Time for the last playlist of 2021. 11 songs this time, from artists as follows:
Kindsight – Don’t you grow up
Laura Ziani – Money
Gipsy Power – Magnetica Psychdelica
Dimma – Minnet
Trentemoller – Dead or Alive
Brimhein – hey amanda
Baron Bane – And the flare will spark
Arttu Silvast – On the nightline
Lasse Matthiessen – Rome
rafnar – Fae Or
Satre – Lonely Nights
They are all new tracks with the exception of Baron Bane’s ‘And the flare will spark’ (from a ‘Down Memory Lane’ feature) and Gipsy Power, whose song was written many years ago and recently re-released.
As a little bonus as there are few posts just now, here are a couple of ‘alternative Christmas songs’. The first one is an alternative to an alternative if you get my drift. The Pogues ‘Fairytale of New York’ is apparently Britain’s favourite Christmas song. Trouble is, well let’s put it this way. If Shane MacGowan can sing then I can.
I prefer this version by Norway’s Katzenjammer with Ben Caplan and the Trondheim Soloists.
The second one I alluded to a few weeks ago, namely Poly Styrene’s acerbic take on a Christmas multiple murder in Los Angeles by a guy dressed as Santa Claus, to a reggae beat!
