Big Thief / Mary (2017)
A slow unfurling spell, heavy with nostalgia and sweetness.
Each word drifts in a wave of reverie, blurred yet piercing, as if memory itself were singing.
Intimate, infinite, and utterly haunting.

I’d take care of you
If you’d ask me to
In a year or two

Gram Parsons / Grevious Angel (1974)
But he was just a country boy
His simple songs confess
And the music he had in him
So very few possess

Jesse Malin - Brooklyn (2002)
The last car on the line
I guess you’re back doing time
The ghost of Christmas past
Left Walt Whitman in the trash

The 1975 - A Brief Enquiry into Online Relationships (2018)
The ambitious third album by The 1975 was a sprawling LP of existential dread. A masterclass in genre-hopping, it took a thoughtful look at how the internet distances us from one another.
Van Morrison / Astral Weeks (1968)
I Am Kloot / Ferris Wheels (2007)
I don’t know who I am
I don’t know who you are
But when I touch your hand
I see shooting stars
I see ferris wheels

The Smiths / Please, Please, Please, Let Me Get What I Want (1984)
Haven’t had a dream in a long time
See the life I’ve had can make a good man bad
So, for once in my life, let me get what I want
Lord knows it would be the first time
