Good Riddance. Top Story - September 2023.
This began with a message from home. My brother and I have been sending each other messages on WhatsApp for some time now. Often, we talk about family, friends, politics, and just about anything that comes our way that we think needs a chat. The other day, my brother sent me a link to an article with the title: “Rolling Stone co-founder Jann Wenner removed from Rock Hall leadership after controversial comments”.

My Favourite Front Man: Honouring Steve Harwell
Today we wake to the news of 90s alt behemoth, and lead singer of Smashmouth ,Steve Harwell's untimely death. As I have talked about on these pages, I am a music nerd. I'll listen to anything once, and many things twice. A lot of things, several. I've played piano since I was a child, so the ear was prepped, but still, Smashmouth remains the most pleasing to the ear for decades, and true masters of the story song - genre jesters doing their thing on every single one of their tracks, whilst staying true to their 1960s, easy listening vibe, even incorporating ska and punk elements, with that 90s edge. To me, true pioneers.

THE RARE ERA
I am not quite the GEN-Z but I have heared people my age talking like ''which album of xyz artist are you living in or which era of tailor swift do you resonate with? (its majorly swifty friends that I have heard this from). When they ask me its hard to figure out because I live through different songs at different times in a day. In the morning I am like ''Now I'm shaking, drinking all this coffee , These last few weeks have been exhausting'' by Jeremy the evenings are like ''There's water in my boat , I'm barely breathin' , Tryna stay afloat , So I got these quick repairs to cope , Guess I'm just broken and broke'' by em beihold and finally the nights are complete playlist of sleep lofi. I think I have partial insomnia.

If You Don’t Read This …
If you don’t read this you will probably never know of these songs or these artists. People are often restricted by the media, what they grew up listening or other factors, I am the same, although Janelle Monae’s “Dirty Computer” is one of the most impressive albums I have ever heard and that is relatively recent but there will be none of that on here, this is taking you off the beaten path and down the unsigned road and I could drag in something for the #LikeNoOther series that I started on Seven Days In.
