Five noteworthy tunes heard today:
KDHX 88.1 FM
- No Meu Pais-Dom La Nena (The piano intro, which reminds me of Joe Jackson's "Down To London," primed me to enjoy this melancholy-sounding number about appreciating the place where you grew up.)
- As Asas Sao Escadas pra Voar-Barbara Eugenia & Tata Aeroplano (An approximation of how Neil Finn or 7 Worlds Collide might sound performing an acoustic voice-and-guitar tune in Portuguese.)
WSIE 88.7 FM
- Lavish-Alex Parchment featuring Jordan Love (A steady, driving trumpet groove reminiscent of Parchment's 2020 track, "Vibin' In Time.")
- Little Paradise-Eliane Elias (A pleasant slow number with thoughtful lyrics about not taking the positive everyday aspects of being with someone for granted.)
KEZK 102.5 FM
- Our House-Madness (Even after hundreds of plays, the opening swoosh of this 1983 hit draws me right in. Perfectly coordinated vocals and horns coalesce around a strong hook. Well-sung, well-played, and well-produced.)
