New music this week from Lights, Pink Skies, Mary and the Sharks, Suzanne Vega, Real Estate, Sparks, Say Sue Me, Mammoth, Home Free, Grouplove, Lucius, a new mix of an old REM song for a grand purpose, Hikaru Utada and much more. Enjoy!
A lot of music this week defies stereotypes of what you might expect from an artist. Suzanne Vega laying down a groove? Utada Hikaru returns to singing but in English and Japanese? New (sort of) music from R.E.M.? The Doobie Brothers heading towards Country? There's a lot of this going on.
It's also worth pointing out that the new album by Lights is bloody fantastic. I added 4 songs from that album to the rotation. Artist J Appiah really surprised me with his new single. I haven't thought much of him before but I need to seriously reassess that. The new album from Ben Williams is also a solid knockout even if much of it isn't the sort of thing you would catch on radio.

I think it's about goddamned time to fully boycott Isreal. Especially if they do this.
The new/old guy keeps losing in court, but he hasn't complied with a single ruling regarding deportations yet. Please, start throwing these assholes in prison for Contempt.
Oh, and happy Cinco de Mayo. If you support these deportations you aren't entitled to that beer in your hand. Put it away before I take it from you.
It looks like Government supported COVID shots are going bye-bye. I hope you still have a few masks left. I'm stocking up. I'd bet real money that Flu shots are next.
Followed by a huge spike in COVID cases in the fall, which they will call "seasonal".
Did you know that the new/old guy wanted to be a filmmaker when he was younger? I met him once, when I was in Television, and even I didn't know that.
As if $1,000 was a lot of money. Add 3 zeroes to it and I'd consider it.
In case you didn't notice it, the woman who won the Pulitzer for cartoon of the year was forced out of her newspaper job earlier this year because the newspaper she worked for wouldn't let her make fun of the head of Amazon. The Washington Post, her former employer, tried to take credit for her win. I also note that in giving her the award, the Pulitzer committee made sure to point out that she won in part because of her departure from the WaPo.
And because I love you, let's take a quick trip down memory lane with Level 42
