strange music and even stranger lyrics.
But sometimes my thoughts get more technical: How do you compose such songs?
Especially since this album was recorded around 1985. There were no laptops available, which let you record and edit infinite tracks. Take you're time and cherish this piece of art. #music #tomwaits
BOB -- This is a personal one. Around 22 Years ago a classmate of mine introduced me to the song "Bob" by NOFX. This song was a peek into the DIY music world, which led to 22 years full of music, friends and doing stuff without worrying if I'm "good" at it. Thanks to everyone playing in a band, organizing concerts, making fanzines and everything else needed to keep DIY music alive ❤️ #music #nofx #punk #diy
WHY CAN'T I BE YOU -- One of those songs again, that can be played in literally any situation. The party people, the hipster, the regular people... Everybody will love this song. Some for the music some for the lyrics. THE CURE creates the perfect combination of both. Enjoy!

WE LIVE HERE -- Finally a spark of live in the long dead punk genre! BOB VYLAN, the two piece combo from London, deliver an exciting mix of punk and rap. Nothing revolutionary, but the sheer amount of energy, anger and skill makes BOB VYLAN stand out.
Hopefully paving the way for more to come! #music #onesong #bobvylan #punk #rap #grime
THE GIRL FROM IPANEMA -- Ever been sad, happy, lazy, focused or relaxed?
No matter the feelings chances are high, that THE GIRL FROM IPANEMA is the perfect soundtrack...
Astrud and João Gilberto recorded this masterpiece with Stan Getz in 1963, putting Bossa Nova on the map outside of Brazil.
Thanks a lot! #music #onesong
TIME TRADES -- From all the millions of songs about using your time right and do something with it. This one is my absolute favorite. JEFFREY LEWIS has a charming and unpretentious way to remind you to trade your time more decently. Effortless story telling is definitely one of JEFFREY LEWIS strengths. And because he is active since 2001, there are several mire brilliant sings in his discography. Take your time and Enjoy! #music #songwriter
PHANTOGRAM aren't exactly what you would call a small underground band, given the 5,7Million monthly listeners on Spotify. Yet I have never heard of them until Daniel Suarez mentioned WHEN I'M SMALL in his great Book "Delta V". Time to jump on the bandwagon!
Post Punk with electronic Beats. Sounds like growing up with the Cardigans, Garbage and No Doubt, wasting your teenage days at electronic music festivals and starting a band in your late twenties to avoid a real job. Awesome! #music

SPITE OF OURSELVES. Viagra Boys team up with Amy - from Amyl and the Sniffers - on this duet, to pay tribute to John Prine... And they do it in a spectacular fashion. It Sounds like John wrote this Song to be performed by Amy and the Viagra Boys. Which is a testament to the musical ability of the Viagra Boys, as well as the spotless songwriting of John Prine. Thanks for this Gem!

You should also check some original Viagra Boys songs, like CREATURES and PUNK ROCK LOSER #music #viagraboys

Cuz I Love You -- Joshua Ray Walker from Dallas opens the doors to another world of Country music. Far from stereotypes of the simple redneck ranchhand. With songs like SEXY AFTER DARK or VOICES Joshua delivers intelligent, emotional storytelling with an incredible voice and great musical taste.
But the Lizzo cover CUZ I LOVE YOU is just pure, perfectly delivered fun! Enjoy.
