    Well if you can't write new Christmas classics, you can always improve upon the old ones: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rMKFRQwkBS8

    The whole solar system sounds like a bit of a minefield really if 70s strong-selling songsters are to be believed.

    SvN with McCartney lyrics then Jimmy with Rocketman by Elton, although I prefer the William Shatner cover.

    Destiny's Child too and I include the Run DMC tracks in the recent category as they were ignored over here until recently. There are some others too but cba to check my playlist.

    Performing with your own accent when you're from the East Midlands is certainly a choice.

    This track with Jason from Sleaford Mods is probably up your street, Don.

    Quality, there's a Jools Holland vid of them that delivered too. I need to go through their back catalogue after I check out the new album.

    I find them pretty annoying for the most part. There was a song they played on 6 last year or the year before that was awful. The chorus was Jason saying 'ohhhh no, ohhhh no, ohhh no' over and over. I don't know the name, but it definitely wasn't for me. That Mork and Mindy track is alright though.

    "Job-See-Kuh!"?

    That is a great tune and performance of said tune, to be fair.

    Anyone into Big Thief - the lead singer Adrianne Lenker has released quite a few pieces over the last year. Mostly acoustic stuff. Her solo output is fantastic.

    Phoebe Bridges is another recommendation. One of the albums of the year for 2020.

    Is Taz experiencing a brexit-means-brexit nu-chav reawakening? I wouldn't begrudge it.

    I see the hot lefty feminists on twitter constantly going on about that Phoebe Bridgers album, it sounds up my street but the last time I listened to these cretins was that extremely hyped up album last year from a similar slag which bored me.

    The airy-voiced acoustic women singer-songwriters sending gallons of carbon dioxide down the mic can go either way. Most of them go the wrong way covering Leonard Cohen or whatever, but the best 5% who understand melody and the timbre of the instrument next to their voice are the absolute dog's bollocks.

    On the subject of music for place and time, I forever associate DJ Shadow's Endtroducing with working the night shift. If I'm ever walking home after a night out, Midnight in a Perfect World is on.

    In doing panicked last minute research for my dorky album club best of 2020 special edition (we all had to nominate our three favourite tracks of the year), which was basically listening to multiple BEST OF lists while working, I discovered JPEGMAFIA. He's pretty good, I like him. The mixture of weird, deliberately unsettling production, self-deprecating comments about his baldness (including a song literally called "BALD!") and constant references to wrestling was always going to appeal to me though I guess.

    Big Thief was someone's recommendation in this thread, which I'm eternally grateful for. I bought tickets to see them in May 2020, but Covid saw them postpone until March 2021. Now they've cancelled altogether, which is a shame.

    Phoebe Bridges ticks all the boxes of what I generally like in music, but I just find her stuff a bit too boring.
    This is good though

    Thanks for this. Had a listen to 'songs' yesterday. A little samey but enjoyable and, as you said, January-appropriate.

    Re: Fiona Apple, I thought last year's album was great. Probably my favourite of the year ahead of Laura Marling's.

    Anyone here into Moses Sumney? I’ve just discovered his work. His latest album Grae is something else. I’m talking James Blake meets Frank Ocean. Requires a few deep listens but this is the standout track, along with Polly.

    The video is so good too.

    I came across him as Radio 6 played a song and I wondered why I'd never heard that TV On The Radio track.

    Phoebe Bridgers album from last year was amazing, but I actually like the side-project she had 2 years ago even more:

    I don't know how you mans are doing it with the emotional indie stuff currently, that Moses Sumney vid sent me west. Even the uplifting stuff I'm just numb to. The safety net of beats and vibes are all I have remaining before I succumb to a backing track of Chopin.

    That Sleaford Mods album was average stuff beside that track.

    *Searching Sumney on Spotify has got me bashing out some Moses Boyd now though

    Of the 3 tracks I've heard previously, they're all bangers so can't wait till after work to bang it on.

    We need that Whatchya Listening To thread culled.

    Puma Blue EP. 20 mins long. Don't think I'd heard of him/her/they before. It bangs.

    Fucking hell, that's brought scenes in Don towers. I tuned in just as the mix ended and she was reading the texts. I'll stick it on now.

    Not quite the same field but liked this off Nemone's show last week:

    Mogwai's new one was also out today. It's alright. Might be a slow burn.
