On Father John Misty, you should try Pure Comedy or When The God of Love Returns There’ll Be Hell to Pay for more of what people mean of his lyrical prowess

2025-02-13 22:56:25 +0000 UTCPC #53 Lover, You Should’ve Come Over by Jeff Buckley - one of the greatest songs I’ve ever heard! It was released in the late 90s and was part of Jeff’s first and last studio album, he drowned a few years later. The whole album “Grace” is worth listening to, but imo this is the best song on it

2025-02-10 01:48:44 +0000 UTCI saw FJM in concert and it was great because of how many genres he dabbles in. His set includes folk songs, rock socks, indie songs and jazz. He has always kind of reminded me of the male version of Lana in music. and makes sense they have song twos together!

2025-02-09 02:59:30 +0000 UTCZion is a perfect, powerful and moving song. Such a beautiful track.

2025-02-09 00:19:52 +0000 UTCLike a couple others have already suggested, I’m begging you guys to watch Chlöe x Halle’s tiny desk!! They’re both such talented musicians and Ungodly Hour is an (almost) perfect album. Chlöe produces most, if not all, of their songs together!
Kellie
2025-02-08 21:44:51 +0000 UTCRo James is great. I loved this song when it came out.
Mickey10 JB
2025-02-08 21:38:38 +0000 UTCYou should check out Chloe X Halle's Tiny Desk

2025-02-08 21:30:01 +0000 UTCLove it when a patron of ours discovers a new artist through a fellow patron this way. (dad)
The FrontRoom
2025-02-08 21:20:52 +0000 UTCPC 53: Zion by Lauryn Hill or Everything to Me by Monica.
Kenysha
2025-02-08 21:08:42 +0000 UTCWait!! I finished... AMAZING eclectic mix. I enjoyed ALL of those. I've just ordered some Samara Joy on vinyl. Great stuff! Ok, Kai, you said "maybe 2" suggestions so, my 2nd is another Janelle Monae song from her INCREDIBLE album "Dirty Computer" called "CRAZY, CLASSIC, LIFE". Janelle Monae is an important artist with a dope vibe and depth, that I think you'd appreciate.

2025-02-08 19:57:53 +0000 UTCOne In A Million is quintessential 90s R&B. It might not seem that special in the context of everything that's been reacted to here - but I can only imagine, it has influenced every contemporary R&B artist that came after.

2025-02-08 19:44:56 +0000 UTCPC 53: Sam Fender - Spit of You
John Shanley
2025-02-08 19:24:40 +0000 UTCYes!!!! Janelle Monet ❤️

PinkTater24
2025-02-08 16:44:21 +0000 UTCPC #53. Let's try a bit of country/rock! This song has super meaningful lyrics regarding their downfall from the top bc of their opposition to the Iraq War. They ended up sweeping the Grammys with this album :) The Chicks - Not Ready To Make Nice
Bdawg
2025-02-08 16:38:33 +0000 UTCPC #53: Aaliyah - One In A Million or If Your Girl Only Knew. Both songs were written by Missy Elliott and Timbaland. RIP Aaliyah

2025-02-08 15:27:04 +0000 UTCOooweee that Samara Joy was beautiful. Me and my wife are currently talking about sipping wine and painting while listening to her

2025-02-08 14:41:48 +0000 UTCThe Ro James sample was from Brother's Gonna Work It Out by Willie Hutch

2025-02-08 14:39:10 +0000 UTCLoved the variety this week. FJM’s lyrics often go over my head too, but I enjoy the abstraction—it frees the music from rigid narratives, making it more exciting. Have to agree with Dad, his melodies feel deeply rooted in ’60s/’70s influences, but I think he has since evolved to take influences from a wider net of genres, some modern, into a more distinct voice through experimentation. His songwriting is now uniquely modern, filled with sharp, satirical turns of phrase and conceptual scenes that feel specific to today. For a good example, you should check out the song Pure Comedy. Love that you did Black Pumas. I really wanted to you to do more (modern) “pyschadelic soul” b/c I think Dad would really enjoy it. (Michael Kiwanuka, Brittany Howard). As Dad guessed, these artists are amazing live. Caroline Polacheck - Thanks for doing it :) Yes, I’m also a huge Imogen fan, which is probably why I liked this.

2025-02-08 13:59:34 +0000 UTCONE SUGGESTION?? This is tough (I've edited my decision SO many times btw): -PC 53: "Q.U.E.E.N" Janelle Monet Ft. Erykah Badu
Tnulb
2025-02-08 13:38:29 +0000 UTCChloe X Halle are extremely talented sisters. They are mentored by Beyoncé and signed to her record label. I highly suggest you check out their live performances or their Tiny Desk…..Halle, was Ariel in the Little Mermaid live action remake. She has this enchanting, angelic voice that was perfect for the role.
Precious
2025-02-08 09:21:24 +0000 UTCGreat reaction! Loved the variety. Thank you for choosing my suggestion, ‘Can’t Get Out of This Mood’ Samara is really impressive. She was 21/22 when this album came out. The entire album is worth a listen. The song was written in the 40s and has been covered many times- including Sarah Vaughn & Nina Simone.
Precious
2025-02-08 09:06:08 +0000 UTCPC #53: Lupe Fiasco - Mission
