Sean Lennon, “Into The Sun” (1998)

His first foray into the family business mostly went right by me…except for this song. I still love it.

Grimes, “Flesh Without Blood” (2015)

I know, I know. But this album is really good!

The Innocence Mission, “St. Paul” (2025)

Q: When, in the last three and a half decades, have the Innocence Mission not delivered?

A: Never.

The Go! Team, “The Scene Between” (2015)

Even I have a tendency to classify The Go! Team with the lazy “Saturday morning cartoons sugar high”, so it’s always a pleasant surprise when I’m reminded how tuneful they can be.

Anna Tivel, “White Goose” (2025)

I’m about to let loose with one of my favorite compliments: this is lovely.

DJ Sabrina The Teenage DJ, “Will My Love” (2025)

Sometimes, I need to be comfortable with the fact that I can’t explain why I like I song. I mean, I’m not going to be, but I need to be.

Supertramp, “Goodbye Stranger” (1979)

RIP Rick Davies. What a legacy on this one song alone.

Beach Bunny, “Year of the Optimist” (2025)

One of my favorite new trends in music releases is when bands release a really good album and then follow that up a few months later with a new song/single that’s even better.

Sondre Lerche, “Suffused With Love” (2002)

I loved this album when it came out, and when I listen again, I think maybe I didn’t love it enough at the time.

Tommy WÁ, “God Loves When You’re Dancing” (2025)

This sounds like something special.
