1. Genuinely shocked to realize this is first appearing in this list; feels like it’s been around for longer than that. I absolutely love this song, for the record. Also, its wikipedia page is great – there’s a whole section of music theory nerdery. ↩
2. Angel has been in my lists since July of 2019, and I’m Worried About You feels like a strong contender to take its place. ↩
3. This is one of those songs that feels a little different every time I listen to it. The other day I listened to it with headphones in and the volume up high for the first time, and there was a whole other bass line that I hadn’t noticed before. I love stuff like that. ↩
4. 28 years. Dang. ↩
5. Between Amends and Daisy we’re thoroughly over-quota on upsetting album art. ↩
6. I haven’t watched the documentary yet, but it’s on my list. ↩
7. In the past few months, Apple got rid of their “search Apple Music” tool and replaced it with “search All The Apple Stores.” Which is, usually, annoying, because the search isn’t paginated and only returns so many results, so occasionally finding a song is very difficult because the song doesn’t make it into the results ahead of a bunch of TV shows or whatever. This time, I had to keep trying different search terms, because I kept getting bodice-rippers from the iBook Store. ↩
