YELLE - "Un jour viendra"

The day I find out there is a new Yelle album is always going to be a good day. I had to take action straight away. So here I am working at a computer, why not have some inspiration from Spotify, I'm sure everyone does the same. My first listen to Yelle's new album was an inspiration, to say the least - and the song that initially stood out was "Un jour viendra." Here is a rhetorical question "how much do I love that chorus?" The song of the summer... so far. Just don't ask me what it is about.

JJ - "All White Everything" (Official Video, Extended Version)

JJ are a Swedish band featuring Joakim Benon and Elin Kastlander. Their third album 'V' was released a couple of months ago. The first single from the album was "All White Everything", with an outstanding video to match. With so much great music available now at our fingertips, I'm so glad this one didn't slip under the radar.... Ja Ja!

Tweedy - "Low Key"

Jeff Tweedy, the main man from Wilco, has a new album out. It's not quite a solo album because he has teamed up with his son Spencer Tweedy, under the appropriate name 'Tweedy'. The album title 'Sukierae' comes from the nickname of Jeff's wife/Spencer's mother Sue Miller Tweedy. After about 20 years with Wilco, Jeff Tweedy has become a legend to some (like me) and unheard of to others, and this album won't make him a household name, because if it did, it wouldn't sound anything like it does. I'm probably not making sense at the moment so it must be time to check out the video for "Low Key" - it's dry humour at its best.
