  1. I was late to the R.E.M party, having only listened to the odd tune here and there. That changed when I took the time to listen to Fables of the Reconstruction with no distractions. So, for the #TuneTuesday prompt #IGetItNow, I should go with that whole album.

    But not so fast! The first tune of theirs I remember getting into was Begin the Begin, which high school bandmates forced me to learn for a reunion on winter break of freshman year. It's my favorite memory of playing with those guys.

    Begin The Begin - R.E.M.

  11. Couple of friends are Sleep Token fans. I'd never heard of them, despite them having a huge fan base. I asked them to give me one song to listen to,they both said this one in unison. For #TuneTuesday #IgetItNow

    Sleep Token - Caramel

  15. The #TuneTuesday theme this week is #IGetItNow: songs that help you understand the appeal of an artist (or in this case, a record).

    For my pick, I’m going with Jimmy Cliff, “The Harder They Come” from the soundtrack album to the movie of the same name.

    youtu.be/BpQrLUopf-k

    I’d been aware of this album for decades but never bothered to listen to it because I couldn’t imagine a soundtrack could be THAT great. But it IS that great. Everything good about reggae condensed into 10 songs.

    Based on the radio, I thought country was about whining. Both the vocals and the instruments.

    Turns out, I like the outlaw side of country better. It's less pop and stereotype and more folk rebellion.

    It took me a long while to realize that the radio was not actually representative of genre. In fact, the radio typically foisted the status quo version of most things.

    Based on the radio, I thought R&B was mostly about generic hook ups.

  30. This week's theme is songs that made you realize why others liked an artist. As a young adult, I was perplexed by Björk. I dated a few women in the 90s who loved her and I was slow and uninterested in listening to much beyond my usual selection of punk and ska. And then I heard this song and my opinion shifted radically and has never gone back.

    Björk, "It's Oh So Quiet" (1995)

  35. Tune Tuesday's theme this week is I Get It Now, songs that make you realize why others like the artist.

    I can't really think of a specific artist, BUT I did used to have a huge Anti-bias against K-Pop boy bands.

    That was until I heard Shinee "Lucifer", and that song caused me to get rid of the ridiculous prejudice I had against boy bands.
